- Ultra lightweight weighing 200 grams
- Made with silk-like cotton from the Nile Delta
- Advanced ventilation system with 18 concealed air vents
Home to some of the hottest and most humid places on the planet, the equator carves through dense tropical jungles, warm seas, and crowded cities. Instead of seasons or temperature changes you’re more likely to be hit by a wall of heat, sun, rain and humidity. But as global temperatures rise and climate zones shift, designing clothing for the equator is like designing for our future.
So the Equator Shirt is built to keep you comfortable in all 40,000km of one of the most extreme environments we currently inhabit. The shirt starts with one of the lightest and softest fabrics on the planet, a rare, silk-like cotton from the Nile Delta. We then turned this into a phenomenally lightweight technical shirt by adding stretch, strength and UV protection. And with every detail designed to keep you cool, we engineered the shirt with the most advanced ventilation system we’ve ever made – 18 concealed air vents built with laser cutting and super soft Italian mesh that work together like built-in air-con.
Black Algae Dyed T Shirt
Made with seaweed from Icelandic fjords, and the world’s first black algae dye.
Technical Details
The first piece of clothing dyed with black algae
Over the last few years we've been working with US biomaterials company Living Ink to accelerate the adoption of black algae as a way to colour clothing. After their founders Scott and Steve discovered that an algae cell is almost identical in size to a carbon black pigment, and can create the same colour, they’ve been on a mission to replace carbon black with black algae waste. Now, after 5 years of R&D and lab testing, this t shirt represents a major breakthrough on the journey – the first piece of clothing ever to be dyed with black algae.
Our intensive R&D process didn't stop with the dye
We carried out 6 months of lab tests to successfully dye our t shirt, trying different fabrics, dyeing temperatures, and pigment concentrations, before finding the perfect combination.
