What Makes Our Women's Cooling Vests the Best Available?
How An American Small Business Goes Above And Beyond The Competition

Innovative Cooling Technology

GlacierTek vests use Renewable Phase Change Material (RPCM) which maintains a comfortable 59°F (15°C) temperature for up to 2.5 hours in hot conditions.
This technology is designed to mimic the body's natural cooling process, providing a consistent and effective cooling effect without overcooling.

Variety of Options

The collection offers a wide range of vests tailored to different needs and preferences:
sporty designs for active use, high-visibility vests for safety, classic designs in various colors for everyday comfort, and even a concealable vest for discreet cooling under regular clothing.

Adjustability for Perfect Fit  

Many of the vests feature adjustable components, such as side straps, to ensure a snug and comfortable fit.
This adjustability enhances the cooling efficiency and makes the vests suitable for various body shapes and sizes.

Quality Materials 

The vests are made from high-quality, durable materials designed to withstand rigorous use and provide long-lasting comfort and cooling.
The attention to detail in the construction and material selection further underscores their commitment to quality.

Ease of Use 

The cooling packs in the vests are easy to activate and recharge, making them convenient for daily use.
The simplicity of reactivating the cooling technology ensures that users can maintain optimal temperature regulation without significant downtime.

Vests for Men, Redesigned for Women 

Unlike many cooling vests that adopt a unisex-fit approach which tends to favor and be more suitable for the male body, GlacierTek also offers vests specifically designed for women.
Our Gelle vest is the newest vest designed specifically to be an ideal fit, provide enhanced comfort, and create more effective cooling for the female body.

Versatility

The vests are versatile enough to be used across a wide range of activities, from outdoor work and sports to everyday use in hot climates.
This versatility ensures that users can enjoy the benefits of cooling technology in nearly any situation.

Safety and Visibility

The high-visibility options underscore GlacierTek’s commitment to safety, making these vests ideal for use in environments where being seen is crucial.

FAQ About Women's Cooling Vests
Getting to Know Your Vest

Can the Cooling Packs be Replaced?

The cYes, the cooling packs used in Glacier Tek Vests are modular and replaceable.
You can swap out cooling packs as needed at anytime.

Are Glacier Tek Vests Suitable for Use in All Climates?

How Long do the Cooling Effects Last?

The duration of standard cooling packs when tested in a stable environment is approximately 2.5 hours.
External temperatures combined with individual exertion will then affect the longevity of that vest, typical users still see several hours of cooling.
HVAC and more extreme environments can expect a turnaround closer to 90 minutes - 
cooling packs can be recharged in 30 minutes when placed in ice water, allowing users to overcome even the most severe environments by rotating cooling packs.
