Heated gilets...?

Bought a chinese one with the kidney, back, breast and neck panels, and a decent power bank - it’s like a warm cuddle on a cold day…🥰

Anyone that says it’s unmanly can sit there and shiver…I’ll just laugh at them in a cosy unmanly manner….🙄

Definitely worth is and the chinese one I have is a few years old now - still going strong.

Which one d'ya buy @gixer1 ?
 
I've recently picked up this one

Amazon product ASIN B0C9DFQK7W
Just got in from several hours foxing, absolutely excellent. As mentioned, not really necessary when walking around and generating heat but when stood still in sub zero temperature it comes into its own.

Not sure what the longevity will be like but it's not silly money if it needs replacing.
 
I have a deerhunter one, bought last jan on sale at bushwear. The harkila one was really nice but didn't feel worth twice the cost.

I wouldn’t be without it. Sitting in high seat is very different now, and if you get warm walking you can turn it down/ off or just stick it in the roe sack. I only wear a base layer beneath it usually. It has a slim battery which lasts 2-3hrs on full heat. If you need longrr than that an extra battery is maybe £20.

Its great too for working from home on laptop when you don’t move much and generate any warmth.
This. I have a deerhunter one as well, wouldn’t be without it for the high seat and other activities in the cold, gotten a larger battery pack which is handy if you’ve forgotten to charge phone/thermal/NV before going out.

For walked stalking can do without it.

Worth the money IMO if it keeps some additional dexterity in the body
 
😊 just been trying to buy one, certainly a learning experience on my third attempt with one to send back, fortunately free return. Watch the sizing as they come up very small, they claim to convert Asian sizes to U.K., all i can say is Asian men are a lot thinner than u.k. equivalents 😊 or as my wife tells me i am getting fat 😂😂

Then the more heating areas the less hot each areas gets as obviously only so much current/energy the battery can deliver. Tried a jumper/vest one with sleeves had lots of heating areas but the sleeves around the elbow were very tight and want it for mainly clay shooting, so was not ideal.

I have now gone up two sizes with the replacement, hopefully that will fit and trying one without sleeve.

However on the plus side they are not expensive £15.00. Waiting for one of these to arrive.

 
Been trying to find some locally so I can try the fit. No one does them shop wise!
I’ve this one in medium. If it helps I’m 6ft and on the lean side, could probably have done with a large.

I also use this, I'm 5ft9(also know as just under 6ft 😂) very good and also useful as just another layer. I got large and it came with a free power-pack from new forest clothing last year Cost me about 130 all in on a sale
 
Similarly on the shooterking and Vagor sites in the clearance sales, I assume you need to buy the powerpack seperately but they are only £15 from Bushwear I-Heat Long Sleeve Thermo Underwear | ShooterKing
I have the shooterking, T-shirt and leggings. The leggings work well. The T-shirt doesn’t. Someone earlier on said shooterking aftersales was awful. Well, I have emailed them earlier this week, and no answer. So will be chasing them next week.
