Product description of INUTEQ Bodycool Hybrid cooling vest black/white
An ode to the Bodycool hybrid cooling vest
Summer hit
This cooling vest does it all – it absorbs water like a thirsty plant, and dances with cool packs as if it's on an ice rink. The only thing missing is a summer hit to dance to!
Why the Bodycool hybrid cooling vest?
Refreshing
The Bodycool Hybrid is a vest that can provide cooling in various (warm) conditions. For example, as pre-cooling for athletes or simply during work (in a warehouse, in the garden, as a postal worker or window cleaner).
A bit of both
The Bodycool Hybrid cooling vest owes its name to something, of course. Namely, its versatility! This cooling vest can provide cooling through the evaporation method or by using PCM cool packs.
For the evaporation method, you submerge the cooling vest in tap water. The vest absorbs the moisture and in this way provides cooling for 2 to 8 hours. The duration depends on various conditions such as ambient temperature and humidity.
The PCM cool packs can be used by activating them in the fridge, freezer, or in ice water. Once activated, insert them into the designated compartments in the cooling vest (two on the chest, two on the back). The cool packs stay in place with the help of the Velcro fasteners.
What makes the Bodycool hybrid cooling vest so good?
The Bodycool Hybrid is equipped with a sturdy YKK zip. This makes it easy to put on and take off. A zip is more durable than Velcro because a zip usually lasts longer. In addition, this vest has a neater and more streamlined appearance.

The right temperature
The PCM cool packs come in 5 different variants. Each variant has its own colour, but more importantly; its own temperature. For example, there are two variants that are ideal for use during sports in (hot) conditions. These have a temperature of 6.5ºC or 15ºC. The cool packs for work have a temperature of 21ºC, 24ºC or 29ºC.
| Colour | Activity | Temperature | Cooling time |
| Orange | Sport | 6.5ºC | up to 2 hours |
| Blue | Sport | 15ºC | up to 2.5 hours |
| Yellow | Work | 21ºC | up to 3 hours |
| White | Work | 24ºC | up to 3.5 hours |
| Red | Work | 29ºC | up to 4.5 hours |

Cooling improves performance
Studies have shown that a cooling garment is an effective means of improving performance. Wearing a cooling vest extends working time by an average of 16.4%. Employees or athletes can sustain their work (or sport) for longer.
The table below shows how much performance decreases at a certain ambient temperature. For example, racing driver Max Verstappen likes to use the PCM CoolOver under his racing overall. The Dutch women's hockey team also used these cooling vests during their warm-up at the Tokyo Games, so they could perform better during the match. Would you like to read more about this? You can do so here.
| Ambient temperature | Performance reduction |
| 25ºC | 3% |
| 30ºC | 10% |
| 35ºC | 18% |
| 40ºC | 28% |
Activating vest and cool packs
The Hybrid vest can be reactivated once it has dried after wearing. The optional cooling elements can also be reactivated. The maximum number of reactivations is shown below.
