We have decided upon using poppers on the sleeves to make them detachable and act as the cooling elements in order to have one garment with two functions. We have also decided to add the heating elements in strategic places where the conductive thread will not be affected, and where the wearer will want the most warmth.
We have created the final hoodie from black wool as it is an insulating material and colour which will counteract the electronics within. These we have sewn in with conductive thread, leading to the heat pads strategically placed in the pocket, both arms and lower back.
