ZegnaSport Solar Jacket loves the sun

zenga sportSolar power has been commended for its green qualities, and has since made enough strides to be used in clothes. Italian designer Zegna has come up with the ZegnaSport Solar Jacket to keep your electronic devices such as an iPod and cellphone juiced up thanks to the integrated solar cells fitted into the neoprene collar with electricity generated through conducting textile cables to a diminutive li-ion storage battery.

The ZegnaSport Solar Jacket is tipped to be released as part of Zegna’s 2008 summer collection.
