Seriously cold


To make a popsicle that's 80% water 20% fruit, mix together, put it in the freezer at -12c…what will happen? It’ll freeze. Great! Take an indie popsicle that's 80% water, 20% heat-sucking skinny jeans, canvas shoes, a cotton jacket and put in a -12c Berlin winter…what will happen? It’ll freeze. And we’re talking literally here. A chemistry teacher once told me that every atom in the universe is trying to find its lowest state of energy, which is why things cool and slow down. And this means everyone and everything in the universe with no exceptions. Thermals are needed not nerdy. Take the cold very seriously or you’ll end up the wrong side of cool.
