Nobody likes to sweat whenever they aren’t exercising or chillin’ out in a sauna – which is why summers, on one hand give you plenty of sunlight, but on the other tend to make you sweat a whole lot more than intended. The summers in Japan (Tokyo, especially) aren’t too forgiving either, being rather hot and humid, not to mention if you’re an office drone who needs to wear your suit all the time. Good thing major Japanese fashion store chain Aoki has thought of a rather novel solution, the Premium Air Cool Suit that was developed in a partnership with Shinshu University where the fabric is concerned, as it will filter out infrared and ultraviolet rays. This means your body will not heat up too easily compared to a standard suit, while letting you have a body temperature which is 10 degrees Celsius lower in comparison. These suits aren’t going to come cheap though, as Aoki has slapped a price tag from $630 all the way to $820 as these suits roll out next month. Now’s a good time to be a lady, since a special version for the ladies cost just $345.
