Introducing “Stealth Wear”: Drone-Proof Hoodies and Scarves


January 17, 2013 | Andy Cush

Artist Adam Harvey–the guy behind this anti-facial-recognition makeup–is back ,with more practical, surveillance-busting work: Stealth Wear, a line of clothing designed to block thermal imaging, a tracking and surveillance technique often used by drones. According to the artist, Stealth Wear “continues to explore the aesthetics of privacy and the potential for fashion to challenge authoritarian surveillance.”

The garments were designed in collaboration with Johanna Bloomfield, formerly of Ralph Lauren and currently of Johannes Faktoum, so not only will they protect you from the eyes in the sky, they’ll probably look pretty smart while doing it, too.
