The heated vest is made from the outer shell and the inner layer. That means the material is different. Starting with the outer shell, the main purpose is to against the water and wind. To achieve the purpose, polyester and nylon which both perform well in keeping the water and wind out are the main materials of the outer layer. Unlike the outer, the inner layer is mainly to keep the body warm. The soft lining featuring remarkable thermal insulation like fleece or down is the priority.
