Summer is almost here and the warming temperatures are drawing athletes from the gyms back out into the great outdoors. Whether you’re a runner, cyclist, or hiker, traditional workout clothing can result in a number of unfavorable situations including overly sweating clothes, bad body odors, skin irritations, and sunburn. The biggest problem is trying to stay cool when those temperatures soar and increased humidity makes it feel even hotter. The CoreSport workout shirt is a unique product that cools you down the more you sweat.

CoreSport is the ultimate workout shirt for outdoor activity featuring moisture-activated cooling, quick- drying fabric, and calorie-burning technology. It is breathable and also odor and ultraviolet-resistant — serving as a solution to all of the problems presented by traditional workout clothing. CoreSport works because of the integration of Specific Heat Capacity yarn and special fibers that absorb perspiration and moisture. The company touts the shirt stays at least eight degrees Fahrenheit cooler than conventional clothing. CoreSport supposedly reduces skin temperature by 30 percent which subsequently lowers overall core body temperature. The back of the CoreSport shirt features mesh mixed with zinc for excellent breathability and the capacity to enhance the rate of calories burned.

In addition, the fabric reflects a significant amount of UV light and is infused with minerals serving for antibacterial properties and odor resistance. All of these characteristics combined make for an ideal shirt for summer activity. Although it’s not the company’s first campaign — this is the highest profile campaign to date, featuring the latest version of the technology and the backing of MP MeltMall.

The CoreSport workout shirt is comprised of 140D fabric combining 95 percent polyester and 5 percent Dacron mesh cloth. Integrated bamboo charcoal fibers serve for moisture absorption, antibacterial properties, and deodorization. UV resistance is provided by composite powders including zinc, copper, phosphorus and other microelements. These microelements also activate cell tissue and reduce the growth of bacteria which reduces the probability of odor and rashes associated with sweating.

Although crowdfunding products are not guaranteed, this company has had a successful track record with campaigns of this kind. A $40 pledge on the company’s Indiegogo page awards you the best chance of getting your hands on a CoreSport workout shirt.

Best pressure washer deals: Up to $110 off Greenworks and Kärcher

The Greenworks GPW3001 Pro electric pressure washer, placed outside.

If you've been on the internet and seen a bunch of pressure washer clips and are now considering grabbing one yourself, you'll be happy to know that there is a huge range of them to pick from. That includes some great budget-oriented versions to dip your toe in and are still good for cleaning stains and cleaning up stuff. That's why we've gone out and collected some of our favorite washer deals for you below, including some of the best pressure washers for cars, which you do have to be a bit careful with not to strip the paint or clearcoat.
Greenworks Pressure Washer Combo Kit -- $110 $220 50% off

While this Greenworks power washer doesn't have as high a PSI, around 1,900 PSI, it is a lot more portable and a great option if you want something that's smaller and easier to take around with you. It comes with a 35-foot power chord and a 20-foot hose, so you get quite a bit of distance. If you are somewhere rural and need to clean stuff that doesn't have a power cable nearby, this is perfect. Besides that, we also appreciate that this comes with an 11-inch surface cleaner, which isn't something common with a lot of other power washers, even more expensive ones. Just be aware that you do need a My Best Buy subscription to be able to get the discount.

Juiced Bikes sold at auction for $1.2 million, report says

The Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 adds more power, upgraded tires, and an improved battery to the popular moped style e-bike.

Juiced Bikes, the San Diego-based maker of e-bikes, has been sold on an auction website for $1,225,000, according to a report from Electrek.Digital Trends recently reported how the company was showing signs of being on the brink of bankruptcy. The company and its executives had remained silent, while customer inquiries went unanswered and its website showed all products were out of stock. In addition, there were numerous reports of layoffs at the company.Yet, the most convincing sign was that the company’s assets appeared as listed for sale on an auction website used by companies that go out of business.Now, it appears that Juiced Bikes’ assets, including a dozen patents, multiple URLs, and the company’s inventory in both the U.S. and China, have been sold at auction, according to the report. It is likely that the buyer, who remains unknown, can capitalize on the brand and the overall value of the 15-year old company. Founded in 2009 by Tora Harris, a U.S. high-jump Olympian, Juiced Bikes was one of the early pioneers of the direct-to-consumer e-bike brands in the U.S. market.
The company had quickly built a reputation for the versatility of its e-bikes and the durability of their batteries. Over the years, the popularity of models such as the CrossCurrent, HyperScrambler, and RipCurrent only bolstered the brand’s status.Last year, Digital Trends named the Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 as the best moped-style e-bike for 2023, citing its versatility, rich feature set, and performance.Juiced Bikes’ getting sold quickly might be a sign of what consulting firm Houlihan Lokey says is a recovery in the North American e-bike market.
The industry has had a roller-coaster ride during and after the COVID-19 pandemic: A huge spike in demand for e-bikes had combined with disrupted supply chains to create a supply/demand mismatch of “historic proportions," Houlihan Lokey said.
