Whether you believe its climate change or not, we can all agree that every hot day recently seems to be the hottest day on record. The heatwaves aren’t limited to the dog days of summer as they used to be, now we’re feeling the heat and humidity throughout June, July, August and longer. It’s hot, humid, and muggy and feels like you just can’t cope.

How can you stay cool?

Don’t worry, fam. We’ve got four of our favorite product finds that will keep you cool no matter how much the sun blasts down and the wind seems to be blowing from an open oven door. There’s no need to just stay in front of your air conditioner, these will make sure you’re set to hit the streets and keep your cool.

Of course, the standard heatwave tips still apply. You’ll want to stay hydrated or find shade or sit under the AC, and beyond those basics, these are four of our favorites to enhance your heatwave experience and stay cool.

Embr Wave body temperature regulating wristband

Every time I think about this gadget I can’t believe it’s real. Seems like something straight out of scifi. Slip on this bracelet, the size of a large watch, select your preference and get cooled via the temperature conducting plate.

Reviews on their site say this thing really works. Picture yourself on your commute, on the metro and the heat is intense. There are people wall to wall and the vent above you seems to be blowing hot air. While some may resort to wearing gym clothes on the commute, that might not be an option for everyone. Especially if you’re heading to a client for a pitch or a job interview. Even in a suit, you’ll be feeling cool as a cucumber, enjoying this temperature regulating band on your wrist.
