Should you get a heated vest or a heated jacket?
A vest is the pick when you want core warmth without bulky sleeves, which suits active work and layering. Grab a jacket when you need full coverage for cold, still conditions. Many guys own both, and you can see the full heated vests range here, or the women's heated vests if you are shopping as a pair.
How long will a heated vest run on a charge?
Our men's heated vest runs up to 9 hours on low, and about 2 to 3 hours on high. Because it only warms your core, a vest stretches a charge further than a jacket. Toss a spare battery in your bag for all-day cold. The mid settings fall in between, giving you room to dial the heat up or down as needed.
Can you wear a heated vest under a coat?
Yes, wearing a heated vest under a coat is one of the best ways to use it. Wear the vest over a base layer so the panels sit close to your body, then add a shell on top to block wind and hold the heat in. It is a go-to setup for deep cold.
How do you clean a heated vest?
To clean our heated vest, take the battery out, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, and tumble dry on low. Skip bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning, which can damage the panels. Clean it this way and it holds up season after season. Let the vest air out before you store it, and keep the battery on its own charger between wears.
