Japan launches lightweight summer suits and wearable fan for heat relief

A new line of ZERO Like® design suits has been introduced in Japan, targeting business professionals seeking comfort during the hot summer months. The suits are marketed as ultra‑lightweight, breathable and priced from ¥34,000 (about $240) when purchased as part of a multi‑item order.

Separately, the wearable fan ZERA MAX 2.0 was reviewed, featuring a waist‑mounted unit that channels airflow inside clothing. Weighing roughly 295 g, the device offers three speed settings, up to 15 hours of battery life and an integrated cooling plate that delivers a noticeable chill through the fabric. Reviewers noted its effectiveness on the back and chest compared with traditional handheld fans.

Both products are presented as personal cooling solutions amid warnings about heat‑related illness during Japan’s peak summer heat.
