Kool Tie
This is a must have for anyone who is boating or fishing on a really hot
day. http://www.kooltie.com/ from their web site. The Original Kool Tie is an attractive fabric tubular scarf which contains polymer crystals. When soaked in water, these crystals absorb more than 400 times their original weight (see illustration). The Original Kool Tie cools the body through the natural process of evaporation and never needs to be refrigerated or frozen. This cooling effect is continuous and will last for 2-3 days before a re-soaking is needed. This provides a more efficient & comfortable method of dealing with hot situations than products with frozen inserts. "Freeze & wear" type products are useful only until they melt, usually about an hour. In addition, the extreme coldness can actually create more discomfort--remember the headaches you got as a child when you ate ice cream too fast? The cooling effect of the Original Kool Tie is all natural--you need nothing to activate it except water. The gradual release of moisture provides the cooling effect. These would be very cheap to make, and there are less expensive knock off around, but I have no idea of their quality or comfort, at $10 or $5 for the knock off, both are cheap. |

You be sure to let us know how they work out if you ever go out for a boat ride. |

You be sure to let us know how they work out if you ever go out for a boat ride. I will, I plan on going up tomorrow and spend two days on the boat. Nothing is nicer than an quiet evening on the water. I can't figure out why it would not work exactly as described. I put it on while I was walking the dog, and it is almost too cold, without feeling wet at all. I figure out on the lake in the afternoon it will be perfect. I actually think I will have to move it from my neck to around the brim of my hat so it doesn't get too cold. As much time as you spend boating, you should buy one of each fabric. |

I'm sure I've spent more time "boating" this season than you have, which is no great accomplishment, since you don't have a boat. |

These guys sell them at $2.99, at that price if they hold up, it is not worth making you own. http://tinyurl.com/5u8ypv (Not that I would buy one, of course.) Can polymer crystals be purchased at your local hardware store? They can be purchased any where they do gardening supplies, they go by the brand name "Water Grabbers" or something similar. Could these crystals be incorporated in Jockey Shorts to stay cool all over? Yes, but unless your name is "Horse" the shrinkage factor keeps most men from buying the "Kool Shorts" ) I own both the shorts and the long pants, but my wife calls me "Tripod". |
