ASTEROID MINER FILM
When Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin climbed back onto the Eagle to return to Earth after the moon landing, sleep was out of the question. The noise of pumps filled their tiny cabin, bright warning lights couldn’t be dimmed, and even the window shades were glowing as intense sunlight shot through them. 50 years on the problem remains, and we decided to take it on.
AUTOPSY 7019 FILM
One day in the far future, archaeologists will dig up an Indestructible Puffer, and have to figure out who built it and why.
In every industry there’s someone building the future, whether it’s technology, architecture, food, cars or space rockets. In clothing it’s us. Founded by twin brothers, designers and athletes Nick and Steve Tidball, we use science and technology to create clothing that no-one else can or will – clothes from the future.
