It is the natural choice for automotive, tech and sports brands that must answer ESG targets without giving up a technical aesthetic: the 3D weave works in place of the logo. It is not the right product for anyone seeking a wide palette — four essential shades are the whole offer — nor for those wanting the original Gear's miniottoman carbon-look detail: the two models split the segment, dual-material aesthetics for the Gear, full certification for the Gear-S.

GRS certificato su tutti i componenti e CO2 dichiarata ISO 14067 (0,600 kg, -15%): il gadget sostenibile difendibile in un report, non un claim generico. La trama 3D lo distingue al tatto dai cappellini promozionali standard prima ancora del logo.
