Aries Streetwear teamed up with Proton to create a first-of-its-kind Aries x Proton VPN Blanket. Designed to deliver comfort and digital access, this blanket includes an embedded NFC chip that activates a free month of Proton's Unlimited VPN service, which unlocks access to content from over 120 countries.
The blanket itself, touted as the world's first VPN blanket, is made from a blend of 80% wool and 20% polyamide, and offers more than a standard blanket gift that could be appreciated by anyone. This cozy, comforting blanket provides instant, unrestricted access to TV shows, movies and sports, appealing to digital nomads, travelers, expats, students and others who want to feel a sense of home even when they are separated by distance this holiday season.
