More sweat, fewer masks… is what we hope to see as more and more of us get vaccinated and get back to normal this summer. And here are the best 2021 summer invention designs from our clients out right now that will make your summer the most memorable one yet.
Ring Keeper
Deep-sea dives and off-the-trail hikes are some of our favorite summer activities, but it’s no place to bring a ring. Indeed, sweat and tough conditions can cause irreparable damage to your ring. Keep your rings safe with the Ring Keeper. It’s a leather zipper case with a tiny footprint but amazing durability. Measuring in at just 4 millimeters in diameter, the Ring Keeper is small enough to clasp on your keys, purse, or backpack to help ensure you’ll never lose your rings again. This 2021 summer invention design is the perfect mini-companion to take everywhere you go. as normally
CNCT
The quintessential summer invention design. Beach days and picnics aren’t just the same without a fully-loaded cooler. Inspired by Tesla, this cooler fits perfectly in your trunk. Rotomolded plastic throughout the walls and lid ensures your cooler is durable and keeps the continents stay ice-cold for up to two days. It recently won a silver at the Muse Design Awards. What stood out to the judges was the incredible way the handles gracefully eject from the inside of the cooler – just like the handles on Tesla vehicle doors.
Packhopper
This Red Dot winning bag needs no introduction. This 3-in-1 summer invention design holds everything you need on the court. The bag can hold two rackets, hundreds of balls and has plenty of other compartments to store snacks, water, and everything else you need for your next practice or tourney. Pop the top open and it becomes a ball hopper. And when you’re ready to clean up, simply roll the hopper on top of the tennis ball to pick it up. It’s that easy!It also comes in a deluxe model for super tennis enthusiasts.
