CLIENT: Coolibar® - Sun Protection You Wear®
I designed and developed a branding system for apparel and accessory products alongside zippered fabric travel pouches for the Coolibar® Ultimate Coverage accessories collection of UPF 50+ rated gloves, masks, and more. The accessories are intended to help the wearer achieve full-body protection from damaging UV rays, so I designed a travel pouch to make portability more convenient. The hang tags provide clarity and detail on each product’s fabric, features and differentiators at the point of sale.
Each item in the collection received its own unique hang tag with a simplified illustration of the garment on the front. Inside each tag, a technical illustration and series of icons provides clarity to each product’s features. The pouch makes portability a breeze, so it’s easier for folks to stay protected from UV on the go.
All of the Ultimate Coverage collection items are rich in features. Coolibar® needed a way to quickly and easily relay this information. Previously, this was just a bulleted list on the back of the packaging. Now, technical illustrations provide meaningful feature-benefits instead, and they are also able to be used on online product pages. Icons provide further detail about the specific qualities of an item’s fabric.
Much clearer than a bulleted list, these technical illustrations show each product, point directly to feature locations, and tell consumers the benefit of each feature, providing ample detail in little real estate.
All Ultimate Coverage products are made from proprietary Coolibar® sun-protective fabrics. Beyond the illustrations' focus on particular garment features, these icons help consumers understand the qualities of a particular fabric and what it can do for them.
