This cooling vest is like the James Bond among garments: cool, stylish and always ready for action! It absorbs water faster than a sponge in a water fight and keeps your temperature under control, so you stay cool even in the hottest situations. Who needs a secret agent when you have a cooling vest that gets the job done?
The Inuteq Bodycool Basic cooling vest is a smart solution for tackling heat and high temperatures, whether at work, during sport or in your free time. The cooling vest uses advanced technologies to provide you with long-lasting cooling and comfort, even in the warmest conditions.
The Bodycool Basic cooling vest cools through the Inuteq H2O evaporation technique. By simply submerging the vest in tap water and carefully squeezing out the excess water (without wringing), the evaporation technique is activated. This provides pleasant cooling of up to 15°C below the ambient temperature, depending on airflow, temperature and humidity.
The vest works best at low to moderate humidity. The airflow determines the cooling effect. Depending on the conditions, the vest offers 2 to 8 hours of cooling. Has the vest run out? Submerge it again and you can go for another round.
Thanks to the handy YKK zip fastening, the vest is quick to put on and stays firmly in place, without the hassle of Velcro. The "open" sides (see the product photos at the top) offer extra cooling, while the stretchy middle section with air holes provides ventilation and freedom of movement. This makes the vest ideal for warm conditions and intensive activities.
The cooling vest is available in various sizes (XS to 4XL) and colours (black, blue, silver-grey and yellow), so you can choose the perfect vest to match your needs and style. Before ordering, take a moment to check the size chart to see which model fits you best.
The Bodycool Basic cooling vest has antibacterial properties and is machine washable. You can easily wash the vest at 40°C with a mild detergent. Then hang it up to dry for long-lasting use. Hand washing extends the lifespan of the vest.
Looking for even more cooling? A cooling bandana, a cooling towel, or a neck cooler can also offer an excellent solution in extreme heat.
The Bodycool Basic cooling vest cools with ordinary water. It contains no chemical coolants, gels or liquids that could leak out. According to Inuteq's safety data sheet, the three material layers (polyester outer fabric, superabsorbent fibres and polyester lining) contain no hazardous components and are non-toxic.
Under normal use and direct skin contact, there are no known risks for the Bodycool Basic cooling vest. The material is odourless. All Inuteq products comply with the European REACH regulation (1907/2006/EC).
Are you wearing the product over light or light-coloured clothing? Then wash it once before you use it for the first time. New textiles can release a little excess dye when first wetted. That is normal with coloured fabrics. Washing it beforehand rinses out that loose dye, so your clothing stays clean.
Evaporative cooling needs wind or movement. Sitting still indoors, you will hardly notice it.
Little airflow in your situation? A cooling vest with PCM elements also cools without wind or movement. View the PCM cooling vests
