If you are looking for a high-tech dependable waterproof, breathable and ultra lightweight jacket you may be interested in the Graphene-X which has already raised over $300,000 thanks to nearly 1,500 backers. “Can you imagine wearing something 200x stronger than steel, lightweight as a feather, flexible, impermeable, breathable and waterproof… that also looks stylish… well, this is what it looks like”.
Earlybird pledges are available from £195 or roughly $249 with worldwide shipping expected to take place during March 2020. Check out the introductory video below to learn more about the design of the Graphene-X jacket and its features.
“The Alpha Series is the graphene-integrated all-around jacket that sets a new standard for versatility, performance and comfort. The jacket sports a stylish, minimalistic design thanks to the integration of a graphene layer that makes it waterproof, lightweight, breathable, durable and more.”
“Today, our Alpha Series jacket uses 65% of polyamide (plastic) in its construction (compared to other top performing jackets which have between 95% and 100%). Our goal in time is to reduce this % as much as we can without sacrificing comfort and performance. Eco Bionic coating: PFC Free coating (Eco-friendly) which repels water with no added chemicals. In the outdoor industry, PFCs are common in water-repellent finishes (DWR) . Most DWR coatings contain fluorocarbons or PFCs that have been shown to be a hormone disruptor, like BPA.”
