Fancy wearing your favourite Nando’s flavours? No problem. You can do that with the Peri-Peri chain’s limited edition clothing collection that just dropped on the company's website. But Nando’s wouldn’t be who they are if they didn’t sprinkle some spice on it. The garments will ‘heat up’ on you and change colour in line with your body temperature.

‘Hottest merch drop yet’
The new line will include long and short-sleeved t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, socks and bucket hats, and is described by the brand as its ‘hottest merch drop yet’. Literally.
The creators of Nando’s very own five-piece capsule collection used thermochromic tech to design pieces that will change colour as you touch and interact with them. If you ‘heat up’, they’ll give you away by shifting colour.
The clothing is available in five different ‘heat level’ colourways – Plainish, Lemon & Herb, Medium, Hot, and Extra Hot.

‘1990s nostalgia of hypercolour fashion’
The clothing line taps into Nando's iconic ‘PERi-ometer heat chart’ in a bid to revive ‘1990s nostalgia of hyper-colour fashion.’
It also inspires a competitive spirit, with its designers hoping the colour-changing mechanism will challenge fans to experiment with different spice levels, Independent writes.
A statement announcing the new drop said:
Nando’s is nothing without heat. Whether enjoying Extra Hot PERi-PERi chicken or dancing in a festival crowd, each piece in the collection will reveal a distinct new colourway as the temperature changes.
