Impermeabile in nylon “Dolomiti”

Reason for the award:

The San Giorgio raincoat attracted the particular attention of the Jury for the combination of demands of use with the simplicity of the mass-production process, determined by the location and reduction of the seams, as well as for the attention and executive perfection. Without conceptually modifying the essential elements of use, the San Giorgio raincoat shows how a revision of the topological characteristics of a surface such as a fabric and depending on the manufacture of a garment can lead to the simplification of the production process and a greater functional property with regard to an object’s purpose
