Equator T Shirt
Designed to not stick to you, even in extreme heat.
- Made from ultrasoft Pima cotton
- Lightweight t shirt weighing 130 grams
- Highly breathable and cooling
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 our Equator gear is built to keep you comfortable in all 40,000km of one of the most extreme environments we currently inhabit, and one that’s set to grow. The Equator T Shirt is made from one of the lightest and softest fabrics on the planet – 100% Pima cotton. The silk-like fibres of Pima cotton are much longer and stronger than normal cotton, so they make a much softer, smoother, and more durable t shirt.
As temperatures rise, you’ll find it’s highly breathable, lightweight, fast drying and cooling next to your skin.
Martian Aerogel Jacket - Mercury edition
Made from two materials that land stuff on other planets as their day job.
Technical Details
Built with the same lab helping land Rovers on Mars
The story of this new aerogel started back in 2019 when one of our customers got in touch. It turned out that he worked with one of the most cutting-edge materials labs on Earth, and they were pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with aerogel. Based in California, AlphaTek Materials develops advanced materials for the aerospace industry. Right now they’re working with NASA on an ultra-high performance aerogel layer designed to protect the next Mars Rover as it bursts through Mars’ atmosphere at 2000°C.
It’s the lightest solid material in the world
To make our aerogel, Alphatek takes silica gel and puts it through an energy efficient process called ambient drying, which slowly extracts the liquid part of the gel without collapsing its structure. What you’re left with is a porous, sponge-like material that’s made up of 99% empty space. It’s why aerogel is only 3x more dense than air and the lightest solid material in the world.
Protecting the aerogel inside this jacket is an outer shell built with the only fabric currently on Earth, Mars and Titan – an extreme strength parachute used to land the first probe on Titan and the last Rover on Mars.
An aerogel hood and a two-way front zipper
The peaked hood is lined with aerogel insulation just like the rest of the jacket and tightens with a cord adjuster at the back. The cuffs tighten with metal snaps to create a seal around your wrists, while the hem can also be tightened with cord adjusters to prevent cold air from getting in at your waist. And the two-way front zipper comes fitted with an oversized pull cord so it’s easy to grab even when you’re wearing thick gloves.
