The Classic Cool Vest helps keep you cool, comfortable and focused so you can get it done — whatever “it” may be. The mesh material makes it perfect for outdoor wear, as the vest can be hosed off when it gets dirty.  The Glacier Tek Classic vest is designed to keep you cool during and after strenuous physical activity. The vest features side elastic straps and over-the-shoulder adjustability for a secure fit on a wide range of body sizes. Each vest includes a set of eight cooling packs that maintain a cool -- but not cold -- temperature of 59° F for up to 2.5 hours in 100° F heat. The packs are powered by PureTemp, a nontoxic phase change material known for its consistent, repeatable performance over thousands of melting-solidification cycles.


Prepare To Be Cool:

GlacierTek vests maintains a dry, comfortable 59°F for up to 2.5 hours in 100°F heat.


How it Works:

The cooling vest has four exterior pockets 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.


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.


Multiple Uses:

Ideal for construction workers, landscapers, and others. Useful for anyone working in heat related occupations and people with heat sensitive medical condition. Founded in 1997, Glacier Tek has been supplying cooling relief to satisfied customers for over 25 years.


Adjustable Sizing:

Designed for comfort and functionality, the cool vest provides a full range of motion and features adjustable side straps, adjustable shoulder straps.. One size fits most, however we recommend purchasing an extender set for chest sizes greater than 46 inches which can be found here: CLASSIC VEST EXTENDER SET


Extended Cooling:

To extend cooling relief beyond 2 hours consider purchasing a spare pack set available here: ADULT PACK SET or a Glacier Tek Booster set available here: BOOSTER SET. The vest set fully loaded with 8 packs weighs less than 5 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.

    One mesh bag for transporting cooling pack set

The classic vest for my son is wonderful. My son has spasticity and gets hot quick outside and inside in stores so this vest really helps him stay cool. Love it.

Awesome!

I am a middle-aged menopausal woman and I am hot all the time, even through the winter! I live in Canada and even though it’s cold up here in the winter, I still sweat like crazy! This cooling vest is a godsend! Thank you so much Glazier Tek for your amazing invention!

Perfect for farming and racing

I started by buying two vests. Both were to be used under our race suits and our hopes weren't very high. By the end of the first night of racing we were sold. We had strangers coming up to us asking where we got them and all the questions that go with it. Before the races the following weekend I went ahead and ordered step more vests for my teammates. Under a fire suit the packs last for 2-3 hours easy. Can throw them in the cooler for 15-20 minutes and go again.

Classic Cool Vest

Kept my core temp in check when the temperature climbed above 100 degrees in the Mojave desert. Took about 4 hours for the ice packs to melt with continuous use. Placed in a cooler full of ice and could reuse in a couple hours.
