The PIP 390-EZ101 Evaporative Cooling Vest is a lightweight, contoured cooling solution designed to help workers manage heat stress during strenuous activity. It uses KewlFabric evaporative cooling material that absorbs water and slowly releases it through evaporation, providing a cooling effect for 5–10 hours after a brief 1–2 minute soak. This system leverages the body's natural cooling process to maintain comfort without relying on bulky or power-dependent technology, making it suitable for active environments where moving parts or batteries may be problematic.
The vest features a quilted nylon outer shell with an inner cooling fabric and a water-repellent nylon liner, delivering a comfortable, secure layer under work apparel while the zipper closure and V-neck design offer practical wearing and donning. After use, the fabric dries, helping to minimize mold or mildew when properly stored. The product is reusable and launderable, and it comes in Hi-Vis Yellow for visibility in work zones. Activation time is quick—about 1–2 minutes—making it a convenient option for timed breaks or shifts with high heat exposure.
Ideal use cases include hot outdoor or indoor settings where workers require sustained cooling without electrical systems. Users should soak the vest as directed, wring out excess water, and wear it to gain the cooling benefit for several hours. Maintenance involves machine washing and hang drying, with a recommended water temperature of 40°C. Packaging is individual, with a case quantity of 25 for easy stocking and distribution, ensuring readiness for teams or multiple work shifts.
