Cooling Vests
Stay safe when it’s hot—these vests cool down your core to protect you in extreme heat.
Style A vests soak up water that slowly evaporates to keep you cool for up to four hours. Soak them in cold water for a few minutes, and polymer crystals in the fabric will absorb large amounts of water. As you move, airflow creates a cool, damp sensation to lower your body temperature. Lightweight and flexible, these vests are made of nylon, with a mesh bottom to help with ventilation.
Style B vests hold water in a reservoir, which slowly evaporates to cool you down. Though they don't get as cold as other options, they last much longer, keeping you cool all day. Plus, you'll only need to refill the reservoir every three days. The most durable option, they have a rigid polyurethane shell, with a nylon liner for comfort. These vests have elastic hook and loop straps, making them the most adjustable style.
Style C vests have cooling packs that stay at 64° F for up to two hours. They don’t require airflow to cool you down, so you can wear them indoors as well as outdoors. Rechill the cooling packs in a freezer, fridge, or even in front of an air conditioner. To keep cool for longer, keep replacement cooling packs on hand.

High-Visibility Cooling Vests
Keep cool and be seen—these vests protect you from the heat and help you stand out when visibility is low. They meet ANSI/ISEA 107, so they've passed tests for visibility at high speeds and distances. That means you'll be seen by fast-moving vehicles or from across the shop floor.
Style A vests hold water that slowly evaporates to keep you cool for up to four hours. Soak them in cold water for a few minutes, and polymer crystals in the fabric will absorb large amounts of water. As you move, airflow creates a cool, damp sensation to lower your body temperature. A polyester/nylon shell won’t weigh you down, and a mesh bottom helps with ventilation.
Style B vests hold cooling packs that stay at 58° F for up to three hours. You can use these both indoors and outdoors as they don’t require airflow to cool you down. Their polyester exterior helps keep water out while a cotton liner has a thermal layer to keep you cool. They come with an insulated cooler bag to keep packs cold before use. To keep cool for longer, keep replacement cooling packs on hand.

Flame- and Arc-Flash-Protection Cooling Vests
Keep your core cool while staying protected from flames and arc flash. These vests hold cooling packs in the front and back, so they’ll stay a comfortable 64° F for up to four hours. Made with a flame-resistant fabric, these vests meet Category 1 NFPA 70E standards to provide light protection against arc flashes. Reuse the cooling packs as many times as you want by chilling them in a freezer, fridge, or in front of an air conditioner.
They have adjustable hook and loop closures at the shoulders and waist for a comfortable fit. When worn over other clothes, these vests have reflective accents to help you stand out in low-visibility conditions.
Check the PPE category and minimum arc rating provided for your workplace and select all required clothing and personal protective equipment to meet that rating.
When measuring chest size, measure around the fullest part of your chest. Take all measurements over any garments you expect to wear under the protective clothing.
