Default Heated hoodies or vests

The time for all days sits is comin up and I was wondering what you guys have for heated hoodies or vests??? I have an old Milwaukee hoodie Probly 12 or so yrs old, it still works but I don’t think it has many heat elements in it as I really have to push my back against the tree to feel any kind of heat lol..I think it’s one of the original models that first came out. Been washed tons of times an seems to still work but I’m sure there is better nowadays so fire away with what ya have!!

I just bought a heater body suit. Haven’t tried it yet. Seems well made.

I just wear layers and when it’s really cold I will stick disposable foot warmers on my under shirt chest and lower back

I have been tempted by heater body suits and the heated vests but I am cheap lol

I have a Milwaukee m12 zippered hoodie and love it. If you can stand having a 5 amp battery in your pocket it’ll last a long time.

E-wool. They make a very nice vest. Spendy, but a great item. I’d love to try out their electric socks as well but man. It’s again, a gross cost.

I’ve used the Robax heat pads for your lower back. They aren’t cheap either but are outstanding. Really heat up your core and stay active for a lot longer than most will maintain a perch.

My partner has heated everything...seats, handlebars, helmet, foot warmers, vest, gloves, socks, boots....fml

Her best gear according to her? Her FXR gear and her Cabelas -100 degree boots with foot warmers. Chick has 9% body fat so she shivers in July

But she will stand outside and watch me work if she is wearing FXR gear.

Go figure
