Many people turn to lounge wear when they wish to have some down time, but this hoodie for relaxing truly takes things to a new level by integrating color psychology to create a calming effect. From experimental adventure brand Vollebak, the Baker Miller Pink Hoodie is described as the world's first of its kind.

The hoodie for relaxing was conceived with athletes in mind, especially those who want to experience some tranquility after doing their sport. The garment is supposed to slow down the wearer's heart rate and breathing as well as minimizing the consumption of oxygen. It even uses built-in music to regulate and slow brainwaves down.

By fusing technology, psychology and physiology, Vollebak created a potentially revolutionary product.
