KOOL MAX® WATER-BASED COOLING PACKS
Reusable, water-based packs require access to a freezer and offer the highest level of cooling energy. It’s science! It takes more energy to charge these packs in a freezer and in return, the packs offer greater cooling energy for a longer time. -
COOL58® PHASE CHANGE COOLING PACKS
Reusable, phase change packs fully charge (freeze) at 58°F (14.4°C) and provide a comfortable, constant cooling temperature of 58°F. Ideal choice when freezers are not available; these packs can be activated in 20 minutes in a container of ice water! Additional time required if activating packs in the refrigerator or freezer.
MINIMAL WEIGHT, MAXIMUM COVERAGE
The number of pack pockets sewn into the vest varies according to vest size.
This allows maximum cooling pack coverage according to the size of the person
while minimizing the weight.
The location of the packs along the spine in the back also maximizes the
cooling effect while minimizing weight.
FLEXIBILITY TO MEET YOUR COOLING NEEDS
Individual packs allow maximum flexibility in varying the number of packs used. This allows for customizing the vest weight and location of cooling

comfort will vary from person to person and is strictly the responsibility of
each individual user.

encapsulated material is nontoxic, it can cause a skin rash. Flush exposed
area with warm, soapy water and wash with baking soda.

for a medical condition.
Polar Products, Inc. will not be liable for injuries or damages resulting from
misuse or misapplication of our products.
WEARING YOUR VEST
Our high-quality vests are constructed of cotton or nylon fabric. The vest should fit snug to the body for optimal performance. The vest provides adjustable fit through the use of hook and loop straps at the shoulders, chest and waist. Simply place the vest on your body and adjust for a snug fit.
PLACEMENT OF PACKS
The vest uses 5 to 12 individual 4.5” x 6” cooling packs. Not all packs must be used with the vest. Each person may customize the number of packs used and the location of the packs. Some people find they may only need a few packs on the back for instance, others want to use them all. It is your choice!
USING THE KOOL MAX® COOLING PACKS
Place the packs flat into a freezer until frozen hard. For best results, store the packs in the freezer, so they’re ready when you are. When ready to use, simply remove the packs from the freezer and place in the insulated pockets in the vest. Frozen packs may betransported or stored in a cooler for later use.
USING THE COOL58® COOLING PACKS
Place the packs flat into a container of ice water, refrigerator or freezer until fully-charged (frozen hard). The packs turn solid white when they’re ready. When ready to use, simply remove the packs from the ice water, refrigerator or freezer and place in the insulated pockets in the vest.
Note: Additional time required if activating packs in the refrigerator or freezer.
COOLING DURATION
Kool Max® packs provide cooling for up to 4 hours in any climate; Cool58®
packs provide cooling for up to 3 hours in any climate. Cooling times are
estimates.
The length of time Kool Max® and Cool58® cooling vests will cool depends on
many
factors, including the activity and body metabolism of the person wearing the
vest and the temperature of the environment. The cooling potential may also be
adjusted by wearing one or more layers of clothing between the body and the
vest.
Note: One or more layers of insulating fabric should always be worn between
the skin and the cooling pack when using the packs from the freezer.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Vest: For cotton vests, hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Hang in
a well-ventilated area to dry. For nylon vests, wipe down with a damp cloth or
anti-bacterial disinfecting wipe. It may also be cleaned by hand washing in
cool water with a mild detergent. Hang in a well-ventilated area to dry.
Cooling Packs: Packs may be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
Note: Store packs in freezer or cool, dry environment when not in use.
TESTIMONIALS
HEAR WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT OUR COOLING VESTS!
“Your cooling vests are amazing. I have RA and take Methotrexate, and as a
result I am very heat intolerant. I received my vest last week and was able to
be outside in 100-degree heat for two hours and didn’t over heat! Thank you
for making these life changing products.”
– Holli in Texas

– Judy in Minnesota
“Living in Florida, I can’t live without this. I tell people about it all the
time, and when people ask me what I’m wearing, I make them try it on. They are
always so impressed and wanting one for themselves! This is the most amazing
product invented on earth.”

“My wife has had a Polar Kool Max vest for over 10 years to help her deal with
the heat – she has MS. We’re looking at five or six days with temps around 90
this week, and she would be stuck in the house without this cooling vest. It
is invaluable at times like this.”
– Chip in California
