Comfortable and large enough (I’m not small). Got to try the vest out today 106 in our area of Texas - had one outdoor errand and had to unpack a van in the hot afternoon
Tired of being a prisoner on my house during August
This product was definitely worth it for me!
As an older runner-walker, age 76, I have been struggling with overheating on my long run-walks. This causes a drop in blood pressure that has affected my ability to do races longer than a 10k. Slow as I have become with age, I hated giving it up. After trying other cooling devices, I was fearing there was no solution. I saw the Oro Sports ad and purchased the full vest. I was very skeptical, expecting it to be too heavy and annoying but it has been great. I have used it for six and seven mile runs so far and it has remained cold, keeping me from overheating. I am slow but it has remained just as cool after a couple of hours. Next up is ten miles but I expect it to work great. This morning I signed up for my next half marathon! You may think you are selling sports gear but what you sent me was the ability to keep doing what I love. Thanks!
I live in the south where we suffer high humidity with 85 to 105 temps all summer, plus I live with an autoimmune disease that makes temperature regulation a challenge due to spinal cord inflammation. If I push into the heat it results in a neurologic flare, not good!
This vest has been a game changer! No more avoiding walks in the heat, no more short acting ice packs in my pockets and bra, no more wet clothes, and I can even cool off my hands by placing them under the vest. Another positive, I was concerned it wouldn't fit my body shape with it being a short vest, but the adjustability works perfectly without any rub spots.
On a high humidity, 95+ degree day, exercising moderately hard - this vest cools well for 45 mins, and slightly for another 20 ish. Well worth the investment!
I'm so thrilled to have found a way to stay cool (cooler, anyway) in oppressive Florida summers and the extreme humidity. The vest works perfectly and stays cool for a few hours, enough for a good workout or run outdoors, even midday. I also purchased the headbands and cuffs when I'm doing a shorter workout or even just doing yard work. I plan on getting the cooling products for my dog too. The customer service is stellar as well and they'll answer questions about fit, etc. So glad I found them!
With our Arizona heat, this is perfect for outdoor activities during the summer.
