Imagine a jacket that not only keeps you cool but also quenches your thirst for adventure...
This beer-powered jacket is a revolutionary fusion of fashion and function.
Check out this unique idea created by Tiger Beer and fashion designer Izzy Du:
Making a puffer for the summer is an external expression of how refreshing and cool it feels to drink a Tiger. I started with the feeling of opening an ice-cold can of beer and playing with the colours of Tiger Beer before imbuing the aesthetics of the puffer with a new function.- Izzy Du
This eye-catching design with a neon orange hue is the perfect example of practical innovation.
Designboom states: "The design team looked into the same technology that keeps astronauts cool in extreme temperatures and experimented with tube placements, materials, water tank designs, and electronic wiring to produce the cooling jacket."
