The indoor rower, foldable and multifunctional
A multifunctional fitness machine, compact, design and integrated into the interior decoration of the house. This is the goal of Miguel, Product Manager, and his design team, in creating the Woodrow. This indoor rower, which can also be used as a bench for weight training exercises, has a semi-leather covering that resists perspiration and makes it » almost invisible » in the House.
« There is also a support to put your phone in front of you, which can be connected to the machine »
» Once folded, we do not suspect that it is a sports device. It looks like a classic bench, measuring a meter long », Explains Miguel. Unfolded, the rower measures two meters and like the others, has an intensity adjustment. » There is also a holder to put your phone in front of you, which can be connected to the machine », Concludes the product manager. And the best of the best: thanks to its small rear wheels, it is easily movable.
Around € 1,000.
The cargo bike for the family
Able to support up to 170 kg, this perfect electric bike for families can accommodate two children thanks to two baby carriers on the back and two luggage racks (60x40x40 cm) on each side. Its autonomy amounts to 100 km and its starting aid means that it will not encounter too many difficulties in moving forward, once your foot is on the pedal. » We want to change the landscape of our cities. Families will no longer need to take the car. «
The runner’s shoe that respects the human anatomy
» We therefore wanted to make sneakers that prevent injuries while being as soft and flexible as possible to let the foot play its role of natural shock absorber. ”, Explain Jony and Bruno of the design team. The JogFlow, designed for wellness runners, meets these criteria. With its sole 40% more flexible than the old models, it ensures the safety of runners, » while respecting the morphology of the foot with an outsole cut along the lines of the arch of the foot « .
But innovation is also found in its ecological approach: » The upper is knitted in a zero waste approach, the sole is made from 20% recycled materials, and it consumes 13% less CO2 than current products », State the two designers.
Around 45 €.
Sailing to be towed everywhere in the wind
Wing 100 sail, can be used with skateboard, ice skates, rollerblades, etc. » Now anyone can ride in the wind, and anywhere. No need to be near the sea anymore », Explains Camille, the product manager. And the product is compactable, which allows it to be stored in a small bag … Easier to transport than a windsurf board or a boat.
Less than 100 €.
The football boot designed in one piece
» Customers
buy a pair of shoes expensive enough so that after a few months, it opens in two between the sole and the covering », Recount Charles and Thierry, of the design team. To improve the lifespan of the product, the team came up with the idea of making a shoe designed in thermoplastic, without assembly of components. » It follows the shape of the foot well, it’s comfortable, it maintains well, it is easy to put on and it is very resistant », Ends the duo. Made in France, it is also recyclable.
Less than 100 €.
The table tennis e-racket
Two years ago, Facebook launched the Oculus Quest, an autonomous and consumer virtual reality headset. A large community is then created, especially around virtual table tennis. » We really do sports with real movements! Says Jonathan from the design team.
Enough to motivate Decathlon to focus a little more on E-sport and in particular on E-pong. » The problem is that the levers are not adapted to the practice: we do not have the feeling of the racket in the hand. », He continues. Hence the idea of creating a racquet model, which integrates the controller, to play as in real life. The difference is that the opponent can be 10,000 km away and there is no longer a need for a ping-pong table.
Between € 10 to € 15.
