Stretchy Stain-Repelling Suits

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The X Suit is Wrinkle-Resistant, Odor-Resistant and Comfortable

— July 17, 2017 — Fashion
The 'X Suit' is a stain-repelling suit infused with nano molecules that make it liquid-, odor- and wrinkle-resistant.

The X Suit has an anti-microbial lining that lets the wearer stretch and move without having to worry about emitting odor. This stain-repelling suit is so good at what it does that a whole glass of red wine can be poured directly on the suit and it will wipe away clean. The X Suit can also be stuffed into a bag for on-the-go use and it won't wrinkle or become creased.

This high-tech suit was recently launched on Kickstarter and has already exceeded its funding goals. The X Suit comes in two styles -- a corporate option with fine tailoring details and a sport option with a detachable hood and casual cuffs. Both are available in a light gray and black but a charcoal option will become unlocked if Kickstarter funding reaches $750,000.
