[Monosuit](https://www.notjustalabel.com/monosuit) is a NYC based brand known for its futuristic concepts and avant garde transformation options. “The new Monosuit collection continues to explore flight and flying. On the one hand, we refer to the direct meaning of the word “flying”, for example, skydiving, piloting, free fall. On the other hand, we investigate the psychological meaning of flight, like the feeling of flying that is mentioned in sacred texts of several religions. That's the reason why we chose to allude to the monk aesthetic. In other words, we are trying to visually marry monks and skydivers.” commented the founder of Monosuit.
