When riding in warm weather, heat stroke and dehydration are real concerns. They could not only end your ride, they could possibly end your life. Stay cool with a TechNiche Deluxe Evaporative Cooling Vest. The Deluxe ECV comes with a high collar featuring a hook and loop neck closure for even more cooling and sun protection than the standard vest. These vests feature hand zippered pockets and are lightweight, durable, and washable. Best of all they provide up to 10 hours of cooling relief per soaking when used with mesh riding gear or with all vents open on leather or textile jackets. With TechNiche’s specially designed quilted nylon outer layer, polymer embedded fabric inner layer, water repellant nylon liner, and black cotton-poly elastic trim, the Deluxe Evaporative Cooling Vest is comfortable on even the longest summer day. Ride cool with the TechNiche Deluxe Evaporative Cooling Vest.

Each vest ships with our own exclusive care instructions created just for motorcyclists by the motorcyclists at Sound RIDER!  We've used these vests since 2002.  We know how to store them best, how to clean them and make them last a long time.  To that end we've compiled a simple to follow sheet of information available only from us.  Maximize your investment!

Planning to ride in conditions over 100 degrees?  Consider getting one of our vests with removable sleeves.

A 4 liter dry sack (shown below) is a great way to store and hydrate your cooling vest.  It not only won't leak like a plastic bag - it looks better too!

Color Selection:  The most effective way for the vest to work coolest and stay wet longest is to wear it under your riding jacket with the vents open.  That being said, color selection is a secondary issue here.  Thinking of getting a lime for more visibility? If you’re using the vest properly, no one will see it. 

Blue and Hi-Viz lime in this model may take up to 21 days for delivery, depending on stock levels in our warehouse. You may call us for stock status, or simply order a silver now.

If you are outside the United States, you must also add the Techniche non U.S. resident shipping item to your cart for each vest ordered in order for your order to be completed.

READ SIZING INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE ORDERING

Sizing information: Sizes run true to your jacket size if you have a flat stomach (not a tee-shirt size which tends to run smaller than normal). Guys - If you wear a 'large' motorcycle jacket, order a large vest; if you wear an 'XL' - then order an XL vest and so on. The numbers reflect CHEST SIZE in inches, so break out that tape measure. However... If you have a bit of a belly, go for the next size up. If your waist size (the area measured at your belly button) is larger than your chest size, select the size according to your waist size, not chest measurement.
