Heated vest. Has anyone bought and used one? Reviews?

The Carhartt vest is the way to go...

I wouldn’t bother with a vest that was heated off a battery pack. For riding gear, it’s totally different, as you have an external power source.

 

Yep I have carhart and get them at a good discount for the drivers.

However I have used Gerbing products which last longer than any other. Before my accident, working outside on the truck decks and then going into some foundries, it was hard to keep warm so I would use a heated vest and socks.

Heated socks. Have never tried them, may have to look into that.

 

Do tell... Carhart offer a discount program for CDL holders? Think you might be my new hero!... swapping from a security/police/fire field to trucking clothes is expensive lol. Pretty much live in tactical BDU style pants and totally sick of it.

 

Saw someone else mention the Milwaukee brand heated jacket they are really good from what I understand, really wish I could have one but I have a medical device implanted that prevents me from doing so. I do have a few friends that I plow with who all have one and talk about how nice it is.

 

Milwaukee sells a range of heated garments, from hoodies to vests and coats. They are AWESOME and reasonably priced if you already own Milwaukee power tools and have the batteries/chargers on hand.
