Love the material!! Soft interior, practical exterior with bottom pockets.
Rechargeable battery came in a separate packet.
BUT
I waited for a really cold day to experience its full capacity.
However what is disappointing are the heating elements. I feel them fire hot on the stomach side and only very mildly warm on the backside. Unfortunately nothing on the upperback where I tense the most in the cold.
I was hoping for equal distribution of heat at the least…
The vest only works on full battery...
