“The vest works best under a layer. In 45 - 55 degree weather on medium the effect of the heating was not noticeable. With a light sweatshirt it worked very well. Be advised you will need something to protect your neck from the vest if you hope to keep it zipped up and gain any heat from the neck element. Plus per the directions no heated area should touch bare skin so I’m not sure how the design would even work and be complaint if you did not have a gaiter or scarf underneath. The neck however when fully zipped is pretty tight - or was on me so it was a little bit of an issue. Overall the 4XL ran small when compared to the sizing chart body dimensions. I ordered it bigger than I thought I needed but it ended up pretty snug on the torso and neck. Operation was simple and directions worked as printed.”

“I'm in construction and was looking for a heated jacket/vest that didn't have a bulky battery (Milwaukee), that I can wear during working hours. I normally wear a 2X. So my orginal order was a 3X heated vest. Once I received the 3X, it fit like an XL ( I could have worn, but really tight zipping up). Reached out to customer support, who were super helpful, and recommended the 4X heated vest.
So I returned 3X heated vest and received my 4X heated vest. Once I tried on it fit exactly like the 3X!
Reached out to customer support, who were helpful again, and all they stated was there sizing are from different manufacturers. I was little confused, because I assumed these were made in-house and not from a 3rd party.
Wanted to love, but unfortunately I'm stuck with Milwaukee's bulky battery heated jacket.”

“I purchased two of these vests one for my husband and one for myself after having purchased it in December for my daughter in law. When she raved about it, I knew we could totally use these on the cold baseball field while watching our Grandsons play ball. Well, they did not disappoint! Kept us toasty warm on the frigid field!! Great product, great fit, easy to use!!! Thank you!!!”
“My husband is very happy with the vest. It’s perfect for the North Texas winter mornings on the golf course. He says it feels great and the heat warms his neck, chest and back. The fit is also great. He is 6’4 and wears 2X.”
