Kuchofuku Thermal Gear Vest TG22101

Heated sleeveless garment

Isothermal clothes help you through regular cold but when things get really bad - as they do in northern Japan, where snow piles up to 20 meters (65 feet) - you need to either use so many layers that you won't be able to move or to actually pack some heat, as it were. The Kuchofuku Thermal Gear Vest TG22101 offers that and in a way that won't mess with the rest of your wardrobe. As a matter of fact, it's so thin and stylish that if you just wear it over a pair of jeans and a long-sleeve shirt, nobody would believe it has a heating mechanism inside it!

Yet it does, one that takes its power from a multiple-output battery for which it has a special inside pocket. Depending on the output, which can be 3.3 V, 5 V, 6 V, or 7.2 V, the Kuchofuku Thermal Gear Vest TG22101 keeps you warm for over 24 hours and at three temperatures: 40°C (104°F), 50°C (122°F), or 60°C (140°F). As for the fit, the vest has got you covered (literally): it comes in nine sizes, starting from SS and going up to 6L.
