Skechers is making kids’ shoes with a hidden AirTag compartment

techcrunch.com Amanda Silberling 2025-12-24 17:13:18

Skechers introduced a line of kids’ sneakers that contain a hidden compartment where parents can slip in an Apple AirTag. Inside the heel of the shoe, a small insert can be lifted to reveal the compartment. Then, parents can track the location of their child — or, at least their child’s shoes. These shoes don’t come with an AirTag, and they don’t appear to be an actual collaboration with Apple, but rather, a third-party product that Skechers has developed on its own.

Meta has been on a bit of a tear lately, snapping up AI researchers from Apple and OpenAI on an express train towards… something? What that something is, only time and a watchful eye will reveal, but apparently, a part of that future vision is a smartwatch. According to a report from DigiTimes, Meta is working on reviving its plans to make a smartwatch with a camera on it, and that watch could be revealed later this year.

AIR lands $23M to bring its eVTOLs to the US

techcrunch.com Kate Park 2025-12-24 21:15:00

The combined forces of escalating geopolitical tensions and rising defense budgets are spurring many electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) makers to take a two-pronged approach to building their aircraft: crewed vehicles for personal or commercial taxi use, and uncrewed vehicles meant for logistics and defense purposes. AIR, an Israel-based startup developing eVTOLs, thought it prudent to adopt a similar approach from the get-go, designing both its uncrewed and piloted aircraft with the

US fertility rate fell to a record low in 2024, mirroring a global trend
