HONG KONG, Oct. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KnitWarm proudly presents its cutting-edge smart textiles at Fashion World Tokyo 2024, under Hong Kong Pavilion (booth A21-47 & A22-47).
KnitWarm integrates advanced heat-conductive technology with sustainable materials like silver-coated yarn and recycled fibers, offering customizable, targeted warmth directly to the body. By reducing the need for traditional heating methods and disposable heat packs, KnitWarm’s products significantly lower energy consumption and environmental waste, providing a practical solution for personal comfort with sustainability at its core.
Collaboration with Keiko
KnitWarm has recently teamed up with designer Lincoln Szeto, who draws inspiration from the color “Benihi” (Scarlet), symbolizing vitality and warmth. Traditionally used in Japanese silk dyeing, “Benihi” blends natural dyes like safflower and turmeric with scientific methods to achieve its distinct hue. This vibrant color not only carries historical significance but also has physiological effects, stimulating the autonomic nervous system to enhance organ function.
The collection merges Szeto’s unique design aesthetic with KnitWarm’s technology, offering comfort and warmth in a style that reflects the designer’s relaxed yet sophisticated vision. His approach blends creativity, functionality, and technology, delivering garments that exude understated elegance while boosting the wearer’s confidence.
