Nagra SN by Yukio Miyamoto

£ 49.00

Commissioned by the CIA in the early '60s, nothing superfluous nothing missing with regards to covert recording.  It had a single quartz modulated motor to manage the problems of angular momentum for reel to reel machines being moved, perhaps erratically, while they were being used.  The whole machine was around the size of a smartphone, albeit slightly deeper to accommodate the diameter of the batteries.  The tape was around 3mm in width with an embedded reference tone that allowed it to be synchronised with a 24fps camera.  Generally if you were recorded with one of these machines you were likely to be in deep trouble.  Now all this functionality can be placed on something that has the dimensions of a credit card and looks like one.  Chapeau Nagra Audio.

Our t-shirts are unique for being wholly made with CoolMax freshFX. CoolMax is a patented fibre designed to wick perspiration and accelerate moisture evaporation, keeping wearers cooler and drier. This wicking feature of the fabric is made possible by micro channels engineered into the profile of and surface of the fibre. These channels are cleverly dimensioned to exploit the surface tension and capillary action of water. Being physical properties of the fibre, these channels endure and do not significantly diminish with wear or washing.

Antimicrobial (freshFX) treatment stops the propagation of odour producing bacteria. This is achieved by embedding silver salt crystals into the structure of the fibre. FreshFX treatment like the wicking is permanent and does not leach out with everyday use. These characteristics ensure the shirts remain cool, dry and odour free regardless of what you might do in them. Performance of the fabric is guaranteed through a certified and monitored manufacturing process.
