Houdini aims to ensure every product they design is created to make a difference for the end user and the world, They see the innovation, design, and development process of each style as a strategically important long-term investment for the company and future generations. Bringing in a Biomimicry approach to their checklist, they remind themselves “Our designs are minimalistic and stripped of unnecessary details, just like nature itself.”

The collaboration with Rumpl and Houdini pulled two unique brands together to create a product that ties their two origins. focused on simplicity and circularity while keeping nomads warm and protected, the Recovery blanket utilizes an advanced 2-layer hardshell for protection against elements and abrasion while the reversed side retains heat with PCR Polyester insulation and a 30-denier Face.

• Spheric 2-layer hardshell 20,000mm water column
• TPU membrane
• Made with recycled and recyclable materials
• 3D Hollow Fiber Siliconized Insulation
• Rumpl patented Cape-clip
• Houdini hardware (riveted studs and caps)
• Spinner ripstop
• French seam

This project involved a lot of testing since the materials used in the project were new to Rumpl's line giving me exposure to the more in-depth side of testing and sourcing new materials. Fortunately, the lab dips for the spec'd colors were pretty streamlined due to the colors aligning with our factory's color profiles already set up for the codes we asked them to hit.
