Ride out in the summer!

Although motorcycling in the winter can be very exciting and adventurous, almost all motorcyclists look forward to those long and warm summer rides with their entourage – with the sun beating down on them, riding on dry and open roads from early morning until sunset.

But no matter how dedicated and persistent motorcyclists are in performing their ‘rituals’ during the summer season, the scorching temperatures can eventually begin to take their toll, especially since they have to wear adequate protective clothing. Heat stress is something that can prove to be very dangerous when riding a two-wheeler – whether on empty roads that are endless or in crowded urban areas. Summer temperatures and humidity levels often hinder your body's ability to dissipate excess heat fast enough, making you less efficient as a motorcyclist. Many riders have unfortunately experienced this firsthand when heat exhaustion has caused them to have an accident.

Don’t be that rider!

The INUTEQ-DRY® evaporative cooling vest uses a revolutionary body cooling technology that can keep street bikers cool and comfortable, making them more focused and safer.

This DRY evaporative cooling vest is machine washable and has antibacteriële properties to keep you cool and feel safe and confident while riding. The unique cooling vest is designed specifically with environments where cooling is in high demand but resources are scarce or very limited. The dry cooling solution uses no more than 600 ml of water for up to 1-3 days of cooling. The evaporative cooling vest is simply activated once by filling it with plain tap water and enjoy an immediate and lasting cooling effect. Protect yourself in temperatures up to 40°C with low to medium humidity. The airier it is, the better our evaporative cooling vests for motorcyclists’work.

When you think about it, it is a very practical, convenient and cost-effective way to stay fresh and cool while enjoying daytime riding in the summer.

Why you need additional gear like Cooling Vests for Motorcycle Riding

As fun and exciting as it is riding a bike out on the open road, extreme temperatures can give the feeling of a giant hair dryer blowing at you. This can prove to be quite dangerous as even the initial signs of a heat stroke can affect your decision making abilities and adversely affect your skills when it comes to riding your bike safely.

By not taking the necessary precautions, you may be putting your safety as well as that of others at risk. This is unnecessary and you can easily beat the heat by wearing the right INUTEQ cooling apparel. Scientific studies have proven that recreational activities in warm and humid weather can have an undesirable effect on safety, health and concentration levels – and that the best ‘comfort zone’ for such activities is around 22°C.

INUTEQ's evaporative cooling vests are so effective that they have been used for years in professional motorcycling, motocross and cycling. The vests cool on a large body surface area and while riding you hardly notice that you have something extra on. Today, professional and recreational motorcyclists wear INUTEQ cooling vests because they work remarkably well in low to moderate humidity and ambient temperatures up to 40°C. The faster you ride, the more air flows around the vest and the better the cooling is.

All of INUTEQ's cooling vests for motorcycling are very easy to use and reuse. They are machine washable and can provide up to 15°C of coolness below ambient temperature. INUTEQ'S H20® cooling vests are a great alternative with their super-absorbent cooling fabric that offers both excellent evaporative cooling and an economical price. As with DRY evaporative cooling vests, your H20® cooling vest can also be activated by soaking it in water for up to two minutes and gently squeezing out the excess water before putting it on. 
Depending on humidity and air flow, you can enjoy 2-8 hours of body cooling while riding your two-wheeler. The more air flows, the more cooling you experience. Enjoy cooling 15°C below ambient temperature every time you ride.

Each H20® cooling vest is machine washable and anti-bacterial, and developed with a unique water-repellent liner to keep you nice, dry and comfortable as long as you wear it. Plus, it’s also designed to withstand temperatures up to 40°C with ease.
