Modern problems require modern solutions. Meet the Just5, a jacket that was built to act as PPE, with the ability to self-sanitize in just 5 minutes. The entire Just5 jacket comes treated with HeiQ V-Block, a coating developed by Swiss company HeiQ, that neutralizes microbes using silver and cosmetic-grade liposomes. In short, every inch of the jacket has the ability to break apart microorganisms like bacteria and viruses, keeping the jacket sterile at all times. The HeiQ V-Block technology is compliant with EU BPR and was first launched to be applied on medical class 1 face masks, and comes with registration from the US EPA.
Designed as a piece of apparel fit for the times we’re currently in, the Just5 jacket comes outfitted with features you need to keep you safe. An integrated hood and visor allow you to cover the upper half of your face without compromising visibility, while the jacket itself comes with its own Type 2R mask, that protects your nose and your mouth. Given that hands remain one of the most vulnerable parts of the body when it comes to picking up pathogens, the Just5 jacket even has extendable hand-shields that pop out from under the cuff. Crafted from warp knitted elastic fabric, these shields stretch out from inside the sleeve to cover your hands as you hold onto handles, touch keypads, or do anything that may risk getting your hands infected.
Even the jacket’s zippers come with the HeiQ V-Block tech, to keep every inch of the jacket safe. Zippers on the outside provide storage as well as the ability to access elastic pull-tags that help tighten the jacket around your waist. On the inside, the jacket has a dedicated pocket for carrying a sanitizer, a separate pocket that holds a self-sanitizing microfiber cloth for cleaning your spectacles, and lastly, an integrated inner pouch that allows you to pack the entire jacket into it for easy carrying.
However, these features don’t limit the Just5 to a specific scenario. The jacket is still ideal for even wearing outdoors while camping or on a trek. The outer fabric and zippers are waterproof, keeping you and your belongings dry at all time, while remaining breathable and thermo-regulating, to keep you internally cool when it’s hot out. The jackets come in three styles, for men, women, and children, across 4 different colors and a variety of sizes. Designed in Italy, the jacket keeps fashion requirements in consideration (after all, it is a garment designed to be worn in public), with a timeless cut that covers you from your head to your knees… keeping you protected from not just the elements, but from diseases too!
