Credit Default Swap: Felt Sweater
This sweater is constructed in off-white 16oz 100% wool felt. It has a smooth, dense surface. It can also be constructed in a micro-suede or other colors, on request. The message, written in braille, is cut into the fabric, creating a tactile message that can only be read through touch. It reads: “Credit Default Swap” in 3 lines.
The Story
Credit Default Swaps were at the foundation of the economic crisis in 2008, although the media spoke mainly of sub-prime lending as the primary cause. CDS’s were the “secret” that no one mentioned until much later, and their impact is still unfolding. We thought they were the perfect secret message for Blinked tactile clothing.
Please contact us to purchase or for more information.
Sizes: Unisex/Men’s, S, M, L, XL
$195. USD
