June Bug Jacket

Iridescent prototype jackets for bug evasion. 

Our research, and that of our peers, suggests beetles use iridescence for predator evasion. We included this principle in our June Bug Jackets to evade the bugs themselves. Lightweight protection against UV, wind, and bugs. Built as prototypes for continued research.

• Full coverage, fully detachable, mosquito net hood.
• 40 million year old amber zipper pull

Size: One size fits all. On the larger side, but looks good and performs well when baggy.
