The jackets are </span><a href=https://www.designboom.com/tag/fashion-technology/ ><b>fabricated</b></a><span style="font-weight: 500;"> using two materials that NASA employed during its missions. The parachute one is for the exterior design, while the inside of the jackets, Vollebak adopts laser-drilled aerogel built by the same team that makes the space agency’s heat shield to protect the Mars Rover from the planet’s 2000-degree Celsius temperature. </span></p><p> </p><p><span style="font-weight: 500;">Vollebak, who has also created </span><a href=https://www.designboom.com/technology/vollebak-firefly-jacket-color-shifting-membranes-03-15-2024/ ><b>solar-charged</b></a><span style="font-weight: 500;"> jackets and </span><a href=https://www.designboom.com/technology/vollebak-solar-charged-hat-store-sunlight-glow-in-the-dark-11-05-2023/ ><b>hats</b></a><span style="font-weight: 500;">, describes its silica aerogel material as flexible and waterproof because it can be soaked or compressed in water and still insulate up to -20 degrees Celsius. The trick, they say, is by combining it with organic foam to produce a two-millimeter-thick and water-resistant sheet, subjected to laser drilling to fabricate micropores for breathability. This technique makes up the inside of Vollebak’s Martian Aerogel Jackets, fending off extreme cold so the wearer can still stroll around blizzardy conditions all warmed.</span></p><p><img fetchpriority=high decoding=async class="wp-image-1099338 size-full lazyload" src=data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 alt="vollebak martian aerogel jackets NASA" width=818 height=546 data-src=https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/vollebak-space-parachutes-NASA-rover-mission-martian-aerogel-jackets-designboom-01.jpg data-srcset="https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/vollebak-space-parachutes-NASA-rover-mission-martian-aerogel-jackets-designboom-01.jpg 818w, https://static.designboom.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/vollebak-space-parachutes-NASA-rover-mission-martian-aerogel-jackets-designboom-01-768x513.jpg 768w" data-sizes=auto loading=lazy><br>all photos by <a href=https://www.sunlee.biz/ target=_blank rel=noopener>Sun Lee</a>, courtesy of Vollebak</p><p> </p><p> </p><h2 class="wow wow-yellow"><b>NASA’s nylon-spun parachutes for martian clothing</b></h2><p> </p><p><span style="font-weight: 500;">It’s not enough for Vollebak to use the laser-drilled aerogel built by the team working with NASA. The </span><a href=https://vollebak.com/ target=_blank rel=noopener><b>brand</b></a><span style="font-weight: 500;"> wants to tie their Martian Aerogel Jackets to the space agency’s Mars mission by using the material that their space parachutes have. It’s not about an homage, but practicality because there’s already an amount of time and money spent into the research and development of this fabric, so they’re durability and materiality may already be proven.</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="font-weight: 500;">The parachute is made of heat-proof nylon spun at high speed before being washed, colored, processed, and finished. They’re lightweight and can weather extreme heat, and they’re baked at 135 degrees Celsius to kill the microorganisms that might contanimate them. This specific fabric is what NASA used to land the first probe on Titan and the recent Rover on Mars. For the excess parachutes that didn’t make it out of Earth, they found their homes in Vollebak’s hands, who put them into use as the outer shell of their Martian Aerogel Jackets. So far, Vollebak’s Martian Aerogel Jackets are available in Rover Orange, Stealth Black, and Mercury colors.</span></p><p></p><p><img decoding=async class="wp-image-1099339 size-full lazyload"
