The project

Project description.

Share this projectFacebookXLinkedIn
Wearing too many layers of clothing can restrict your movements and increase the risk of falling. With the HarnessWarmer, you can stay warm and sleek in a user-friendly way. Minimal construction, e.g. using interlacing adjustable straps instead of buckles enhances wearing comfort. The lightweight, breathable and washable patented smart textile is made of silver-coated conductive yarn and polyester yarn recycled from 2 PET bottles. It is fabricated by 3D seamless knitting with zero wastage to integrate sustainability in all aspects. It heats up in 30 seconds when plugged with a rechargeable slim power bank and is indiscernible from regular knits. The temperature will be around 104°F with a feeling like wearing a t-shirt under the sun at noontime. As the temperature sensation is very personal, the control and mobile app provide 5 heat-setting levels with a 15/30/60-minute timer.

Stay warm, sleek and stylish under your favourite fashion in chilly weather.
