New Neck Shade makes it Easier to Keep Cool

The new Cooling Neck Shade from Silver Eagle Outfitters offers a better way to keep your cool when working in the heat

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama--February 11, 2005-- Designed to fit standard hardhat liners and ball caps, the new Cooling Neck Shade from Silver Eagle Outfitters, the leaders in evaporative cooling product design and manufacturing, offers convenient cooling relief to outdoor workers and outdoors enthusiasts who know too well the danger and discomfort of the heat.

Like Silver Eagle's other headwear, vests, and blankets, the new Cooling Neck Shade is made of the company's unique three-layer evaporative cooling fabric that works with water to offer hours of effective cooling. The cooling process is activated when water is added to the fabric, either from a running tap, submersion in a sink, or in a zip-lock activation bag. Once activated, the evaporative cooling process lasts from three to five hours, depending on environmental conditions. For convenience, the shade can be activated up to 24 hours in advance and stored in a water-tight bag or container, allowing a wearer to alternate Neck Shades even when water is not available or when there is no time to wait for the five to ten minute reactivation process. When not activated, the fabric serves as effective insulation to keep the wearer warm.

According to Silver Eagle Outfitters Cofounder, Nancy Keen, the neck Shade is constructed to offer year-round comfort and safety while enduring the rigors of the industrial workplace, but it is also recognized for its use in recreation. "One of our dealers who works with construction companies and road crews specified a need for our Neck Shade, so we designed it with those customers in mind. However, we have found that they are popular among those who appreciate the added comfort while sitting at ball games or when enjoying other outdoor activities."

Designed to completely cover the ears and neck without hindering the wearer's movement or peripheral vision, the Neck Shade is constructed using durable, breathable outer shell fabrics, which include the wearer's choice of high-visibility fluorescent yellow polyester or desert camo patterned Taslan, and a durable water repellant-coated liner to keep the wearer dry. The shade measures eleven inches long, while its bottom width of 21 inches tapers at the top to allow the Neck Shade to easily attach to the suspension system of a standard hardhat or to a ball cap. Cutouts for the wearer's shoulders permit it to comfortably wrap around the neck and ears for more complete cooling comfort and shade.

"Like all of our garments in our industrial line, we focused on durability and quality while keeping the price affordable," said Keen. cThere are similar items out there, but ours is designed to offer lightweight, effective, all-season relief from the elements."

The Silver Eagle Cooling Neck Shade is available for $32.00. Silver Eagle hardhat liners, vests, and other headwear can be purchased direct from www.silvereagleoutfitters.com, through licensed distributors, or by calling 888-672-6963.

About Silver Eagle Outfitters
Silver Eagle Outfitters is the leading manufacturer of cooling garments using a specially constructed, three-layer fabric composite. Activated in minutes by tap water, moisture is held tightly in special fibers inside the apparel and efficiently released through evaporation to produce a gentle cooling over an extended time period, while a water-resistant inner lining pulls heat away from the body and wicks moisture away from the skin, keeping the wearer cool and dry. This evaporative technology cools the wearer for two to eight hours, depending on the climate and environmental conditions. Fully activated, Silver Eagle apparel remains lightweight and breathable, allowing the wearer full range of motion and consistent comfort. Worn dry, the garments provide an effective ultra-light barrier to the cold and wind.
