Men's Large M12 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Gray Heated Hoodie (Hoodie Only)

First off, this is no cheap made hoodie. It’s very well made one the outside and the inner liner. It’s made to hold up and last. I love the look and the feel. The cuffs and waist fit closely, keeping in heat and staying out of the way while working. The hood fits the same way. It’ll keep in the heat, but stay out of the way of you vision too. These pockets are going to hold up longer too. The edges are reinforced and the insides aren’t some thin, flimsy material. This thing wasn’t just thrown together. A lot of thought was put into it. I like the “Waffle Weave Thermal Lining”, you can just see that it’s better and will last longer too. It’s thicker and more insulated than any I’ve used before. Now for the heating. There is a zippered pocket in the rear that contains the power cord. Once you place your M12 battery into the holder, you’ll be able to plug the hoodie into it and you’ve got heat. Simply press down on the M12 logo on the front, you can hear it click and when the logo lights up, it’s on. From there you can choose three different settings or turn it off. The logo lights up with three different colors, according to the level of heat you have. Red for the highest setting, the white, then blue. You have up to six hours of warmth, according to the level and the battery you choose. The hoodie works best when it’s closer to your skin. I use one of the WORKSKIN shirts underneath the hoodie. The more clothing you have on between you and the hoodie, the less you’ll feel the heat. Don’t insulate yourself from the heat. It’s nice to be able to move again and not have to have seven layers on. Cleaning the hoodie is easy. Remove the battery and its holder. Tuck the power cord back into the pocket completely and close. Set your washer on gentle with warm water. DO NOT DRY CLEAN. DO NOT BLEACH. DO NOT TWIST OR WRING. Tumble dry on LOW heat. DO NOT IRON. You gotta work, so why not be comfortable. We all know Milwaukee makes great tools and their clothing is great too. The other thing about their clothing is that it looks good after work too, like at sporting events, outdoor events and on that motorcycle. It’s some of the best made, most comfortable clothing out there.

This heated hoodie jacket from Milwaukee is one of the most comfortable jackets I have ever worn. Even though it has electric battery operated heaters built in, it is extremely warm, comfortable, and light weight. The battery pack is easy to reach and stores in a very clever pouch behind me to avoid damaging it or bothering me. The zipper design is thick and heavy duty. The zipper lanyard makes it easy to zip or unzip with gloves. I own the blue colored one and it looks great in my opinion. The cuffs are probably my favorite part. They are snug and wide to keep the jacket away from the work I am doing. Also lets me don safety gloves with ease and the cuff tuck underneath them nicely. The snug design feature gives me the added security that it will not get caught on rotating machinery. The convenient on and off button lets me turn it on and off easily to manage the electric heaters for maximum comfort heating conditions and battery consumption. The inner liner while it is not removable it is just thick enough to keep we warm without the electric heaters on average cool days. This is one jacket I recommend for all Techs in the field to own. Another Milwaukee winner!

Gotta love Milwaukee gear. Even better when you already own the battery platform. This navy blue hoodie is well suited for any cold weather activity. It heats up fast and Is made of high quality materials. Can’t wait for the weather to get cold so I can show this off and put it to good use. I would definitely recommend this to friends for those cold winter days

It's very light weight and durable. He lives it and the hoodie keeps him warm! He got it for Christmas and refuses to wear another coat. Plus it Didn't even disturb the baby lol

Great hoodie, keeps me warm when outside, or just warming up my car in the morning. Almost too nice to use at work because I don't want to ruin it. Only drawback for me was ordering correct size online since no HD in my area stock them. I went by Milwaukee's sizing chart, which put me in a more expensive 3x, and ended up being too big.

I really like this hoodie. It is warmer than I expected even without the electric heating turned on. It fits me well, but of course that is very subjective. I bought the hoodie only, not the kit, because I already had M12 batteries and the kit only comes with a 1.5 Ah battery. C'mon, the kit version should come with a least a 2.0 and preferably the 3.0 Ah battery that will also fit. Those choices would last a lot longer. Another nit is that the battery holder is just that, a battery holder and nothing else. The jacket comes with a holder that is also a USB power source and gives you the 4-light indication of the level of the battery charge as shown in the photos. Those two issues are why I rated it a "four".

Jacket heats nicely but it doesn't come with the advertised battery holder. There should be a led battery life guage and USB port. The picture on the box even shows them. I wanted to use the battery holder as phone charger also.

I wish it came with the m12 power source (49-24-2310) that has the fuel gauge on it so you can monitor battery. Heats well. I recently purchased the m18 power source and a new 3.0 HD battery and now I can go a whole day.

I use this jacket for work under a much heavier jacket. Does a great job of adding that extra warmth when you turn it on. It makes working outside just a little more tolerable in Canada in the winter.

The Milwaukee M12 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Heated Hoodie Kit is ideal for casual wear, or working outdoors in the spring and fall seasons. New for this hoodie is the Quick-Heat function that heats up 3-times faster than the previous versions. It provides heat to the chest and back, and the on/off switch is located at the outside left breast area and glows red, white or blue for high, medium and low settings. It comes with the full-zippered hoodie, one 1.5 amp-hour battery and plug-in charger. The material is very flexible for comfort, and includes a waffle weave thermal lining that traps heat. The two utility pockets are large and have reinforced edges for tear and abrasion resistance. The hood has a pull string and provides full vision when wearing a hat. The only thing I would have liked to see is a Compact USB Charger, along with a controlling unit for charging cell phones. Other than that, this is a highly functional garment and I plan on using it a lot.
