(ORDO NEWS) — The English company Vollebak has presented a super-functional protective jacket that will save its owner in the event of a global catastrophe or even the end of the world.
With such a jacket, no global catastrophe is terrible
The creators of popular films and TV shows often present the end of the world as an invasion of zombies that destroy everything in their path. In real life, such a scenario is hardly possible, however, due to climate change, slightly different stories are becoming more and more realistic every year. For example, massive fires have already become a modern agenda.
In this situation, the English company Vollebak decided to play it safe and developed a super jacket in advance to protect against any dangerous phenomena that a person may encounter in the event of a doomsday.
The jacket is made of a special polymer material that was developed back in the 1950s for NASA‘s Apollo space program. It uses polybenzimidazole (PBI) synthetic fiber, which can protect the human body from extreme temperatures (up to 1260°C).
Also, this fabric is incredibly durable, as it can withstand a force of 450 N or 45 kg. In addition, the jacket material can become a real shield, because it is not afraid of splashes of substances hazardous to the skin: oil, gasoline, sulfuric and nitric acid and caustic soda. It also has antimicrobial properties, UV resistance and high moisture resistance.
Vollebak thought out their jacket to the smallest detail – they equipped it with 23 pockets (on the back and sides), in which you can store your passport or birth certificate, clothes, maps, spare batteries, compass, duct tape, first aid kit, crossbow, mosquito repellent, matches, an axe, soap, a rope, a shovel, toothpaste, four liters of water, a signal mirror, a book and much more! In addition, any available insulation can be placed in these pockets if the end of the world happens in winter.
All pockets are closed with zippers, which perfectly hide them from prying eyes, so people may not even know that your seemingly unpretentious jacket is actually more spacious than a suitcase.
But the most impressive thing is the ability to turn your jacket into a sleeping bag. Just put soft materials in your pockets to make it comfortable to sleep – fortunately, the jacket has large pockets on the back, and a pillow can easily fit in the hood. So you don’t have to carry a separate sleeping bag with you.
By the way, about the hood. Its design was developed for the US Air Force in the 1950s. He was supposed to make life easier for the crews of aircraft carriers operating in strong winds and frost.
Such a hood can be tightly tightened, leaving only an opening for the eyes and breathing; it also has a metal wire sewn into it so that it can hold any shape.
The Vollebak jacket went on sale on February 2, 2022, which means you can get it right now.
