About XOSTORE

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

XOSTORE is an independent editorial publication based in Switzerland. We review products that were, at some point, science fiction.

This website is just for testing - nothing here is real. None of the product links lead to functional e-commerce sites, you can’t buy anything here, you can’t log in here. The products listed here include real and fictional products. Enjoy the fictional future.

Our coverage began with a simple observation: the gap between what appears in speculative literature and what appears on a shipping manifest has narrowed considerably. We find this worth documenting.
