The Vollebak Full Metal Puffer is an outerwear garment that looks straight out of a science fiction franchise, but is actually built and constructed with the real world requirements of those exploring subzero environments. The jacket features a puffer-style design that's accented by a shimmering copper-colored fabric on the exterior that's actually made with 60% copper. The fabric is also paired with 20% polyamide and 20% polyurethane to allow for agile movement with wear.
The Vollebak Full Metal Puffer is paired with a waterproof yet breathable membrane and boasts 100% recycled down for the 700 fill insulation alongside a 100% recycled polyamide lining. The jacket is available now directly from the brand in a full size run and is priced at $3,495.
