Default Silver Eagle Cooling Vest

Well folks let me assure they work. Rode 7 hours from basically north of Houston to Junction Texas. Temperatures in the 90's and we stayed cool the entire time. This has been the best accessory purchase to date. We are on a 2 week adventure to Albuquerque, Santa Fe and surrounding area and then to Amarillo, Palo Duro Canyon and finally home. Will update the experience later.

Mine works well provided you don't over saturate it with water. If you do, you'll be hot and clammy!

The only way I could tell it was hot was because my legs were hot, but not overly hot because the vests makes your overall temperature cool.

I have the HD Hydration Vest and rode in 110 temps through the desert and it worked wonders! Best $40 I ever spent!

I was looking at one at the Arrowhead Hearley dealer. Sales girl said it wa better than the Harley brand. She said the Harley one was good for about 40 uses, and the other was good for 1000's of uses.
