Is it worth it?
Was hoping that someone would buy one of these then give a review. $169.00 is a lot of money for this product. I don't think I could look somebody in the eye and say it was worth it. What price do you put on comfort? That's the bottom line.This vest is the best I've worn for easy cooling comfort. Also very well made. You know the drill with the other vests. You soak them and in effect ride around with a little wet blanket on you and for a short while they will cool you off and leave your shirt sopping wet. This mesh vest comes with Four cooler packs that are filled with a clear non toxic substance that turns white when it is fully chilled.These packs are pretty cold at first but are designed to keep your body core at Fifty nine and one half degrees. Your shirt will still get wet from the packs but not like the other vests. We rode in ninety five degree heat and this vest kept me cool for close to two hours ( Glacier Tek claims two and a Half, so pretty close). The cooler packs recharge in ice water in about Twenty minutes. You can also place them in a freezer or refrigerator but they will take longer to chill. I combined this vest with a mesh jacket and I've never been more comfortable in the heat.This products price is the only negative thing I can say. Hands down the best vest I've ever worn. I would not hesitate to buy this product again. |
