Keep your Kewl
While the heat of summer is upon us, stay cool with Kishigo’s new hi-vis Brisk Cooling series. This innovative personal cooling gear utilizes HyperKewl technology. The fabric absorbs, stores and releases water within the multi-layered structure. From vests to bandanas and sun shields, Kishigo will help keep the summer job site less scorching.
First of all, the heat, humidity and hot sun of summer are an uncomfortable mix. Make sure you stay cool throughout the day with Kishigo’s hi-vis cooling gear. They have created a new cooling technology called Hyperkewl. This product line provides evaporative cooling that is also reusable. The Kishigo 1626 Brisk Cooling bandana tie is lightweight and available in hi-vis yellow/lime. To activate, submerge in cold water for 2-3 minutes. Tie or wrap it around your neck or head. Reuse again and again for cooling comfort and heat stress prevention.

An elastic band allows the shield to fit over most hard hats. Once activated, the cooling effect lasts for 5-10 hours.
