Remus E-blocker Suit Inspector Gadget Tailoring  

Labels: 0 comments


If you're worried that your mobile may contaminate your body with radiation, you are in luck. Remus has a solution in its new range of what has been dubbed ‘Inspector Gadget tailoring’, namely its e-blocker wool-mix travel suit.

Entitled the Novonics E-blocker line, this super suit is lined with a nano-engineered yarn called novonic which, Remus claims, forms an electro-magnetic barrier against mobile phone and Bluetooth rays and shields the body from radiation.

Like most wool-mix travel suits, the E-blocker range is crease and stain resistant, but is termed by Remus Uomo as the last word in functional fashion.

Remus Uomo spokesperson, Sam Livingstone, said it can appeal to two distinct groups of people – health-conscious types who fear the effects of mobile phone radiation on their body and security conscious individuals who either don’t wish to be contactable or fear they might be Blue-jacked via Bluetooth-wielding data thieves.

The E-blocker suit – which is washable, breathable and is available in black, navy, charcoal, silver grey and beige – uses a form of nanotechnology that blocks up to 99.9pc of direct radiation without affecting the phone’s performance.

The nanotechnology performance of the material, Livingstone said, has been confirmed by the University of the Armed Forces in Munich’s Department of High Frequency, Microwave and Radar Technology, plus the Klaus Steilmann Institute.

The suit is now being introduced to department stores and gents outfitters by Remus Uomo, priced in the €300-€400 bracket.

Just remember if it blocks mobile phone and Bluetooth rays, this means that when the phone’s in the pocket it won’t ring!
