INTELLIGENT FABRIC

INTELLIGENT FABRIC

Following SS’09’s Cool Effect blazer, Zegna’s out with another tech-fuelled breakthrough.

Italy’s Ermenegildo Zegna is best known for its exquisite fabrics and this season it is back with some bold innovations, like this baby—the ‘Elements’ jacket. The outer fabric of the jacket is adorned by the brand’s very own Micronsphere technology, which makes it resistant to creases and stains as well as making it waterproof.

Elements is an all-weather jacket and it automatically adapts to the climate you might be in, thanks to another bit of tech—a heat sensitive design called the “pine cone effect”, which opens and closes the pores of the jacket depending on the temperature.

That’s just the tech. The jacket is nicely structured, with a detachable fur lining around the collar. Sure to turn heads.
