A computer mouse made from wool felt, teak, and aluminum.

This prototype will be show for the first time on Friday May 13 – Monday May 16, 12PM to 7PM daily, as part of the American Design Club’s exhibit “Use Me” at 45 Great Jones Street.

Looks mushy...

And uncomfy...

But nice design I must say, or is it? hmmmmm

Looks like a hipster friendly pointing device.

I have felt better.

But assume the Irish and Welsh will love it. They like the feel of sheep.

I wonder why someone shoved a dime between the buttons.

It's a Dime Check! - Tighter than the buttcheeks of the current group of Geekhackers.

It looks like it should be used to clean chalkboards

Looks like it would work great on dirty tables, killing 2 birds with one stone

Hmm....
I would never use such anti-ergonomic thing.

Haha awesome.

Doesn't look very comfortable though.

OMG, it's disgusting, I wouldn't ever use it :$

I thought this was a mod or something, but they're SELLING this?! Why would they ever think someone would buy something made out of recycled materials! Although the brushed aluminum does look decent though.

Methinks these mice are meant for the hipster kind, for these are utterly impractical.

Can you get those things somewhere? I would love to try them out. I don't quite agree with this mouse being utterly impractical. Certainly, I would not want to use it when playing a game or needing to use programs relying heavily on mouse-interaction (I guess, CAD-programs, Photoshop). But for normal day-to-day use, such as Internet, etc? I could imagine this thing to feel nice (wool felt is a great material!).

Maybe they could make a design that is just slightly more ergonomic (i.e. fitting the shape of your hand).

I could see the design being an interesting (albeit odd) comfortable mouse if they bothered with contouring the thing.

Oh, and no or very little wool felt on the mouse buttons, that'll just make it mushy.

Sorry but that's really poor "design", has it any redeeming features at all? Can't imagine anyone actually buying it.

Thats pretty horrible..... just imagine how that will smell after you sweat an entire summer in that thing... I bet its not even machine washable (even on a mild wool program LMAO )

But yeah, i bet there's plenty people who would digg such a thing (to go with their goat-wool socks, thrift-store 4th generation hand down jackets and hair that has not been cut or washed since woodstock).
