I have the Performance MX and have used it for 3+ months. It’s a great mouse, however the battery life is pretty terrible. I think I can maybe get a full week out of it before having to charge it. I DO use it continuously for about 9+ hours a day though, so that might have something to do with it. Read more

Hehe, own the G502 as my primary mouse and M510 as my travel mouse. Read more

I stand with the DexFlex shoes. I brought two pairs with me to Sudan, and they were the only shoes that stuck with me through that 9 month experience - the rest, mostly more expensive, all succumbed to the heat and sand and general muck of the country. I wound up throwing mine out to make space in my bags (and to be Read more

Thumb trackball for life, just wish they would make a gaming version.

While I like trackballs, I despise Logitech’s thumb ball approach. Kensington’s expert mouse blows this out of the water from my perspective. I find the ball on the Logitech hard to control with my thumb as compared to any trackball that allows me to use my fingers to roll the ball. I used a Microsoft Trackball Read more

I love how ballet flats look but hate, hate how they feel, especially trying to get through the city. I usually buy a 1/2 size up or gamble on them fitting in those thin foam insoles sold by CVS (they now have varieties that stick into the show—bonus). It still gets too hot. Read more

I’ve got the MX Performance. It’s a great mouse. Bought it five months ago, and let me tell you: I wish I got the 510 or the the 705. Read more

My personal favourite mouse for a long time was the Razer Naga pre-2014 edition. With the 12 side buttons, I customized them to make casual browsing and word editing heavenly. I could cut, copy, paste, New Tab, Close Tab, Refresh, Forward, Back, etc. The possibilities were endless. Read more

I love the M510....but is it a desktop mouse? I keep mine in my bag for use on the go. If I’m at a desk regularly, I go wired over wireless (MX500) so I don’t have to bother with whether the batteries are charged or not. [I still voted for it because at $20 —- sometimes less on sale —- it’s still one of the best Read more

The M705 is definitely a good one. I think I got mine for like $30 too, it’s not expensive:)

This kinja co-op has made me glad that payday’s around the corner (for me). I like that comfort factor was considered by all of the entries, and I can’t wait to get some of those Bloch flats into my shoe rotation. Read more

I’m a fan of the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0. It used to be pretty highly recommended too.

Definitely can’t stand normal flats (they drive my giant flat feet crazy), but these are my favorite substitute:

I own multiple pairs of Lucky Brand Emmie Flats. I wear them so much (like every day) that I eventually wear holes into them and then immediately go out and buy new ones. Price is good too.

I tried everything “natural”, and all left me red and burned. Even Tom’s (I still shudder thinking about the hours-long sting from their lemongrass variety). This was my last resort, and it was life changing. Strongly recommended: Read more

I’m a video editor and I’m thinking about getting a fancier mouse with MORE BUTTONS to make my life easier. Something similar to a gaming mouse, maybe? Read more
