A Parisian fashion company has come up with a permanent cure for slouching. The Up T-Shirt, from Up Couture, incorporates elastic fabric across the shoulders in such a way that good posture is rewarded by -greater comfort. A lot of extra sewing is required, so prices are steep even for Up Couture’s simplest men’s and women’s tees. “Of course, depending upon how badly you find yourself hunching over during the day, the price tag might well be worth it.” Not only could an Up shirt stop your mother’s nagging about slouching, it could save you from years of back pain.From $145, upcouture.com
