Sizing Chart

Ruffwear's apparel features an active, tailored fit that hugs close to your dog's body, designed to move with their natural range of motion. Measurement is determined by your dog’s chest girth, measured around the widest part of the rib cage. Coverage may fit slightly shorter or longer depending on your dog’s proportions. If between sizes, size up for a more relaxed fit, or down for a more snug fit.

When shade is low and the mercury is high, dogs can count on the Swamp Cooler™ Vest to help keep the adventure going. Strategic material choices and design offer solutions for the challenges that hot-weather exploring presents. The light-colored fabric reflects solar radiation, while wetting the vest activates our Swamp Cooler™ Tech for that refreshing, just-stepped-out-of-a-lake feeling also known as evaporative cooling. Just give it a soak, put it on your dog, and go. When it dries, re-soak it to recharge it.

The Swamp Cooler™ Vest includes side-release buckles for easy on/off and a leash portal so it can be worn over a harness – topping off the essential features to make it our highest-coverage cooling option in the Swamp Cooler™ Collection. How does Swamp Cooler™ Tech work? Learn more about evaporative cooling and other ways to keep your dog cool here.

Three-Layer Construction

Wicking outer layer: reflects heat, facilitates evaporation to disperse heat, and offers UPF 50+. Absorbent middle layer: stores water for evaporation. Mesh lining: keeps dog dry and comfortable.

    Swamp Cooler Cooling Dog Vest

    We have used the vest on 2 walks (sunny, 78 and 84 degrees) and once playing fetch in the afternoon sun(85 degrees ). I was surprised how much cooler she felt when I put my hand under the vest. The outer fabric dries but the inside stays damp. We are looking forward to testing it out more.

    Works Great in Arizona Heat

    This Swamp Cooler Vest works great in the Arizona heat. Not only does it keep my pup cool but it also provides shade from the strong sun. Its design is unique as it is much longer than other cooling vests so his entire body is covered.

    Fully recommend this product!

    Swamp Cooler Cooling Dog Vest

    The jacket fits Youme well, despite being a bit big, but not tried on yet because the temperature is not warm enough.

    Swamp Cooler Dog Vest

    The Swamp Cooler Vest is perfect for the warm and hot summer days. My girl Brandi is staying nice and cool and not over heated. No more overheated panting. If the vest is dry I just pour more water over her back and off we go. When we get back home and I take the vest off I am amazed how she is cool to the touch. I wish I knew about this cooling vest when we lived in South Florida.
