New dri-fit cooling vests MSU is testing out. Hose sends cold water into pockets to bring down internal temp pic.twitter.com/UGLqf84Mel

I saw a guy with a prototype similar to this on SharkTank or some show a couple of years ago. I wonder if this is his? Gonna make big money if it works.

Wonder how Adidas feels about a university athletics employee using the term "dri-fit."

But this is great though. Mississippi is a hot *** place.

Looks like two different hoses so maybe it's a circuit. The Yeti cooler they're connected to doesn't look quite big enough though.

Correct we use similar things in hospitals to cool patients down. Right before disconnecting it you can blow air through vest to remove the water. They just copied the principle of a cooling blanket. I'm guessing the pockets are situated around the arm pit area and on the lower back over your kidneys.

I might also add that the ones at work only have about a cup of water at a time in the blanket these things are extremely thin and well thought out. It takes very little water to make it work so the water may actually stay in the vest. The water is pumped through very small veins in the blanket

I'm sure that's exactly what it does. It's also uses the exact principal of the now infamous Nike cool vest that got us kicked out of the Nike club (supposedly)

Totally untrue. Jackie just got back from the annual Nike Hawaii trip that the coaches of Nike teams go on simply because he and Phil Knight are such good friends.

I have personally been present on multiple occasions when Jackie and Phil were on the phone talking shop both when he was our coach and afterward.
