AMBIOTEX
Sportswear is a branch of
the massive fashion industry that’s often overlooked, even if much of the
innovation in a matter of materials and designs comes from pieces of clothing
designed with athletes in mind. One of the best examples is Ambiotex, a
high-tech brand designed with activity in mind. It combines the latest in
functional textile research with technology – its products come with integrated
sensors that capture the vital parameters of the athlete and a TechUnit that
can be attached to them simply and easily, with a magnetic contact. Plus, it
comes with a smartphone app that stores and analyzes the collected data in
real-time.
UNSPUN
Unspun
is not your usual fashion brand – it describes itself as a “robotics and
apparel” company. Their innovative approach to clothing takes the guesswork out
of clothes shopping: they manufacture each and every piece of their clothing to
the exact specifications of their clients. The company takes the clients’
measurements through their retail locations (they currently have shops in Hong
Kong and San Francisco) and build the
jeans to the clients’ exact specifications. Their ultimate goal is to reduce
the fashion industry’s impact on the world through “automated, localized, and
intentional manufacturing”, and to also make the best-fitting jeans on the
planet.
