Brief history
The US entered WWI with pocket watches sewn into leather wrist straps to use as a new tactical edge. After the war, the world embraced this odd but new location for the watch. However, smartwatches are radically different from timepieces of 100 years ago and require more interaction.
The SHIFT band is the first watch band to challenge the status quo in 100 years. The innovative functionality will transform the power of the smartwatch for the running, cycling, and athletic communities, providing greater safety benefits, fitness value and high-performance interaction with easier viewing of key information during training.
About EdgeGear
Founded in 2014, EdgeGear believes technology for fitness should be designed with clever, convenient user-interaction at its core. Interacting with your smartwatch shouldn't have to be yet another piece of technology that requires bending in unnatural positions. The founders personally made over 20 prototypes, testing and iterating with professional runners along the way to what is now the only watch band on the market that puts your watch in line with your sight while running.
