The interest is reportedly there; however, so is the doubt. Nevertheless, despite the supposed challenges facing ‘wearable technology’ it is something that most Americans (and, for that matter, citizens of the OECD) wear regularly e.g., GoreTex, synthetic materials, etc. Granted, these are more simplistic iterations of ‘wearable technology’ yet, they still qualify (and for those keeping score it also took time for consumers to adjust to wearing and fully embracing polyester for example… leaving whether it was ever stylish or not aside!)
