It demonstrates the designer’s architectural background. I just wonder whether it meets building codes.

You can also use it to erase your dry erase or chalk board.

I just ordered one. Those things are awesome and definitely worth the international shipping costs.

This product makes me think the time is ripe for the iSock. Just drop yer pod in one and go—Comes in sets of two, with designer names like Nike, Adidas, etc… Under ten bucks for the pair—and you can use the extra as puppet!

This has got to be the most ridiculous thing you’ve ever put up on here.
“Architectural” my arse - when did you ever see a building made of felt?
