Staff Writer There was a time when air was all the rage in cushioning devices. Many of you probably remember the Reebok Pump sneakers that caused such a sensation back in the day, and Nike made similar waves with its Air line. It seemed for a brief moment there that air would soon become the only way to cushion anything. Resource!In fact, air has its drawbacks just like anything else. Gases are generally considered advantageous for certain situations because they do something most liquids will not: compress easily on contact. Of course that isn't an attribute gases alone can lay claim to, which is why high-density rubbers and gels are now making a comeback in many of the same products. Water is undergoing something of a renaissance as well, and for good reason. Unlike pliant air or slow-moving gels, water can migrate in a flash to different sections of a supportive device. That's why some of the most highly regarded new ergonomic products trade off between air and water in sophisticated designs that offer the best of both approaches. If you find yourself experiencing discomfort while driving, sitting or working at the office, you might want to check out some of these popular products. The best ones were designed to promote proper posture and keep blood flowing easily to your legs. If you come home sore every day, a better air cushion could be the solution you're looking for. |
