Hi how are you? HOT ! HOT !・・everyone feel this 2020 summer’s dreadful heat.
No one will dispute the fact of this heat hell. And Japan has been getting hotter and hotter over the last few years.
Companies that produce fan-fitted garments are increasingly looking to new markets to boost sales.
I hope you find it useful if the content of this article is in a similar situation in your country.
Air conditioned clothes
With Japan sweltering through some of its hottest temperatures ever recorded this summer, more and more people are reaching for extra layers of clothing in a bid to keep cool.
If that sounds like a contradiction in terms, the growing popularity of jackets fitted with battery-powered fans that circulate air over the wearer’s body suggests otherwise.
Why is it cool?
The breeze running through the clothes creates a refreshing feeling. When a person’s body temperature rises, the brain senses it and produces the necessary sweat.
The mechanism called “physiological cooler”, which lowers the body temperature by the heat of vaporization when sweat evaporates, has a “mechanism for sweat evaporation”, so it can exert a sufficient effect.

First developed by Tokyo-based company Kuchofuku Co. Ltd., fan-fitted clothing has become a big hit with construction workers and other outdoor laborers since it launched in 2004.
With the mercury soaring to record levels in Japan in recent years, however, manufacturers are now taking the technology beyond the construction site and into new markets, including sportswear, high-street fashion and even baby products.

“Recently, summer has become so hot it’s unbearable,” says Daiyu Aoki, an assistant manager at baby products company Dadway Inc., which this year released a baby harness cover and a pushchair seat that both feature Kuchofuku fan technology.
“When a mother is out carrying her baby, it gets really hot for both of them,” he says. “Even 10 years ago, it wasn’t as hot as it is now.
Nowadays, you see a lot of people wearing fan-fitted clothes, and we thought we might be able to put that to practical use for mothers and babies.”

Fan-fitted jackets usually feature two fans, one placed on each side of the lower back, which pump air around the upper body. The fans are connected to a lithium-ion battery, which slips into an inside pocket.
And it can generally be used for around seven or eight hours before it needs to be recharged, depending on the manufacturer.
