That's about gen 1, gen 2 is vastly more successful


Is it? I've seen zero people wearing them in central london.


I haven't noticed anyone wearing them in real-life, despite walking every day in a concentration of university/college campuses (Harvard Square, USA, and surrounding neighborhoods, sometimes including MIT).

I've only noticed some influencers wearing them in Web videos, where they look prominent, like I should also be able to recognize them in-person.

Maybe people are only wearing them at home or in the office? Maybe it's mostly a California techbro regional thing?

Maybe I'm not paying enough attention. I will start consciously looking for them.


I've ever seen them in the California Bay Area either. I don't go into the office for my current job, though, so maybe there are some tech bros out there wearing them?
