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.

The Swamp Cooler Zip™ is a lightweight, streamlined solution for keeping dogs cool on hot-weather adventures. The snug-fitting vest with our Swamp Cooler™ Tech in the chest and belly panel uses moisture to help pull body surface heat away through evaporative cooling. The stretch fabric ensures a close fit for effective cooling and provides UPF 50+ sun protection. Just soak the vest in water, zip on your dog, and go.

How does Swamp Cooler™ Tech work? Learn more here about how that refreshing, just-stepped-out-of-a-lake feeling known as evaporative cooling helps keep your dog cool. Check out the Swamp Cooler™ Collection.

    Stays wet for a long time.

    Good purchase, fits well under the vest/harness, stays wet for a long time and allows us to be active in hotter temperatures.

    Works great

    Had my pup wear this for the first time on a bike ride and I went to check on him an hour or so after the ride and his chest was still nice and cool from the ride despite the hot weather. Excited to put this to the test some more this summer!
