Ratings and Reviews for Be SEEN & Stay COOL HyperKewl Soakable 3M Reflective Safety Cool Vest

Ditto to what Keith said about this vest. To add: The first time I soaked the vest I noticed no slime!! The large pocket in the front comes in handy too. Something else I noticed right away; it does not have to fit tight to cool. With the vent on the windshield open and traveling at highway speeds I was very comfortable with temps in high 90's.

I found this vest while looking for a good high visibility vest to ride with. This vest had the right color and a very large amount of 3M reflective tape front and back. Then I realized it was a cooling vest, and bought it. I have used the vest most every time I ride, it is very light. I have used it wet, three times and found it to work surprisingly well. You have to soak the vest for 1-2 min. I got hot one day (riding with it dry) and decided to get it wet to cool down. I soaked it in a MacDonald’s hand sink (really funny looks from people wondering what I was drowning in the sink!). You would think that it might not work on a Goldwing with the full faring and windshield, but it does. My back gets plenty of backwash of air and you can really feel it cool you for 3-4 hours. The only weird thing about it is that the buttons (snaps) are reversed. The left side snaps into the right…no big deal just odd. So far, it seems that it will last a long time. I make sure that I hang it up after use, to be sure it’s completely dry before storing it in the saddle bag again.
