Lightweight and Customizable

Take advantage of Glacier Tek's unique, adaptable pack designs! Cut the weight of your vest in half by using one cooling pack per pocket instead of two, or add additional cooling coverage with a Over-the-Shoulder Cooling Kit or Side Cooling Kit

Easy to Clean

GlacierPacks can be hand-washed with warm water and dish soap. If desired, isopropyl alcohol may be used for disinfection. Rinse and towel dry before use.

Sports vests can be washed by hand and line-dried, or by machine on a delicate wash cycle with a tumble dry.

Adustable Fit for Sizes S-3XL

The Sports vest comes in one size, with side and shoulder straps that can be adjusted to fit most adults. Vests will accomodate standard sizes S-XL, and can accomodate up to 3XL with the addition of a Extender Set or Side Cooling Kit (Extended)

The Glacier Tek sports vest is designed to keep you cool during and after strenuous physical activity. The vest features dual 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:

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 four interior 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.

Booster packs can be recharged in the freezer, typically within 1 hour

The Perfect Solution for Extreme Heat

The Perfect Solution for Extreme Heat
Product: Glacier Tek Sports Cooling Vest Bundle Set (with two sets of 8 cooling packs)

As a journeyman locksmith with over 25 years of experience, I spend a lot of time working out of the back of my van and at customer sites in the intense Las Vegas summer heat. I also have some medical concerns that make staying cool an absolute requirement for me to continue doing my job safely.

Previously, I relied on evaporative cooling vests that need to be soaked in water. While they did help a bit, they are nowhere near as comfortable or functional as this Sports Cooling Vest from Glacier Tek.

I purchased the bundle set, which includes two sets of eight cooling packs. I initially bought the vest in the Pewter color, but I found it looked a little too tactical for my day-to-day work. I ended up getting another one in Burgundy, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Performance & Recharging
The vest keeps me consistently cool and allows me to focus on my repairs without the constant worry of overheating. For me, a set of cooling packs lasts a solid three hours. Having the bundle with two sets is incredibly helpful because I can swap them out seamlessly on the job. The used packs recharge quickly and easily in my heavy-duty Engel cooler alongside a dry ice replacement pack.

Pros:

Highly Effective: Far superior to traditional water-soaked evaporative vests.

Continuous Cooling: The bundle includes two sets of packs, perfect for rotating during long shifts.

Easy to Recharge: Packs freeze back up quickly in a heavy-duty cooler on the go.

Comfortable: Allows for full mobility while working.

Cons:

The Pewter color can look a bit overly tactical, but the Burgundy option is a great alternative.

Bottom Line: So far, this vest is the absolute perfect solution for me. Highly recommended for anyone working in demanding, high-heat environments.

Works, but cumbersome and not very comfortable for smaller gals

This product works but is optimistically marketed as one-size fits most/all. I'm well within "normal" size range of women my age at 5'2" and 120lbs and this vest is comically too big on me. The velcro straps have to be brought in so far that they they cover the zipper. The velcro edges are very stiff and sharp, so they cut my skin whenever I brush against them with my arm or at the shoulder/neck area. I'll have to see if I can rig something up to prevent that. I do wish Glacier Tek would consider making a version for the smaller gals. Some of us have trouble with temperature regulation too.

Somewhat satisfied

It somewhat works. The whole unit is very bulky, so even if you are getting some cooling including with the booster packs, it is still heavy to walk with and it strains you and makes you sweat. I work out every day for over 3 hours so I am used to a lot of strain in my muscles, this product however surprised me with its bulkiness and its ability to make me huff and sweat. I used it to walk my dog in 92F heat a few times. I was somewhat happy with it in that process. Lately the weather has got a bit cooler and I will try it again when it gets really hot but i don't expect much of a difference in operation next time.

Heat stress lifesaver

If you work or play outside there is no better way to eliminate heat stress and heat exhaustion. GlacierTek Cool Vests are a literal life saver.

Works beautifully!

Managed to keep me cool in the Las Vegas summer heat for a few hours. You will still sweat, though, and sunblock is still needed. However, those are easily fixed issues and neither are attributable to the best. Highly recommend!
