Product Details
＋This entire jacket is built from two materials that count ‘travelling through space’ as their day job. On the inside is a completely new type of aerogel built by the same team making the new aerogel heat shield for the next Mars Rover. Laser-drilled with hundreds of micropores it’s the first aerogel in the world that’s flexible, durable, and waterproof.
Protecting the aerogel is an outer shell built with the only fabric that’s currently on Earth, Mars and Titan – an extreme strength parachute used to land the first probe on Titan and the last Rover on Mars. The jacket’s soft metallic look, black contrast seam taping and zigzag stitching are based on the aluminised nylon and angled zippers of the early Project Mercury spacesuits. And the outer shell is designed with a transparent finish to create a window into the laser-drilled aerogel technology underneath.
