Have you ever imagined yourself like this?

It's happening today!

With extreme temperatures in mind, we brought you the thinnest, warmest, and most fitted winter jacket ever made. This jacket consists of silica aerogel, the highly resistant and lightweight material researched and developed by NASA to insulate spacesuits.

We’ll take you from the highest peak of Everest to the coldest land in the Nordics, and everywhere in between.

No more bulky layers to stay warm! As thin as just two millimeters of foil, the aerogel filling will maintain your core temperature in any weather condition, ensuring complete comfort and protection for your next chilly adventure.

Aerogel is a synthetic material that is made up of 95-99% air. Extremely porous and very low in density, it boasts an incredibly low thermal conductivity, for an extraordinary insulating capability that exceeds even the warmest outdoor apparel.

Ultra-thin and ultra-light, the SiO2 aerogel composite material lays underneath your Boreas, allowing you to achieve outstanding heat retention in environments as cold as-40 °C/-40°F.

To test the Boreas, we sprayed it with -196 °C (-320.8) °F liquid nitrogen. After 60 seconds, its internal temperature remained at 28 °C (82.4 °F)!

Second test. We wrapped a piece of raw meat in a 1mm cut of aerogel, then soaked it in liquid nitrogen for 20 seconds.

The meat comes out of the aerogel wrap still springy and incredibly fresh!

The Boreas is designed to take you anywhere, in almost any weather condition. Dive with it underwater up to 100 meters — the Boreas will never let you down!

The Boreas is ready to take you through the most comfortable, safest, and definitely the driest outdoor adventure you have ever experienced.

Essential safety comes first. From the hood to the ribbed waistband, and down to the cuffs—every inch of the Boreas is 100% resistant to flames and ignition.

Coffee spills and grease stains will no longer ruin your day. The Boreas all-round resistance to stains will keep dirt away from your clothes, and from the fun!

Not enough? Well, we made the Boreas resistant to wrinkles and creases, too! It is a jacket designed to keep you comfortable and warm in any condition, at any time.

So much with so little—Only 660 grams of weight for its S size, lighter than two cans of soda, this is all you need to feel comfortable, warm, and protected.

The Boreas interior is fully covered with a film of the nano-silver coating.

Widely known for their anti-bacterial properties, the silver nanoparticles nested into the fabric can also enable the lining layer to reflect near-infrared wavelengths back toward your skin, maintaining the temperature inside the jacket while preventing the loss of body heat.

In addition to keeping the heat within, the Boreas allows you to breathe as you wear it. Specially designed to preserve a comfortable fit, it effectively prevents your body from overheating or sweating.

The battery-free thermometer, flexible and embedded inside the jacket, will help you monitor your body temperature anytime and anywhere, letting you explore safely and with total peace of mind.

The Boreas is much more than just a warm jacket! It is by far the most functional outdoor garment ever designed. 

Lost your gloves? The two aerogel-filled pockets, spacious and conveniently designed on the sides of your jacket, will keep your hands warm and comfortable even in the coldest winter conditions.

With these, plus as many as six added invisible pockets ready to store your everything, the Boreas will take you all equipped towards your next, thrilling adventure.

The double-layer curved cuffs, featuring blunt hook-and-loop straps to prevent abrasion damages and annoying pilling on clothes, will provide you with total freedom of wrist movement while engaged in sports activities or driving. The inner layer built-in bands, soft and elastic, fit perfectly on your wrist for added comfort and heat retention.

The Boreas comes with YKK zippers. Entirely made in Japan, YKK zippers are renowned for being highly durable and completely waterproof, preserving a perfect functionality even underwater.

Every built-in detail of the Boreas has been created to deliver the most fashionable, practical, and ultimately, the warmest outdoor garment ever designed.

It's always the same story—when packing for a trip, your bulky winter clothes will take up too much room in your suitcase. Well, Boreas is different! Portable and compact when folded, the Boreas will fit even the smallest space left in your backpack.

And the storage bag comes for FREE!

We research, develop, manufacture, and market practical outdoor clothing and footwear with an original design. In 2018, inspired by space technology, we started to design a jacket with "aerogel", the lightweight and low thermally conductive material used by NASA to insulate its spacesuits.

After two years of studies and tests, the Boreas jacket was finally completed in the fall of 2020. By selecting the finest materials, passing rigorous tests, and pursuing high standards of quality, Wen Times is committed to creating simple and innovative designs in performance clothing that define fashion as a tech item. We aspire to authentically express the perspective of the wearer through sophisticated and refined technology.
