Vollebak Leather Shielding Jacket Blocks Radio and Microwaves

The Vollebak Leather Shielding Jacket is a deceptively simple outerwear that hides advanced construction details that position it as perfect for offering protection from unwanted electromagnetic exposure. The jacket is listed with an electromagnetic shielding material that's similar to what's used in Mars rovers and is infused with pure silver to block out radio waves and microwaves in the 30MHz to 10GHz frequency range. The silver material also helps to keep the garment fresh with everyday wear thanks to its antimicrobial profile.

The Vollebak Leather Shielding Jacket is accented by a concealed phone pocket that acts as a Faraday cage to render the device not functional when stowed. The garment is constructed with Nappa sheep leather that has been vegetable-tanned using plant-based tannins.
