grado zero espace does some cool stuff, like denim made of stinging nettles. My favorite is the aerogel jacket, so well insulated that the prototype was considered
too warm for Antarctica. You can buy that jacket, tailored to your size, for a mere $2500. They created a more practical version, called Absolute Zero, but it's not for sale.
If anyone sees an aerogel jacket (not parka) for sale, let me know.
