Frozen Smoke?

Known as Aerogel, the versatile material may one day revolutionize every product we are familiar with. The material protects against bomb blasts, can mop up oil spills, and can be used in spacesuits to one day take humankind to Mars. Nicknamed "frozen smoke" due to it being 99% gas and its extremely low density. Some attempts have been made to use the material commercially. Hugo Boss created a line of winter jackets made of the material but discontinued the line after complaints that the jackets were too warm. Technology has issued the challenge, designers now need to creatively incorporate the material into the lives of consumers
