Sheltersuit can be easily transformed into a warm, waterproof sleeping bag (Credit: Sheltersuit.com)

Shortly after graduating in 2012, Dutch fashion designer Bas Timmer heard some distressing news. While he had been busy sketching designs for warm weather clothing for his new brand, a friend's father, who was homeless, had died of hypothermia just meters away from his studio. The young innovator set aside his personal ambitions and instead used his design skills to create Sheltersuit — a waterproof, insulated jacket that doubles as a sleeping bag to protect the world's homeless and refugees, living in makeshift camps, against extreme weather.

            It is sad, but I am glad someone stood up to help. I think this is truly inspiring and we, the people, and the world need more people like this.
