This might sound gimmicky, but fashion designers Gabriel Platt and Phoebe Heess have produced the first wearable material that’s allegedly “blacker than black.” The name of the color? Viperblack.

The German duo was inspired to create their ultra-dark and mysterious clothing line by who else but Wednesday Addams. In fact, in a Reddit Ask Me Anything session, Platt said it was this particular meme that sparked the idea to design “blacker than black” clothing:

They took their idea to researchers in Switzerland, who in turn, looked towards nature to develop the color. They modeled it after the West African Gaboon viper, a snake that’s able to camouflage itself thanks to having uniquely dark spots. These spots, called “velvet black,” make the snake nearly invisible on forest floors, according to a study in Nature.

In the AMA, Platt said the fabric reflected 50 percent less light than other “black” fabrics. Platt mentions that it’s impossible to really tell how dark it is on a computer screen—but to give you an idea, here is how it looks in comparison to traditional black fabric. Sure, it’s noticeably darker, but it doesn’t look that impressive.

Don’t be mistaken—this isn’t close to the darkest material ever created. The award for that creation goes to NASA. They created a material so black that is absorbs 99 percent of light. The material is made out of carbon nanotubes, but Pratt says the material isn’t “fit to wear on your skin.” Pratt’s clothing is made from cotton.

A British company also made an intensely black material out of carbon nanotubes—apparently used for military purposes, telescopes, and cameras. The material, called vantablack, absorbs “all but 0.035 per cent of visual light.”

The Independent describes the material like this: “It is so dark that the human eye cannot understand what it is seeing. Shapes and contours are lost, leaving nothing but an apparent abyss.”

And University of Leeds professor of color Stephen Westland made this comparison in The Independent:

“Many people think black is the absence of light. I totally disagree with that. Unless you are looking at a black hole, nobody has actually seen something which has no light. These new materials, they are pretty much as black as we can get, almost as close to a black hole as we could imagine.”

Pratt said that he’s working on bulletproof blacker than black clothing, but for now, he’s selling T-shirts for $78 dollars on a his Kickstarter page. As far as the shirts being “blacker than black,” it’s hard to say without seeing them in person.
