Among these, charging a phone remains the most popular amongst users, more and more nomadic and connected. That’s the functionnality of the Lacoste Infinity-T line, a fanny pack and a backpack that the French ready-to-wear brand has equipped with a solar battery, to juice up one's phone, by simple contact.
