There have been a few improvements made to our carbon fiber mousepad. The original version used a standard plain weave carbon fiber, which looks great but does not “pop” as much as a twill weave (diagonal). As you may imagine, the new version now uses a twill weave:
Here’s a picture comparison of the old vs. new weaves so you can see the difference:
On the old version, the mousepad was thin and had little nubs on the back to keep it in place. The new version has been thickened up by using an EVA foam, like you would see on a lot of standard mousepads. This gives it good traction to your desk and provides a sturdier feel and more of a standard mousepad look.
The exterior has a special coating which allows it to work great with optical or trackball mice so you can play your games…err…do your work as efficiently as possible. Lets face it, many of us spend a very large portion of our time sitting in front of a computer. For those of us with a good sense of modern and high-tech design, a carbon fiber mousepad is a must-have desk accessory.
