The Technical Garments Collection by Norse Projects

We love it when a great brand thinks hard about what our wardrobes may be missing. So when Danish wonder brand Norse Projects released their latest technical offering, we were pretty psyched.

The technical garments collection includes five key Norse pieces that have been reworked to serve us active urbanites. Created with city conditions in mind, the collection is just as useful for everyday use as it is for keen runners. Though, we see it working best as your reliable exercise outfit that packs down to take up minimum space in your work bag, ready for a run home or a after work soccer game.

The collection includes two outerwear options, the Balder Windbreaker and the Jens Light shirt. The Balder is windproof, water resistant and packs down into the front pocket for super easy storage. It’s also cut with a shorter fit to allow greater movement when running or cycling. The Jens is a great lightweight option for all seasons. Featuring thin Primaloft® thermal insulation, you’ll probably end up wearing this little baby all year round.

For those who sweat profusely during exercise, the bonded mesh pieces are a godsend. Lightweight and ultra absorbent, the hoodie, long sleeve top and shorts are designed using quick dry fabric, which wicks moisture away from your skin.

Gym dodgers beware, this collection is the answer to all your lame excuses…

Y.Chroma introduces the Swiss Army Knife of the coat world
Get all your seasonal coats in one versatile option
Y.Chroma Quatro Jacket under a coat

Having a good coat wardrobe is one of the most critical pieces of your closet. Staying warm is an extremely important function of the coat, and style is an add-on that often gets lost when men need to guard themselves from the cold. When a man embraces the importance of style, that is, when he decides to dive deep into "functional fashion" and values the warmth and the appearance of a good coat; then he has to run out and buy multiple coats for every occasion. That is where Y.Chroma feels they can make a change. The Y.Chroma Quatro Jacket is the answer to the problem of needing multiple coats. They want you to look good and stay warm in numerous occasions, all in one jacket they are calling the Swiss Army Knife of jackets.
All your jackets in one

One of the things that Max Israel, founder of Y.Chroma, does so well is he offers products that are both functional in that they fit your lifestyle in ways you didn't even know you needed and fashionable in ways that they will stand out and not be seen anywhere else in your circle of influence until they see yours and want to buy their own. We call that trendsetting, by the way. With the Quatro, it looks better than any other quilted coat on the market, but it is also convertible to numerous styles: A hoodless vest, a hooded vest, a light jacket, and a lined puffer. Finally, there is a coat you can wear that is adjustable to changing temperatures and changing social environments.
