When riding in warm weather, heat stroke and dehydration are a real concern. They could not only end your ride, they could possibly end your life. Why not stay cool with a TechNiche Deluxe Evaporative Cooling Vest with Sleeves. The Deluxe ECV comes with a high collar featuring a hook and loop neck closure for added cooling and sun protection, and when temps near 100 degrees you can zip on the handy sleeve attachments for even more cooling and sun protection. These vests feature zippered pockets and are lightweight, durable, washable. Best of all they provide up to 10 hours of cooling relief per soaking when used with mesh riding gear or with all vents open on leather or textile jackets (results will vary based on outside temperature and humidity levels). With TechNiche’s specially designed quilted nylon outer, polymer embedded fabric inner, water repellant nylon liner, and black cotton-poly elastic trim, the Deluxe Evaporative Cooling Vest with Sleeves is comfortable on even the longest summer day. Ride even cooler with the TechNiche Deluxe Evaporative Cooling Vest.
Each vest ships with exclusive care instructions created just for motorcyclists by the motorcyclists at Sound RIDER! We've used these vests since 2002. We know how to store them best, how to clean them and make them last a long time. To that end we've compiled a simple to follow sheet of information not available anywhere else.
Sizing information: Sizes run true to your jacket size if you have a flat stomach (not a tee-shirt size which tends to run smaller than normal). If you wear a 'large' motorcycle jacket, order a large vest; 'XL' - then order an XL vest and so on.
If you have a bit of a belly, or are endowed with large breasts, then go for the next size up.
Bottom line - We'll exchange it if you get the wrong size so make your best guess - then relax.
Color Selection: The most effective way for the vest to work coolest and stay wet longest is to wear it under your riding jacket with the vents open. That being said color selection is a secondary issue here. Thinking of getting a lime for more visibility? If you’re using the vest effectively no one will see it – right? Silver is the most popular, then it’s black and blue. We stock all sizes in these colors for this model.
The Outdoor Research #1 Waterproof Hydroseal Dry Sack (shown left) is a great way to store and hydrate your cooling vest. It not only won't leak like a plastic bag - it looks better too!
