Ice Mine Suit

Ice mine suit is designed to support researchers on an expedition to the coldest and rockyest underground mine on the planet, a place never explored by man. The suit is therefore a mix of functionality adapted to an icy and innovative aesthetic.

It is composed by a layer of conductive fabric that heats the body at the command of the wearer and an upper nylon layer covered with membranes and coatings that make it particularly resistant to all the challenges posed by sharp rock and penetrating humidity.

The design process was based on the analysis of the needs of a common speleologist and then figuring out how these could be transformed in much more difficult conditions and therefore how a classic cave suit had to be rethought based on these.

The 3D design software "Clo3d" was used for the actual construction and rendering of the suit.
