Venture Heat has created a heated hoodie that's the first ever to be powered entirely through a USB connection.
The 'Evolve Heated Hoodie' features thin flexible heating panels on both the back and chest and is lined with plush fleece material. The outer layer of the zip up sweater is made from a thick polyester spandex blend, and is combined with a breathable mesh layer on the inside to help transfer heat and warm your body's core temperature. The hoodie also features a waterproof pocket to store a 2.1 amp or higher USB power bank.
Simply charge up the power bank and plug it into the hoodie with a USB connection for the added convenience of additional heating during the cold winter months. The hoodie is also machine washable and dryer safe, but make sure to remove the power bank before you decide to start cleaning it.
