Vest seems well made with even stitching and smooth zippers. Controls are simple. Warms up well and the three heat settings are sufficient. A medium was ordered and fit as expected. Fits loose over shirt/tee shirt and is comfortable with an outer layer over top. Read more

I bought this vest on the recommendation of my daughter, who has a medical condition which leaves her perpetually chilled. She mentioned the quality of construction and the way that it regulated the heat as its main virtues. It also happens to be fairly affordable. I bought mine when I learned that I was going to a Chicago Bears game on a day when temperatures were predicted to be 4F and -11F with the wind chill at the start of the tailgate and rising to 11F during the game, where we were going to be seated in shade. Following instructions from an AI assistant, I placed the vest as my 2nd layer, over a thin, high quality wool-blend base layer. Several more layers were added on top of that. I also brought along an insulated, hooded stadium cape, but after weathering the tailgate without it, I left that cape in the truck. During the entire day, the only part of my torso that ever felt even the slightest bit cold was where my lower back hit the cold stadium seat back, and that was when the vest was set to medium, which is where it had been set up until that point. I brought along a heated balaclava, but didn't use that because it only heats the back of my neck and the Ororo vest already heats that area. I had borrowed my daughter's battery pack from her vest since I was going to be outside from about 9am to 4pm. By 1:30, my original battery was down to 25% or less, so I swapped them. The one feature I didn't particularly like was that the pocket for the battery is difficult to access, especially when layered up. But being inside the vest keeps it warm and preserves the battery capacity. I kind of wish they had a little more space in that pocket or a second pocket on the other side to store a backup battery. Keeping the batteries warm prevents the capacity loss that lithium batteries suffer when cold. I see that with my EV in the winter when its summertime range of 250 miles drops to 150 miles when the weather is this cold. One small criticism is the slow charging for the included battery pack. While you can plug it into a wide range of chargers, the charging is limited to low amperage, so figure on 4 hours to charge. On the upside, there doesn't seem to be a danger of damaging the battery by plugging it into a higher amperage charger, which isn't always the case. Read more

After reading the reviews - I went with a large size and it was just a little larger than normal. However when wearing a hoodie under the vest - it fits great and you can still feel the warmth of the vest. I almost went with a smaller size to wear it closer to my skin but it doesn’t seem to be required to keep warm. It does take 4 hrs to charge. Read more

Perfect to wear under an oversized jacket to keep warm while working or playing outside. Battery life isn't the greatest but can be upgraded. Best is decent quality and has many pockets with one easily setup for battery storage. Read more

I've used this vest several times, it works great. Read more

I hesitated to buy this vest at first, even when it was on a lightning deal—but after wearing it through a full Kentucky winter, I’d gladly pay full price without hesitation. It’s become my go-to jacket, and I haven’t touched any of my other coats since. I wore it for over three hours outdoors taking Santa photos on one of the coldest days of the season, with temperatures well below zero. Even though it’s just a vest, it kept my core perfectly warm the entire time. The heated pockets were a lifesaver during short breaks, and the warmth it provided made the cold much more manageable. Battery life has been excellent. I’ve used it on long, cold days and have never once had it run out on me. If I had to mention a downside, the neck gets a little too warm for my taste—but wearing a hoodie underneath fixes that easily. My only real regret is not also buying the heated gloves and socks to go with it. This vest is comfortable, dependable, and absolutely ready for real winter conditions. I love it, and I highly recommend it to anyone who’s on the fence. Read more
