Adults need security blankets, too. And what could possibly make you feel safer than a never-ending blanket? The design duo at BCXSY brings you the Forever Blanket, modeled on the Möbius strip. It's billed as a pillow, mattress and blanket all rolled into one. Just wrap yourself up in the bright woven fabric and let the corn-fiber filling keep you warm. The blanket is part of Forever!—a product series that explores how to define the indefinable.

You may remember the yellow and black Onitsuka Tiger trainers in Kill Bill, but you don't have to be a movie buff to appreciate the company's killer sneaker vending machine. It hit London for three days in April, and it's slated to make an appearance in Manchester sometime this month. The machine, which can hold 24 pairs of shoes in six sizes, makes covering your feet as easy as getting a mid-afternoon caffeine fix … provided you don't factor in the frequent flier miles to try it out.

OK, it's really a T-shirt every six weeks club, but that just doesn't have the same ring to it. T-Post has been around for a while, offering a 26 Euros per T-shirt subscription that helps fend off laundry day. (Though for that price you could send out the wash.) The shirts feature wicked graphics based on news stories. One recent offering, for instance, hinged around research revealing that people don't like clowns … London-based artist Klaus Haapaniemi created a creepy—but not cliché—clown head for the shirt.
