Pangaia’s puffer jackets are filled with wildflowers rather than down
Neat concept! Write-up via dezeen.
US clothing brand Pangaia has released a puffer coat, whose filling is made with flowers in a bid to offer a cruelty-free alternative to duck or goose down.
The stuffing, called Flower Down, was created over 10 years of research and development and combines wildflowers with an aerogel and a biopolymer to create a durable thermal insulation material.
This is contained in a quilted shell made from recycled polyester, which is rendered in classic black, white or navy.
