Five Pieces, One Battery System

Blaze Lightweight Diamond Quilted Heated Puffer Jacket
The mover. A low-bulk ripstop quilted shell for high-activity days when you need warmth without the bulk.
Blaze Midweight Two-Tone Heated Puffer Jacket
The all-day jacket. Articulated elbows for reaching and lifting, with a fleece-lined adjustable hood for when the wind picks up.

The layering piece. Same chest and back heat zones as the jackets, with your arms free.
Blaze Heated Quarter Zip Sweatshirt
The workhorse for layering underneath. A duck shell with reinforced heavy-wear zones at the hem, shoulders, and inner arms, plus a removable hood with adjuster toggles and a stand collar.
Built to KEY's Workwear Standards
