Tags: Airbreath linkage ventilation system, modular jacket, suitable for multiple weathers and scenarios, lightweight design, eco-friendly and recyclable materials, highly waterproof and moisture permeable
Production Technology: Airbreath:The breathable structure on the back and underarm areas of the protective layer, together with elastic knitted fabrics of the sports layer and thermal layer, forms a 3-layer linkage ventilation system to enhance comfort.
Materials: This jacket is crafted from 100 percent recycled polyester fabrics treated with PFC-free DWR. Each layer is filled with PrimaLoft Insulation with Ocean Bound plastic, and the single component material facilitates the garments' re-entry into the recycling system.
Design Challenge: Most garments might not be as warm and cozy as imagined even worn in combination, especially in harsh weather conditions. To this end, each layer of the Future Shell Modular Jacket utilizes a single material to enable different functions, combined with the elastic knitted fabrics of the thermal layer and the sports layer, hugely enhancing wearing comfort. This modular jacket allows for free combination based on needs, making it suitable for multiple weathers and scenarios.
Research: Research type: Children's outdoor garment
Research object: To create an all-weather outdoor functional garment with great comfort
Research result: This modular jacket consists of 3 functional pieces: protective layer, thermal layer, and sports layer, making it suitable for multiple scenarios. Together with the Airbreath linkage ventilation system, this modular jacket achieves constant and stable heat dissipation and air ventilation.
Inspiration: In the post-pandemic era, outdoor activities become increasingly popular, especially among children. However, there is no distinct boundary between children's daily and outdoor dressing, so choosing proper outfits for the children is a pain for their parents. Therefore, Future Shell Modular Jacket was born. Featuring a modular design and an innovative Airbreath linkage ventilation system, this jacket enjoys exceptional breathability and comfort, making it suitable for multiple scenarios.
Project Duration: The project will finish in September 2024 in Shanghai.
Operation Flow: The innovative Airbreath linkage ventilation system guarantees constant and stable breathability whether this modular jacket is worn separately or in combination, so children can choose single or multiple pieces based on weather conditions or the intensity of activities for more comfort. A large-size height adjuster facilitates the back hat's height adjustment. An inclined cuff adjuster ensures wearing comfort and easy operation.
