Evaporative Cooling Vest

Beat the heat during the summer months with this extremely effective evaporative cooling vest. Simply soak the vest in water for 1-2 minutes, wring excess water, and start enjoying the benefits of evaporative cooling.

VTO's Take:
We field-tested this vest at several horse shows recently and found it to be very effective in beating the heat. We felt less heat stress, more energetic, and more alert because the vest was providing the cooling effect, not our body's own perspiration. They are very comfortable and do not impede your range of movement in the least. We found they were most comfortable if you vigorously wring excess water from the vest; otherwise they will dampen your shirt. Apart from that, we'd give this product an A+ for effectiveness and comfort. And in case you're wondering, YES, this is essentially the same fabric providing the same benefits in other products you may have seen for $80-$100. No, you won't get all the fancy color choices with our vest, but in our minds this is a practical piece of riding and barn gear - not a fashion statement.
