The Biological Centre for Study and Preservation of the ITS t-shirt&bag specie gained another important success. The fifth generation of the ITS t-shirt&bag came to birth, thanks to the magic hands of Dr. David Aliperti and the special support of the Scientific Research Centre of Diesel in Molvena, Italy. The brilliant team of scientists succeeded in synthetizing a new variant of the rare and beloved pet creatures. Aliperti, a Brazilian researcher well known for his talent and eclecticism (and often mistaken on the dance floor for a very talented Prince impersonator) have always been fascinated, if not obsessed, by the number 5. He spent sleepless nights reading old books written with strange symbols, digging deep into human history to find that link, the most ancient and forgotten meaning that was hidden behind that symbol:5. This chance of joining his scientific experience with his personal research was interpreted by him as a sign. A difficult and compelling research: the data processing involved was so heavy that some computer broke and melted during the calculations. But the team didn’t give up, and finally, after a period of retirement, they came up with the result.
The ITS t-shirt&bag, generation FIVE, has been conceived by David Aliperti and produced by Diesel. The bag has an additional value: as an evolution of the specie this is the first ITS bag to feature a zip! To avoid hostile predators’ robberies and to capture insects, the beautiful YKK zip can be easily closed and opened without the risk of getting stuck: the preservation of the specie is assured.
