Vollebak Jacket Blue Morpho Size S **RARE**

Description: I have a very rare Vollebak Blue Morpho Jacket Size Small. It has been worn a couple of times, but is in very good condition. There are some small areas of wear on blue material which I have tried to capture in the pictures. The resin and glass that are used in the coating of this jacket make it hard to photograph and depending on how the lights hits it the view changes. It’s really something you have to see in person to appreciate fully. Vollebak no longer sells this jacket but here is a description from their website from when it was up for sale. Blue Morpho Jacket. This light-reflecting hardshell uses 2 billion glass spheres to mimic the Blue Morpho butterfly. The Blue Morpho Jacket is a fully waterproof outer shell that recreates one of nature’s most brilliant solutions to high visibility – the iridescent wings of the Blue Morpho butterfly. The microscopic scales that cover the butterfly’s wings reflect light to create an iridescent shimmering blue that’s constantly shifting colour and can be seen by pilots flying over the rainforest from a kilometre away. We’ve used highly reflective blue glass spheres on the surface of our jacket to mimic the microstructures on the surface of its wing, making it ultra-visible from long range. Each jacket is engineered with lasers, resin and over 2 billion of these microscopic glass spheres to create a crazily reflective ski and snowboard jacket that can shift from matt blue to a bionic blue in a nanosecond.

If you like your jackets to have a closer fit, we recommend buying a size down. The jacket will look different from every angle Just like the wings of the Blue Morpho butterfly, the Blue Morpho Jacket can appear to be many different shades of blue all at once. And because of the way the microscopic glass spheres on the surface of the jacket scatter light, two people looking at the jacket from two different angles will see entirely different effects. Even if you’re holding a camera up to the jacket with the flash on, what you see through the lens and what you see in real life will be two different images.
