The Dark Ice Project is an expedition of unprecedented feats, pushing the limits of human determination, athleticism, and innovation. In the fall of 2020, three British explorers will launch a re-fitted inclosed liferaft, their new home away from home, off the shores of Northern Canada en-route to the icy terrain of The North Pole.
As the explorers gather crucial scientific data on and off the ice and finish with a trek across the entirety of the North Pole, their clothing kit is their main protector and insulator on which they depend their lives throughout the expedition. BYBORRE was brought on board to develop and push the limits of the Merino wool knits used for the base and mid-layers, along with consulting on the design and integration of each of the kit’s layers from base to outer layers.
