Craftsman has recently announced it’s upcoming, improved revision of their popular heated jacket. The new jacket comes loaded with exciting enhancements that we think will be well received.
The jacket has 5 heating zones for your chest, pockets and back. It now features a “Max Heat” which function provides a more intense burst of heat for up to 30 minutes.
Made with mid-weight fleece, the jacket will keep you warm anywhere and everywhere you go.
As with the old jacket, you can charge your mobile phone in addition to the heat functionality, but Craftsman added an in-pocket USB port so it it more convenient to utilize the feature on the go.
A Nextec 12-volt battery still remains the power source for the jacket, and will guarantee up to 5 hours of continuous warmth.
The jacket is now machine washable, but Craftsman recommends not wearing it if inner lining is wet, definitely a wise proposal.

Although it’s not listed as a feature, I’m pretty sure in a previous press event, Craftsman mentioned the hood is removable, and the wrist and waist cinches were improved as well.
Unlike before, the new jacket comes with a battery and charger included.
