Black or White? Pick Your Color

  • If your wardrobe is mostly dark clothing order a black vest. 
  • If your wardrobe is mostly light clothing order a white vest. 
  • If your wardrobe is both dark and light clothing order an Adventure Bundle, it comes with an option for a black and white vest. 

One common question: Is the white vest cooler? White will reflect more sun if the white vest is the outside layer.

However ThermApparel Cooling Vests are designed to be worn under your clothing directly against the skin, so the color doesn't matter in regards to heat reflection.

If you intend to wear your ThermApparel Cooling Vest on the outside or your clothing, please consider heat reflection and go with what works best for your area. 

 

 

Correct Size = Better Cooling

Why is size so important? Easy answer, the size determines how it works. If the Vest Garment is too big, the Cooling Packs seem "floppy" or the Vest Garment doesn't seem tight, you won't get the optimum cooling, the Cooling Packs won't feel cool and they won't last as long. The Cooling Packs work by direct and FIRM contact with the body. 

 

ThermApparel Cooling Vests don't fit like a standard shirt. They wrap around you in a firm but comfortable way to transfer the cooling to your core.

UnderCool fits at your natural waist, this is the area below your ribcage but above your belly button. Think of how a cumberbund or corset fits.

For easy sizing guidelines watch this fantasticvideo with Julia or we can send you a free FitKit, that comes with a measuring tape and sizing tips. 

Sizing Tips:

  1. Sizing for your ThermApparel UnderCool Cooling Vest is really important because it's based on your natural waist. It’s very simple to find your natural waist and you can do it one of two ways.

  2. Stand or sit up nice and tall and bend to the side, where your body naturally creases is your natural waist. Think of the “I'm a Little Teapot” song …” tip me over and pour me out”…right, where you crease, is where you want to measure.
  • You can find your natural waist in the area below your rib cage but above your belly button. Right in the center part of your abdomen, in the narrower part where your body naturally narrows
  • Sizing is based on your natural waist, not your hips or pant size. 
  • Measure against your skin.
  • Avoid using anything that has stretch to measure with.
  • Take your measurements in front of a mirror.
  • Make sure your tape measure is level on both sides. 
  • UnderCool needs to fit your body like a glove to give you the best cooling support.
  • You will wear a size smaller than you think. 

Women's Sizing Guide:

  • Sizing is dependent on natural waist size, not bust size.
  • You will wear a smaller size than you think. 
  • If you are between 2 sizes order the LARGER size

1. Stand or sit up straight and tall.

2. Bend at both sides.
Where you naturally
bend in your natural
waist.

3. Measure where you bend.
If you don't bend measure below rib cage but above belly button.

Men's Sizing Guide:

  • We recommend ordering a size smaller than your usual T-shirt size.
  • (If you wear a large T-shirt, a Medium UnderCool will fit best.)
  • Sizing is dependent on your natural waist size, not hip or belt size
  • You will wear a smaller size than you think. 
  • If you are between 2 sizes order the LARGER size

1. Stand or sit up straight and tall.

2. Bend at both sides.
Where you naturally
bend in your natural
waist.

3. Measure where you bend.
If you don't bend measure below rib cage but above belly button.

 

Don’t Have a Fabric Measuring Tape?

You can measure your waist the same way with a straight ruler and:
String / Yarn
Dental Floss
Shoelace
Charging cord from your phone

 

Cooling Time vs Weight

There are 2 cooling pack choices. It's simple. One lasts longer than the other. SlimCool Packs last 1-2 hours and ExtendedCool packs last 2-3 hours. 

Think about what activities you intend to use your ThermApparel Cooling Vest for and how long it takes to complete the activity. If you are going for a short walk use the SlimCool Paks, if you are playing Golf, go for the ExtendedCool Packs

Examples of choices.

  • I am going to be sitting most of the time. Slim Cool
  • I am doing hard aerobic workouts. Extended Cool
  • I go for a short walk each day. SlimCool
  • I am going to hike in the morning. Extended cool

What is the difference other than time? The ExtendedCool packs weigh a small amount more. 
The Vest Garment with 4 SlimCool Cooling Packs weighs 1.3 lbs
The Vest Garment with 4 ExtendedCool Cooling Packs weighs 1.9 lbs.
