Venustas Heated Down Vest for Men's Hiking and Skiing, Gray, Size X-Large, 6-Zone Electric Heat

Venustas Men's Recycled Heated Down Vest is a lightweight, battery-powered puffer that blends responsibly sourced 90% down insulation with six-zone electric heating for adjustable warmth during outdoor activities.

This heated vest combines sustainability and performance: a 20D recycled nylon shell resists wind and light moisture, an OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified down fill delivers high warmth-to-weight efficiency, and an integrated battery system powers fast, evenly distributed heat. Designed for layering, it remains compressible for travel and includes practical details like YKK zippers, secure pockets, and an adjustable hem to lock in warmth.

How does the dual system of down and electric heating improve cold-weather comfort?

Using both down and controlled electric heat gives you steady passive insulation plus on-demand warmth where you need it. The down traps body heat while the vest’s six heating zones target core areas for quick temperature boosts, minimizing bulk while maximizing comfort.

• 90% responsibly sourced down for high warmth-to-weight ratio
• Six heating zones: neck, left and right chest, lower back, and both pockets
• Graphene-enhanced lining for faster, even heat distribution
• Compressible design for easy packing and layering

What battery performance and controls can I expect on a day out?

The included battery charges in roughly four hours and offers up to 10 hours of heat at lower settings, with three temperature levels selectable by a single button. It also doubles as a power bank so you can top up a phone while on the trail.

• Recharge time: about 4 hours
• Runtime: up to 10 hours on low heat setting
• Three adjustable heat settings accessed with one press
• USB output for charging devices on the go

Is the vest suitable for active outdoor use like hiking and skiing?

The shell’s lightweight 20D recycled nylon resists wind and light precipitation and keeps the vest packable for dynamic activities. Its streamlined cut allows freedom of movement, and performance features such as secure zip pockets and an adjustable hem make it practical for snow sports and trail days.

• Wind and light rain/snow protection from durable recycled fabric
• Streamlined quilted construction for unrestricted arm movement
• Secure zip pockets for essentials while active
• Adjustable hem to maintain fit during vigorous motion

How should I care for the heated down vest to preserve function and loft?

Follow the manufacturer’s gentle care guidance to protect the heating elements and down fill. The vest is designed for gentle machine washing at low temperature; always remove the battery before cleaning and use a gentle cycle to retain loft and electronic integrity.

• Remove the battery pack before washing
• Machine wash gently on low temperature
• Tumble dry low with clean tennis balls to restore loft if recommended
• Avoid harsh detergents and high-heat drying that can damage elements
