We’ve taken the puffer jacket – traditionally one of the weakest and most delicate pieces of clothing you can buy – and rebuilt it from the strongest fibre ever made. Every fibre on the outside of the jacket is up to 15x stronger than steel, so even if you were wearing a steel-plated jacket that was the same weight, the Indestructible Puffer would be 15x stronger.
The material we’ve used is so tough it was originally used in body armour, anti-ballistic vehicle armour, mooring systems for giant container ships, and ropes used to tie down oil rigs in violent, icy seas. In early tests the mooring lines were so strong they broke the machines that were meant to be testing them, and the body armour stopped bullets from a Kalashnikov.
So when we went to build the toughest puffer jacket ever created, there was only ever one material we could make it out of. Built to see you down to -40°C the jacket comes in one colour, black. And one mode, tough.

As we face life on Earth with new categories of weather, we’re going to need new categories of clothing. With extreme weather events on the rise for the last 40 years, and floods and fires sweeping across cities and states, “waterproof” is not enough.
The megastorms are coming. Describing it as raining doesn’t quite cut it when you see houses and cars floating down the road. So we’ve started working on clothing designed for a world of ultraviolent weather – a world where the sky starts acting more like the ocean, and atmospheric rivers dump tidal waves of water down on towns, cities and villages.
The Waterfallproof Puffer is designed to combat the megastorms of the future, where crazily intense rainfall and snowstorms become the norm. Highly waterproof to over 40,000mm, water can’t even stick to the outside of the jacket. It comes with a watertight chest pocket that we borrowed from scubadiving gear. And the insulation is embedded with aerogel – the lightest solid material in the world – to keep you warm down to -40°C.

Our 100 Year Sweatshirt turns one of the most comfortable pieces of clothing into one that can protect you at the same time. Sweatshirts aren’t normally known for their breathability, their insulating properties, or their ability to repel wind, rain and fire. But the 100 Year Sweatshirt is built for the toughest challe

We’ve spent more than 99% of our time on Earth as nomads. For over 2 million years we migrated across arctic tundra, grasslands and deserts, only carrying what we needed, only keeping what was necessary, and only using the things we had to hand.
Today the last remaining nomads roam the planet. Masters of surviving in harsh and fast-changing environments, they know what it takes to work with nature and leave no trace. So while the rest of the world remains underprepared for Earth’s increasingly volatile climate, nomads have always been ready.
Our Nomad Puffer Pants are built for the times where all you have are the clothes you have on, and every piece of gear has to work across multiple climates and terrain. Designed to recreate the feeling and performance of the original seal skin clothing worn by Arctic nomads, they're engineered to work like a second skin, protecting you from the wind, cold and rain.

Titan is Saturn’s largest moon. And one day it could be our next home. It comes with an atmosphere 4x thicker than Earth’s, and it’s only the second body in our Solar System known to have liquid on its surface – we live on the other one. So just like the Moon and Mars it has potential.
However, Titan is cryogenically cold. With average surface temperatures of -179°C, it’s twice as cold as anything recorded on Earth. It also has methane monsoons and cryovolcanoes spewing out jets of freezing hydrocarbon rain. So don’t book your flight just yet. As we continue to build clothing for planet Earth and beyond, embracing the challenges of Titan forces us to push the technological boundaries of extreme cold weather clothing.
It’s why the Titan Puffer comes with magnetic zips and emergency pull cords for blizzards. The inside of the jacket is made from the same extreme-strength parachute material used to land a probe on Titan and The Perseverance Rover on Mars. And we’ve tested it down to -100°C in a liquid nitrogen chamber.
