I’ve been self-employed as a trainer and riding instructor for 25 years and have used many saddle pads, including vented pads, mesh pads, and foam insert pads, in an effort to keep my horses comfortable, and dry, under the saddle. The Chillee Sweat Absorbing Saddle & Pad Protector™ is the first one that actually wicks the moisture away from the horse and keeps the saddle area dry.
I recently put the Sweat Absorbing Saddle & Pad Protector™ to the test by saddling one of my horses while soaking wet, after pulling her out of the rain. I worked the horse hard, for an hour and a half, in my indoor arena. Her entire body was still soaking wet, and now sweating, when I removed the saddle. To my amazement the only dry area on the horse was under the saddle.

”The Chillee Sweat Absorbing Saddle & Pad Protector™ is a well made product that works just like it is supposed to. It is thin enough to be used under your favorite regular saddle pad. This not only keeps the saddle clean, it also protects and keeps sweat off the pad, greatly extending the pad life. In the long run, I'm sure it pays for itself!"

"I first became aware of Chillee Gear™ products at a local air show in Elkhart, IN last year. I bought one of the cooling neckbands and thought it was great! It worked fantastic. As a matter of fact the city of Elkhart had a booth directly across from the Chillee Gear™ booth and the city was giving away a product that claimed to have the same properties. I got one of the free ones and wore it for a short while and it stopped working. I noticed that many of the people who had free neck collars were BUYING one from the Chillee Gear™ booth! That's when I decided to check them out. The products were not even close in function. The other product soon found its way to the trash can. I would recommend Chillee Gear™ products to anyone looking for some relief in hot weather. They really do work!"

"I am an independent contractor. I install, repair, and remove and replace, large machinery. On occasion it gets extremely hot. I have used Chillee Gear™ products during this time for about 2 years now. Sometimes I just wear the headband dry and within a half hour, not only does the sweat stay out of my eyes, but I actually felt better and became more comfortable. This is a great product. The quality is fantastic. It is far superior to other similar products I have tried.”

"I am a musician who works in all capacities from clubs to major concerts. I am a personal friend of Tony Stewart who is the president of Chillee Gear™. Tony has used me as a guinea pig for testing his products on several occasions, as the stage lights can get very hot. I have used several of his products and find them very useful. They actually work! I have to admit that I was a little skeptical at first but I live by them now. I have worn the shirt while performing and it is truly amazing. I love it! The lightweight nylon is really comfortable. It has made my job a lot easier. It just absorbs all my perspiration. WOW! I won't go on without Chillee Gear™ products now. I've been spoiled."

"I am an x-ray technician at a major hospital in Fort Wayne, IN. I became familiar with Chillee Gear™ at the Three Rivers Festival last summer. I purchased a neckband and wore it that day as it was extremely hot. The neckband worked great! It lasted a very long time and I was very happy with it. I was interested in what other products Chillee Gear™ offered and called the number on the brochure I received when I bought the neckband. To my surprise, Chillee Gear™ was just announcing a new product, the Fever Suit. I was interested in that because I had just been blessed with a baby grandson who we had just fought a tough fever with. Shortly after I purchased it, my 18 month old grandson became ill again and Oh my!, was I glad I had that suit. He had a temperature of 103.4. We immediately began to soak the suit and prepare to take him to the hospital. Once we applied the suit, his temperature dropped almost immediately. His temp was 99.1 within 20 minutes. My grandson was finally able to stop crying and get some relief. I will never be without this product when there are small children around, but I can see how this would work on adults also. It is a truly remarkable design and so easy to use. I showed the product to a doctor I work with and he was amazed. We are working with the administration to get this product in our hospital as we easily see 30 people per week with high fevers."

I first became acquainted with Tony Stewart some years back. He is my neighbor. He first told me of his company and product about 2 years ago. I was planning a trip to Africa at that time and asked him about the neckbands. I purchased one to try and Wow! I was amazed. It really worked great. When I took my family to Morocco that summer I also took a product that uses batteries and is made from plastic. I really wanted to compare the two. After the first day the plastic one was back in the suitcase and we all used the Chillee Gear™ product. Since then I have purchased most of his products, bandanas, headbands, and shirts. I have three young daughters and have a fever suit on hand at all times. That is truly a lifesaver. These should be in every household with children. After seeing how well it works I can understand fully how the adult suit would work. I am thoroughly convinced!"

"I belong to a Church Group which goes to Mexico each year and donates services to build a home for a chosen recipient. Of course, over the years we have had to deal with some extreme heat. Well, we have tried various brands of the neckbands and headbands and thought we would give these Chillee Gear™ products a try. Well, we have a crew of 30 to 40 volunteers and we wanted at least one for each volunteer. We generally did not expect much difference in performance, but I have to admit I was interested in this new design the owner spoke of. Well, I have to tell you his products are amazing! They worked great! Not only did they do what was promised, but as one of our female volunteers commented, "Finally, I don't feel like I am wearing a pack of sausages around my neck"! They didn't ooze slimy stuff like the others had in the past. They were easier to re-hydrate and lasted plenty long. Everyone felt they were great products. The bandanas you donated worked wonderfully too! Thank you, Tony, you have a great product and a great design too. Truly an advantage over the others we've tried. We will be talking again"

“I first became aware of Chille Gear™ products through a friend. I am a large man and often find it hot and difficult to stay cool in higher temperatures. I decided to try the shirt out. I was first impressed that the company offered a shirt in my size - 3X! Once I received it, I was thoroughly pleased with the quality and appearance, but I was not ready for what was about to happen. I soaked the shirt, per the instructions, on a very hot day. I was AMAZED!!! It was so cool and comfortable that within a half hour I was completely cooled down and didn’t even need it any more! I have sworn by it and used it ever since. It works great. I’ve had it for a year now and it is still doing the job! Thank you Chillee Gear™.

This product is amazing! I have had it now for about 10 weeks and it has helped me tremendously with my recovery. It helped with the swelling, the bloating and it stopped the itching and gave me support.

I keep my swelly belly band in the frig to keep it cool. I wear it most of the time but chilling it helps me even more. Kudos to the folks who figured this product out and offered it to Hyster Sisters!

Thank you, thank you. I can't say it enough! I only wished that they would have given me this support in the hospital to take home with me.
There is a great need for this and a very smart man who "thunk it". I encourage any woman out there to get one.
