The latest Neon Genesis Evangelion collaboration item will let fans stay cool this summer and fall with the limited ATFIELD Air Conditioning Vest. That’s right, Evangelion fans will be able to get their hands on an “air conditioning” vest. This item has two built in fans that will circulate cool air throughout the vest, keeping your body temperature down. Of course, this item is exclusive to Japanese retailers. However, if you’re interested in this item and don’t mind using a middle man service, you can find it through the Rakuten online shop. The Neon Genesis Evangelion ATFIELD Vest will cost ¥8,800 or roughly $83 [Thanks, Famitsu!]
In addition to its two fan system, the vest itself is made out of a protective material that makes it waterproof and resistant to cold. This means that fans can wear this item during any weather condition. You can check out an image of the Neon Genesis Evangelion ATFIELD Air Conditioning Vest and unique promotional art for this collaboration below.
