EMI Blocking Clothes From The Future

July 17, 2026 The Silo Leave a comment

Over the last 18 months our friends at Vollebak have been building the Shielding range, a wearable defence system against electromagnetic radiation. Some of it is literally silver and shiny. In other cases, they have integrated the shielding technology more discreetly, in a super comfortable t shirt and, shipping in September, one of the best-looking leather jacket ever made.

Gamma rays turned Bruce Banner into The Hulk. Which turned out to be mostly a good thing. But in reality radiation and human beings don’t go well together.And as we enter an era of cybersecurity breaches, geopolitical instability, the first manned missions to Mars and increased cosmic radiation exposure, it’s going to present more of a threat.Luckily, there are ways to stop electromagnetic radiation in its tracks.

Long before the Curiosity Rover was sent to Mars to search for signs of life, it had to be tested on Earth. So NASA built an electromagnetic shielding tent to completely block out external radiation during testing – anything from a text message to a chat with the James Webb telescope.

EXPLORE THE Vollebak SHIELDING RANGE

Vollebak took that technology and put it into clothing.

The Shielding Jacket and Shielding Pants are built from a lightweight ripstop embedded with pure silver that blocks radio waves and microwaves across the frequencies used by WiFi, Bluetooth, Ku-band satellites and radar.

This means the jacket and pants deflect infrared, so you can’t be seen on a thermal camera. And each one has a hidden pocket that works like a Faraday cage, sealing your phone off from the outside world whether it’s switched on or off. So you can’t be hacked, tracked or even called.

The Shielding Bomber, based on the original MA-1 flight jacket, wraps this space-age protection in a jet-age shape.

Arriving in September, the Leather Shielding Jacket is a re-engineered version of the A-2, the most famous leather jacket ever made.

It’s cut from black nappa sheep leather, tanned with plant-based tannins so it breathes and ages gracefully, and is lined with the same silver shielding technology as the Shielding Jacket, Pants and Bomber.

The Shielding T Shirt works slightly differently.

It’s knitted from silver-plated fibres spun from wood pulp, forming a conductive network.

Lab tests show shielding from 30MHz to 10GHz, with the strongest effect across common mobile, WiFi and Bluetooth bands.

It won’t hide you from a satellite, but it’s supersoft, endlessly wearable and the logical thing to put on under everything else.

Fight Matrix Life With This Cyberpunk Bomber Jacket

March 3, 2026 The Silo Leave a comment

Back in the 1980s the cyberpunk genre envisioned a world of societal breakdown where technologically modified humans are controlled by mega-corporations watching their every move… or 2026 as it’s otherwise known.
So as science fiction becomes modern day reality, our friends at Vollebak are giving you a chance to stick it to the mega-corporations, and dress a bit like Ryan Gosling in Drive at the same time.

Ever since brothers Nick and Steve Tidball started Vollebak they’ve been working on advanced material science to solve for things like disease resistance, climate change, space travel and resource scarcity. And next up is the electromagnetic spectrum.

Mars And The Hulk Have Something To Do With This Design

While Gamma rays might have turned Bruce Banner into The Hulk, in reality radiation and human beings don’t go well together. And as we enter an era of cybersecurity breaches, geopolitical instability, the first manned missions to Mars (after Elon settles down on the Moon first) , and cosmic radiation exposure, it’s going to present an increased threat.

So this is cool- this Electromagnetic Shielding Bomber is built with the same electromagnetic shielding technology used for the Mars Rover.
Long before the Curiosity Rover was sent to Mars to search for signs of life, it had to be tested here on Earth. So NASA created an electromagnetic shielding tent that was designed to completely block out external electromagnetic radiation during testing… like someone sending a text, turning the microwave on, or chatting with the James Webb telescope.

Shields The Waves

We’ve now taken that technology and converted it into our first Electromagnetic Shielding Bomber. It’s embedded with pure silver that blocks radio waves and microwaves in the 0.2GHz to 14GHz frequency range – which includes WiFi, Bluetooth, Ku-band satellites and radar systems.
It also comes with a phone shielding pocket that works like a Faraday cage – blocking access to your devices, regardless of whether they’re switched on or off. Conceptually it’s like making a pocket that’s entirely watertight… just for electromagnetic energy instead. So you shouldn’t be tracked, hacked, or even called.
While the outside of the jacket offers space-age protection, its shape, cut and aesthetics come from the jet-age, and are based on the original MA-1 flight jacket.

Wear USB Condoms- Hackers Are Poised To Attack Tourists This Travel Season

June 29, 2022 The Silo Leave a comment

As the 2022 school year comes to an end, the surge of summer travel plans begins. With an estimated 60% of Canadians and Americans planning at least one trip over the next 3 months, hackers have roughly 200,000,000 projected tourists to prey on.

Lookout’s Cyber Security Expert, Hank Schless, shares how these cyber-attacks usually capitalize on travelers who are often overwhelmed or distracted when in unfamiliar environments, like airports and cafes.

>> Public Wifi Connections

“Although many airports offer free Wi-Fi connectivity, you should make sure that you join the official airport network and not a similar network that is configured to trick travelers into giving up their usernames and passwords”

Attackers have been known to set up fake networks – with obvious but convincing names like ‘Starbucks_Guest_WiFi’.
Once you connect, they’ll gain access to sensitive information, including your login credentials, emails, and messages.
In order to protect yourself from wifi threats, alter your device’s settings so that it does not automatically connect to nearby networks, which the Lookout app does automatically.

>> Social Awareness & Juice Jacking

While on the go, travelers rely on power outlets and USB cords to keep their mobile device’s battery charged. Attackers can exploit USB chargers by loading malware onto them that infects your device the second you plug it in – Always be aware of your surroundings.

The “USB condom” works by physically disconnecting the data pins of a USB device and only allowing the power pins to make contact.

If someone approaches you and offers their USB charging cord, it is best to decline.

Always travel with your personal USB cords, and plug your charger directly into an electrical socket (vs USB port) if possible.
The easiest place for a scammer to steal or hack your phone is in crowded areas – so never leave your phone or device unattended and only let people you know “borrow” your devices.

>> SMS and Email Travel Updates

“It’s important to be on guard for travel-related email, text, and social media scams as well. Attackers may try to steal a traveler’s credentials through phishing campaigns that pretend to be an airline, credit card company, or TSA”

The Lookout App by Google is now available in Canada.

Here’s how it works: A scammer will send a message telling the recipient that their TSA PreCheck needs to be renewed, but the link in the renewal email leads to a fake site where hackers can accept payment and steal a victim’s personal information.

Although the TSA sends renewal reminder texts and emails, travelers should always go directly to the TSA website for information on their existing accounts.
For added protection, consumers can also download security – Security protection, like the Lookout app, will automatically monitor and identify scam URLs in email, text messages, and on the web and block you from threats that can do harm.
