The Cool Vest is easy to use! Just soak it in water and you're ready to go! No awkward "blue ice" packs to mess with! Best of all, the Cool Vest cools for several hours on just one soaking. For an extra blast of cooling you may refrigerate or freeze the Cool Vest after it has been soaked, or soak it in cold water. It is constructed of high-absorption, non-toxic materials, and works through evaporation.


The Cool Vest is available in a
 variety of colors, including:

  • Why use a Cool Vest?

    Research by the U.S. Navy has shown that using a cool vest minimizes heat strain during exercise in hot air, hastens recovery from heat strain, and attenuates heat strain during subsequent exercise. In other research, workers exhibited a 22% increase in productivity. Participants experienced a reduced recovery time when using the vest during and after completing a task. Recovery time was reduced even when the vest was donned after completion of an activity. Build-up of core body temperature was slower while the test subjects were wearing the cool vest.

    Many athletes compete in hot climates with little time to acclimatize. Research on this population documents that cooling vests provide significant thermoregulatory advantage to athletes exercising in hot weather. Performance during some sports can be enhanced if body heat is minimized prior to the activity or during times on the bench.
