Nilmance introduces its latest collection designed for the Fall/Winter 2021 season with a focus on modularity and its versatile capabilities to adapt to ever-changing environments. The pieces stem from a utilitarian design that features a unique blend of aesthetic and performance all at once.
The capsule is led by the MPK-02 Down Jacket and the MLJ-01 Parka. Both of these are made using OLMETEX® Resiste x TM Carbon materials. It is essentially a fabric made from threads garnered from a continuous filament of conductive material based on both textile fiber and active carbon. This essentially works to helps maintain one's body temperature during muscular contraction to help increase stamina and reduce lactic acid from building up.
