The iPhone of car seats

If you've ever wondered how they make orthopedic shoes cool, look at Hush Puppies. If you've ever wondered how they make a child's car seat cool, look at the one produced by Orbit. It's a whole system that comes complete with a stroller (the seat comes out of the submarine airlock-style base and plugs in to the equally stylish wheel carriage), which IS a great idea, but it's the seat I love. There are many cool strollers out there, but this is the iPhone of car seats.

I've met the people who make it and they are very nice Northern California-style low-key tech geniuses, young parents who were fed up with the options and the commitment of this particular and necessary item (you thought baby furniture was bad?) to the lowest possible taste level. For me, this product is iconic.

It's an amazing system that now includes a bouncer and soon an eco friendly pram. Thanks David!
