管理历史
Vollebak is a London-based technical outerwear and sportswear brand founded in 2015 by twin brothers Nick and Steve Tidball (b. 1979). They previously worked together in advertising as an art director and copywriter team. This experience has informed the brand’s emphasis on single product launches rather than collections, and garments designed with specific functions or material properties. Designs have included the world’s first graphene jacket, a carbon fibre T-shirt, a solar-charged jacket that stores and re-emits light, a 100-year hoodie and a full metal jacket woven from over 11 kilometres of copper yarn. Time magazine named Vollebak’s solar-charged jacket one of the best inventions of 2018 and their full metal jacket one of the best inventions of 2020. In 2019 Satish Tailor (b. 1972) was appointed head of design, and in 2022 Vollebak received an undisclosed amount from the BFC Venrex Fashion Fund.

说明版块
说明
Ideal for extreme snow sports, but also worn by people for biking / general adventure use. The fabric doesn’t tear or rip at speeds of up to 120kmph [as tested by Schoeller]. The fabric retains heat so well because the ceramic doesn’t let heat out easily as opposed to other fabrics so is also designed with survival in extreme conditions in mind.
说明
The highly experimental construction process for this jacket was so technically complex it’s not possible to produce another run - it broke needles at the factory because the ceramic is so hard
