When crazy ideas work, they can be genius. And if that little spark of genius makes our working day just that little bit easier to get through, it’s got to be applauded and shared.
So, without further ado, we bring you the foot hammock. With benefits for your physical and emotional well-being, there’s never been an easier way to rest your body and your mind while at work.
Simply called the Füüt, this cute little hammock comes in six different colours: orange, navy, green, pink, yellow and white.
Despite the Scandinavian-sounding name, the product is actually designed and produced in Korea.
Easy to use, the foot hammock comes with two hooks which easily clip onto the side of your desk, and adjustable ropes allow the height to be changed for comfort.
The two heights are good for work and play, encouraging circulation throughout the day.
Available online for US$30, it’s a small investment towards happy holiday feet, every day of the year!
