For motorcyclists searching for cool comfort this summer, the new Zerofit IceSkin Vest offers bikers another best-in-class option alongside our existing IceSkin products for beating the heat.
The unisex Vest incorporates the Cool Stamp Tech® and Rhombus Mesh Design that features in all of the IceSkin products, helping to make it more than three and a half times colder than competitor products.
It is available in both Mock and V-Neck designs and comes in black, priced at £59.95.
Ice Cold Tech Talk
The IceSkin Vest uses Cool Stamp Tech® on the front portion of the Baselayer - when the cooling print absorbs moisture (sweat) generated by the skin, its heat absorption properties lower the temperature of the fabric, providing a cool sensation.
The product was subject to Q-max testing at the Boken Quality Evaluation Institute, Japan’s leading organisation for clothing and textile fabric analysis – this examination offers up an analysis of how cool the surface of the IceSkin fabric is. The higher the Q-max value, the cooler the fabric.
Number Crunching
Currently, if the Q-max value of a product is 0.1 W/cm2 or more, it is recognized as having ‘cool contact performance’.
The IceSkin recorded a value of 0.358W/cm2 – whereas a standard competitor product would typically score below 0.1 W/cm2 – making it more than THREE AND A HALF TIMES COOLER, even in temperatures up to 40° Celsius.
Sweat Science
The new Rhombus Mesh Design on the back of the IceSkin Vest has been innovated to target the area where perspiration builds up the most.
The unique structure lets in air and quickly absorbs and disperses moisture from inside the garment, preventing unpleasant stickiness and chills from sweat, and helping to keep you dry and comfortable.
Stretch and StayFresh™
The Vest’s thin, lightweight fabric features optimal stretch capacities for complete comfort, allowing riders to move freely without stress.
It also uses Polygiene StayFresh™ silver ion antibacterial treatment which suppresses 99% of odour-causing bacteria and additionally helps to eliminate sweat odour.
