Wide Variety of Colors
When it comes to specialized apparel for kids, the biggest obstacle can be finding something they like to wear. Favorite colors can often be the dealbreaker for clothes, so we've got that covered with our largest range of color options on any vest!
Hot weather can be difficult for children to cope with -- especially if they have a pre-existing condition or live in an unforgiving climate. Keeping them cool can be a challenge. Glacier Tek makes a cooling vest that’s just right for children. The Children’s Cool Vest maintains a comfortable 59 F for up to 2.5 hours in 100 F heat. It weighs less than 3 pounds and features adjustable straps to fit a wide range of body types. The vest will fit children who weigh between 30 and 90 pounds.
Each vest includes a set of four cooling packs powered by PureTemp, a nontoxic phase change material. Use all four packs for maximum cooling duration of up to 2.5 hours. Or use two -- one in front, one in back -- to lighten the load. With half the packs in place, your child will still get up to 90 minutes of cooling -- and you can keep the other two packs in a fridge, freezer or cooler, ready for use when the first pair run out of cool.
For teenagers, consider Glacier Tek's Concealable vest.
Prepare To Be Cool:
Glacier Tek vests maintains a dry, comfortable 59°F for up to 2.5 hours in 100°F heat.
How it Works:
The cooling vest has two interior pockets (one in front, one in back) that hold packs snug against the torso. The charged packs will pull heat out of the body’s core which will lower effectively lowering the users body temperature and delivering a sensation of cooling. It is simple science, no gimmicks here. The packs work as heat absorbers, a cooling solution that keeps your clothes dry and works in humidity. Founded in 1997, Glacier Tek has been supplying cooling relief to satisfied customers for over 25 years.
Easy to Recharge:
The cooling packs recharge in about 20 minutes in ice water (or a mountain stream), one hour in the freezer, or two hours in the refrigerator.
Adjustable Sizing:
Designed for comfort and functionality, the cool vest provides a full range of motion and features adjustable side straps and adjustable shoulder straps. One size fit most kids, 30 to 90 pounds, however we recommend purchasing an extender set for larger sized kids. CHILDRENS VEST EXTENDER SET for kids. For children or teenagers larger than 90 pounds, consider purchasing the CONCEALABLE VEST SET
Extended Cooling:
To extend cooling relief beyond 2 hours consider purchasing a spare pack set available here: CHILDRENS PACK SET or a Glacier Tek Booster set available here: BOOSTER SET. The vest set fully loaded with 4 packs weighs less than 3 pounds. For use in less demanding conditions, such as indoor use, you can make the vest lighter by using one cooling pack per pocket instead of two.
