This jacket grows in trees.
London-based experimental clothing laboratory Vollebak, published prototype clothing made of wood panels covered in one piece. The wooden jacket of long-sleeved-hooded men turns a tough material into a feature of fashion design, hard and stylish clothes.
When available, the jacket will be sold for $ 3,295. “When they grow up” you have a waiting list, “said Villebak.
Jacket is parsetal for the course for the course of the dresses with durable materials. The company has developed a sweater made of natural fibers, which is grown by a hoodie and a petry dish, which is a broken hood, made of pomegranate shells and a 3D weaving machine.
Of course, wood pullet can be used to make fibers like viscous and Lyocell, which can be brought into fabric for clothing. What makes the vollebak’s jacket unique is that it is not done with plant fibers removed from the tree. On the contrary, the wood is made of himself.
The key to the function of the wooden jacket requires closely inspection. Although natural grain appears to have a solid wooden pattern of the prototype fabric show, the textured pattern is actually a healing net of small squares that gives the comfort of clothing. Prototype design also offers two front patch pockets and zippers.
On the website, Vollebak, the wooden jacket just said he was preparing to prove it, “he said,” he said, “it’s a difficult technical problem in a jacket that turns a tree into a jacket. . . . The technical problems to solve us, then to solve, but the technical problems that will remain completely theoretically. ”
