Do you think it is possible to mix technology and fashion? The 21st century proves that clothes that work as electronic gadgets are our future. This type of clothing is called smart clothes (other names are high-tech clothes or smart textiles, etc.). Smart clothes are made from new technological textiles, that’s why they can do many different things. Usually, smart clothes have a lot of smart sensors that collect information about your body, health, or how active you are during the day. Moreover, smart clothes can connect to apps or smartphones and laptops via bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
Nowadays, there are a lot of different types of smart clothes, for example, smart socks, smart sportswear, smart sleepwear, smart shoes, or smart casual wear. Smart clothing fashion is becoming more and more popular. Even some of the biggest tech companies in the world, such as Google and Samsung, start making clothes using smart textiles.
As for the price, of course, smart clothes cost a bit more money than traditional clothing because technologies are always expensive. For example, if a traditional jacket costs 100, a similar smart jacket can cost between 200 and 500. However, if you want to buy cheaper smart clothes, don’t go to official websites of smart clothes companies — look for them on online marketplaces such as Amazon or AliExpress.
