This is a great way to keep warm when staying out in the cold for long periods of time. Our main complaint is that the largest size available is not very large. The sizes aren't very true to what is labeled.

It will be great to wear at outside games. The collar is high enough to keep me warm from the waist to my neck. It is soft and comfortable and not too bulky to wear under a jacket. I am glad I have it. Couldn't recommend a better vest and the workmanship is excellent.

Bottom Line:

This vest works just great! I read some comments in which people said the sizing was small. Yes, it does run snug, but that's the way it's designed to fit. The vest must make contact with your body in order for you to feel and retain the warmth. So, if you cheat on your size, order the next larger size. Usually, you will wear it layering under something else. It has a storm flap that runs down the front zipper. It charges fast and I find you will wind up shutting it off, rather than running it constantly; it gets that hot! Great for golfers or anyone who works outdoors in cold weather. The best!!!

This product is an answer to a prayer. I am one of those people who can stay warm as long as my torso is kept warm. As a safety and noise control engineer, I often have to travel from our warm winter home in Naples, FL to some of the coldest places in the nation.

The heated vest will mean that I don't need to pack sweaters and bulky jackets. All I need is the vest under light jacket, along with long sleeves and gloves in order to work outside in North Dakota and Minnesota winter temperatures.

The sale price is what drew me to buy the product, and I'm glad I did. It is warm (without the heat on) even on those cool mornings in Naples - and hangs ready to use anytime.

This is a decent product, but I was surprised that only certain areas of the vest were wired to be heated, not the whole vest. Area that was wired got *very* warm, like hot pad hot, whereas other areas maintained temperature of ordinary vest. Sizing was also large. I got the small, and it feels more like a medium. Rechargeable pack should also maintain longer charge, but it's not truly a poor time either.

I am a daily commuter that requires walking about 6 blocks in the elements to my destination. This vest keeps me warm during the trip, but does not hold the charge-even when off, during the day for the evening commute w/o recharging during the day. The vest sizes are more accommodating for a woman's smaller frame than a males (i.e., if u order a "large," it will not be suitable for a "large" on a male)

I got this because I always get cold. So I thought this jacket would really be neat to keep me warm. It does but the only drawback to this is that for very cold weather you would most likely use the highest setting (there are high, medium and low). But when you that you only get heat for a little over an hour. That wouldn't do if you going be outside for long. I still use it. But I should wish they would give a longer lasting battery or something.

Great Vest, especially good for layering

The vest heats up quickly and is great to take off the chill. When you get too warm or go inside a store, just tap the button throuh the vest and use a lower level of heating. I recently used it to layer with a full sleeved jacket when I went into a twenty degree freezer for a couple of hours and never got cold. Be sure and order the next larger size because it does run smaller than the size indicates.
