If you're about to jet off into space, you might as well look the part!
3 prototype suits have been debuted at Spaceport America, Virgin Galactic's New Mexico launching station.
The three suits are mostly made up of Nomex - a tough, flame-resistant fabric similar to Kevlar body armour. Instead of the bright reds usually associated with Virgin, the space wear is made up of different black textures with zips running down the length of the suit.
The boots are also black, but provide a pop of colour through the blue Virgin logo on the tongues. Inside them, Adidas' AdiPRENE insoles ensure constant comfort.
I think this is a brilliant move on both Adidas' and Virgin's part - Space travel is looking more and more likely but predominantly only for the super rich. If you can afford to fly into space then surely you'd also be willing to pay a lot in order to look good?
What are your thoughts?
