What happens at night?
Tests have proven that in addition to harnessing energy from sunlight or artificial light, ThermalTech also has the ability to reflect your own body heat. This happens because of Infrared light, that cannot by seen by the human eye. The undetectable light can be transformed into heat. So when the sun goes to bed, ThermalTech works as a shield between the environment and while your body turns UV and Infrared light into additional body heat.
Does it work on cloudy days?
Yes!
What sizes are available?
Currently they are available in sizes S - XXL in Mens and Womens.
Are the jackets under warranty?
Yes there is a one year warranty.
How does the jacket prevent overheating?
The ThermalTech smart fabric prevents overheating by maintaining the temperature once the wearer reaches the optimal body temp. This is the same principal as how the body cools itself while exercising. At some point your body starts to expel and radiate the surplus of energy being created; the same happens with ThermalTech, its smart fabric technology understands when is time to expel energy once it had enough from the sun or artificial light.
Are they going to be machine washable or do they need to be dry-cleaned?Thermaltech is made of a finest stainless steel yarn which is thinner than two sheet of paper. It is machine washable, however for longer lasting jacket, advise not using bleach.Thermaltech has a long lifespan due its stainless steel material and its solar selective coating technology is not affected by being washed.
Do the jackets wrinkle when balled up?
We designed the jacket to travel with you anywhere -- on a long flight or packed in your backpack. The ThermalTech fabric is pliable and able to be squished and scrunched.
Are the jackets waterproof?
We use different fabrics in each of our collection, however all of them have water proof properties. Jackets are best in the light rain or with melting snow while skiing or snowboarding.

At the end of the campaign we will reach out to you where you will choose the color and size of the jacket you purchased.
