This is where science meets style.

Everyone from hobbyist tech nerds to your mom uses wearable technology, whether it's a safety measure or just an easier way to communicate. We're swimming in a sea of fitness trackers, moisture-wicking technology and 3D printed ensembles—but do these pieces of tech really speak to our sense of style? 

For those who don't believe function and fashion can co-exist, the following tech companies just might convince you science can be stylish.

1. The Ultimate All-Weather Coat 

Made of real wool, The Ultimate All-Weather coat repels water and wind, while the micro-fleece lining makes it soft and comfortable. This lightweight piece comes in a variety of sleek designs for both men and women.

Back this project on Kickstarter to get yours. 

2. The Greatest Pants Ever 

What's so cool about McMacular's pant collection? The silk-lining, for starters. Meant to keep you comfortable in all types of weather, these pants safeguard you from swap ass in the summer and frozen butt cheeks in the winter. Available for both men and women, they come in a variety of fits and colors to marry comfort and style.

Back the project here to get yours now.

3. Sparkle Booties 

CuteCircuit's Sparkle Booties are the stylish, grown-up version of your favorite light up shoes. These 4-inch works of art feature a metallic leather heel, ankle detail and toecap that illuminate when hit with direct light. 

They're the perfect way to have all eyes on you during your night out (and keep safe while drunk stumbling across the street).

4. Nadi Tights 

Nadi Tights will help you feel like less of a peasant in your hot yoga class. Thanks to the built-in tech in these tights, you can keep up with all the ripped babes in class. There's even an accompanying app that makes the tights vibrate at specific frequencies to help you work on perfect alignment.

5. NAVIGATE Jacket 

Your days of wandering the city like a lost puppy are over. Thanks to the NAVIGATE jacket, you'll be able to find your way without a phone or map to help you. Known as the urban wayfinding jacket, this red blazer has navigation built into the sleeves and the shoulders that vibrates or taps you on the shoulder to lead you in the right direction. 

6. K-Dress 

The K-Dress adds a special touch to formal wear—the pleated chiffon dress is built with hundreds of micro-LED lights in the fabric. This fun and flirty iteration of the K-Dress is inspired by a more formal version worn by Katy Perry to the MET Gala. The dress contains a snap-in controller that charges in just two hours using a USB, so you can sparkle all night. 

7. Ringly

Who says accessories can't be useful? Ringly's unique utilitarian vibe takes form in simple bracelets that double as fitness trackers, appointment keepers and social media managers. Using the Ringly app, each piece of jewelry syncs with your phone to remind you of upcoming deadlines, incoming phone calls and text and social notifications — so you can stay connected while looking fab. 

8. Mirror Handbag

The Mirror Handbag from CuteCircuit will make you want to throw the rest of your clutches to the way side. The laser-etched handbag lets white LED-lights shine through to display animations, messages or even Tweets, so you can up your follower count during GNO. You can get a version in ruthenium, palladium or gold.
