the jacket what size do you normally wear and is that the same size or does it run small or big because I like to buy my father a jacket for hunting in the camo
VCG Construction I actually just talked to my Milwaukee rap and he's going to bring a few jackets in I like the three in one but the only problem they don't make the three-in-one in the camo and also i have to wear bright yellow with the reflective stripes when I'm working My Town job Sanitation summer go with the Milwaukee black jacket for 199 and then put my town jacket over that ask you what your my father wants but great video I couldn't wait for you to come out with this
@@josephmalinowski6817 i am a big guy...i can fit into 3X shirts & jackets but prefer 4X for extra room...the largest size milwaukee makes is 3X...i just bought this axis layering system in 3X and it fits me fine...its snug...not alot of room but its not too tight....its better for it to be snug so the heaters in the jacket are up against you...if the jacket is too loose you prob wont get the same heat transfer
Because of u I converted over from dewalt to Milwaukee. I have the impact driver and the drill combo with ONE-KEY™,the wet vac and now I’m about to buy the jacket. I am now a officially a Milwaukee fan
Bought the tough shell a couple weeks ago when Home Depot started carrying them, then found one of these today for a steal of a deal at our electrical supply house. Throw this under the tough shell and turn then both on high and I am one toasty warm electrician! Gonna be great for working on docks this winter!
@@zacharysherry2910 buy it kinda snug if you can, like don’t buy a size bigger than you would need. I bought a 2nd one of these because the first one I bought was an XL and it is great but a little loose. So I got a large and it feels like it heats a lot better because it’s more snug. The heated hoodie plus this jacket plus the outer shell works great though! Stay warm bud!
I have the Milwaukee jacket and it is really warm even without the power on. What I like the most about them is the heated handwarmer pockets. My son gave me mine for Christmas two years ago.
They also have a cord to adapt to the lighter / accessory outlet of your truck . Good for long winter trips .What I mostly use for layering is the vest . The outer shell looks interesting !
I believe that I like the vest better. Keep it closer to the body where it’s needed and then it will replace one layer and another layer when ignited. That’s the idea at least
Absolutely love this new jacket. I work on tug boats it gets Frigid cold in the winter time I’ll have on up to four jackets to stay warm and you can just peel them off layer by layer if you do get too hot and then I wear a pair of thermals underneath with longjohns or regular pants and then a pair of coveralls and I wear a pair of boots that can handle -19° the only problem with this is . is getting my wife to let me buy one LOL.But this would work amazing for me in my line of work because I would just keep the two jackets together you never know when you’re going to get soaking wet out here it happens a lot so being -20 and soaking wet is it fun
I live in Minnesota and everybody knows winters are very mild here LOL I only used the outer shell jacket all last year and stayed plenty warm but I will be getting the whole thing this year
Time to replace my Carhatt with some Milwaukee options. I like the way that you spoke about the handsome look. I need to step up my appearance game cause it does make a difference. I also gonna get some gridiron bib overalls. Thanks for the informational video, Vince!
You guys wing it a bit on your channel... but I gotta give you props.... you're fearless and get at it when it comes to delivering consistent content, which grows that audience. I just hit the bell.
i just bought this last week....i got the rain shell option as the layer...its awesome 👍 the grid iron shell option is $299....the rain shell option is $269
I used to not be sold on heated jackets and heated outerwear until I tried mine. Everyone laughed when I bought my jacket last year. Driving from store to store just to clear snow from Satellite dishes or to an install when you are not outside long enough to get warmed up, the jacket kept me very warm. If you can afford it, it is well worth the investment. The only thing I wish mine had was a hood but for the deep discount I got it at, I will take the trade off.
My only gripes with the heated sweaters are they’re so short it pulls up to your shoulders when you bend over. And although the battery placement is good, the shape of the batteries is still annoying.
If you were to buy the work site later and then decide you wanted the rain shell layer, will you be able to use them both on the axis jacket? And also can you buy the different shells separate?
that is nice I wanted the Milwaukee heated jacket I just didn't know if I should go with the three in one heated jacket or the single zip-up heated jacket
I went with the heated sweatshirt. I love it. A little better price and I usually wear a jacket over it if it's too cold anyway working outside in Connecticut winters so it's perfect. Never once have I wished for more out of it. Also i bought my sweetheart 5 years ago and still works flawless and same batteries it came with. I hope this post helps
Hey vince if I was to get this same kit as this the axis layering system with the gridiron could I buy just the hydrobreak outter jacket separately?????
I know the hydro break shell can be purchased separately, but can the Gridiron shell be purchased separately if you already have the AXIS? I have looked and can't find one. Even on Milwaukee's site.
Do these not have the heated pockets? Not that i use it a lot but when i need it its so nice, not having that feature is a bummer, idk id have to test it but i think id rather have that, than the sholders
PLEASE COMPARE this AXIS jacket with the TOUGHSHELL heated Jacket. If you are only buying one Milwaukee heated jacket, which one would you buy? The Axis or the Toughshell??? Thanks!
the gridiron shell is not 100% water proof...its just weather resistant...they have the rain shell option which is 100% waterproof...i got that one...the only issue is the axis jacket comes in black and the gridiron shell is black too...the rainshell only comes in grey so its mismatched
Personally I know where the button is right through the layers. It's like a little funny holding a finger on your chest for a few seconds lol no biggie
Smakey heated jacket the same quality and material like milwaukee heated jacket. The price is almost 50% of the milwaukee heated jacket. Smarkey heated jacket already include battery and charger inside the package. Need understand Milwaukee , Dewalt heated jacket didn't include battery and charger inside.
The old Milwaukee 3 in 1 heated jacket system, which is now discontinued, is better than the new Axis layering system. Wish I could find someone with the old style jackets still on hand or Milwaukee realizes that the old style was better and brings it back into production. The hood on the GridIron jacket for the Axis system is way to big, and in my opinion unusable, the hood on the old 3 in 1 system was more like a hoodie, which I prefer.
the axis combo kit only comes in 2 options...the gridiron & rainshell...just be aware the rainshell layer only comes in grey while the gridiron option is black to match the jacket
the jacket what size do you normally wear and is that the same size or does it run small or big because I like to buy my father a jacket for hunting in the camo
Use this size chart Joseph www.milwaukeetool.com/-/media/PDFs/Sizing-Charts/Milwaukee-Heated-Gear-Sizing-Guide-2018.pdf

Joseph Malinowski Vince literally said it’s true to size. Skips video, goes straight to asking questions in comments lol
Because of u I converted over from dewalt to Milwaukee. I have the impact driver and the drill combo with ONE-KEY™,the wet vac and now I’m about to buy the jacket. I am now a officially a Milwaukee fan
Which DeWalt tools do you still use in your lineup?
VCG Construction it’s very old “brushed “ I really don’t know
Roy Crowe I’m so proud of you for converting.
Lol. The new DeWalt XR (20 volt) stuff impresses me but I buy Milwaukee because it goes with the batteries I own.

Throw this under the tough shell and turn then both on high and I am one toasty warm electrician! Gonna be great for working on docks this winter!
Electrician in extreme weather Colorado here. Definitely will get one of these and I already have the heated hoodie to throw in the mix hehe.

Got my heated dewalt last year, couldn't be happier perfect solution when your getting in and out of the truck during snow storms
Putting the two together is just like motorcycle jackets.I just got the Milwaukee heated hoodie and I love it.
They also have a cord to adapt to the lighter / accessory outlet of your truck . Good for long winter trips .What I mostly use for layering is the vest . The outer shell looks interesting !
during the holidays were all an extra large
🤣🤣👍🏻
Nice concept yet would want the outer shell to be waterproof and to offer some sort of stay dry lining in the jacket component.

Great video Vince! I was looking for a review on this before spending the money and you Answered all my questions in this video!
Great video Vince, very informative and that is a great looking jacket system. Thanks for all you do your videos rock.
Just a heated sweater and your choice of weather resistant coat seams like best choice.
Shout out from California with one question. “What’s a jacket”?
🤣🤣
We hate you TAC Systems... we love you... but from Ohio... We hate you. ;)
🤣🤣
Wish i could say that lol here in PA. Although its nice being able to ride a snowmobile
LMNO
Thanks for demonstrating how to combine the coats. I got the kit and there was no instructions for it.
Take a shot every time he says jacket , i would’ve just passed out 😵
Milwaukee needs to make the heated jackets line in high visibility! Two birds one stone.
I just picked up the heated hoodie because of your video- now I’m going to buy the jacket- thanks for the great video
Excellent video ! The Jacket is great. Of course, I do not work outdoors, but I appreciate good stuff!
Thanks Ma!! ❤️❤️
I live in Minnesota and everybody knows winters are very mild here LOL I only used the outer shell jacket all last year and stayed plenty warm but I will be getting the whole thing this year
Ordered the wrong thing? Come on vinny? The mr. milwaukee clause is delivering theese to all the big shots this week.
Yea buddy. Thanks for the review, I was about to buy this so you helped a lot
Does that mean you didn't get it?
I want one ,and now more since winter is coming!!!
Thanks my man. I hope all is well.
Thanks Richard!!
very thorough. Just bought one of the heated tough shell. Although now im thinking I should return that and get this.
I say this on every Milwaukee video please bring the product to uk 🇬🇧
I don’t have a kid but I feel like I just became a dad from watching all these tool videos..
Time to replace my Carhatt with some Milwaukee options. I like the way that you spoke about the handsome look. I need to step up my appearance game cause it does make a difference. I also gonna get some gridiron bib overalls. Thanks for the informational video, Vince!
Thanks Mel we appreciate it!!
@VCG Construction just picked up the dewalt 12 extreme combo kit for 149 and I got the last one on the shelf
Sweet, let us know how you like it!
Excellent review, im looking to purchase one of these
Thanks RJ
You guys wing it a bit on your channel... but I gotta give you props.... you're fearless and get at it when it comes to delivering consistent content, which grows that audience. I just hit the bell.
that is a great jacket i really wanted one last year and ended up making my own lol
ADD Workshop that's awesome how you make ur own? I would like to make my own also
Tony Rodriguez check out my channel there’s a video
Lol yeah we need more info for sure
If you were doing snowblowing/shovelling, which would you choose? Hydro or Grid
I may have to invest in one of those. I hate being cold. 👍
Check it out Gear!
i just bought this last week....i got the rain shell option as the layer...its awesome 👍 the grid iron shell option is $299....the rain shell option is $269
Vince what side is that jacket if it's the correct size I'll buy the jacket from you and then you can just get the other rain jacket
How do you adjust the heat once its layered together can you see the Hi/Med/Low with them joined together?
If the heater controls are one the inside jacket, how do you operate the switch while they're zipped together?
U can get a can of spray in a hunting shop that sales waterproofing that u can put on them
Vin man you crack me up , great review 👍👌
Nice jacket Vince!
Last winter in big bear cali I didnt even turn on the heat. The jacket kept me toasty. I didnt like the gen 1 cuffs tho
Sorry if I missed it but can you adjust the heat from the outer shell?
Nice jacket !!!!!
Great video Vince
Thanks Antonio!!
I love this guy he is so cool
I habe been a tad put off by the m12 jackets. But i really like this one and may pull the trigger
What’s up Vince my name is Fee. Why yes I do want all of those attributes in My heated winter gear. *eyes peeled*
🤣🤣
Thanks this help me out.

I got the XL hope it’s the right size
What about durability? Crawling under mobile homes over old wood and other debris to repair water and drainage lines really beats up my work jackets.
Gotta get one just for walk around in MN
They should make one with sleeves that warm up too
Yo do they beat the shit out of the box.i just got one today and it looked like it was dropped off a building
My only gripes with the heated sweaters are they’re so short it pulls up to your shoulders when you bend over. And although the battery placement is good, the shape of the batteries is still annoying.
I need one of these.
If you were to buy the work site later and then decide you wanted the rain shell layer, will you be able to use them both on the axis jacket? And also can you buy the different shells separate?
Should have listened 1st one was too small cost me 42$ to ship back to buy the size up. Also, looks like the gridiron may have been discontinued?
You look between 5’6”-5’8” that large looks like its sailing on you! I’d go with the medium
that is nice I wanted the Milwaukee heated jacket I just didn't know if I should go with the three in one heated jacket or the single zip-up heated jacket
I went with the heated sweatshirt. I love it. A little better price and I usually wear a jacket over it if it's too cold anyway working outside in Connecticut winters so it's perfect. Never once have I wished for more out of it. Also i bought my sweetheart 5 years ago and still works flawless and same batteries it came with. I hope this post helps
Also I will be upgrading to this charger adapter pack cuz that usb feature is perfect for warm seasons to still use it
Do you still like it?
Imma put a 6.0 in my jacket
Question how does this one compare to the older heated jacket combo?? I have the older version
Hey vince if I was to get this same kit as this the axis layering system with the gridiron could I buy just the hydrobreak outter jacket separately?????
Yes, you should be able to get the outer layer separately
VCG, is the hood detachable? Great review on the jackets, keep them coming.
I know the hydro break shell can be purchased separately, but can the Gridiron shell be purchased separately if you already have the AXIS? I have looked and can't find one. Even on Milwaukee's site.
Do these not have the heated pockets? Not that i use it a lot but when i need it its so nice, not having that feature is a bummer, idk id have to test it but i think id rather have that, than the sholders
Where can I get one let me know great video once again
Meet with the mr. ??? After work. Or the misses. Lol
How durable is it. I’m a laborer and in the sh*t a lot, rubbing against abrasive stuff etc.
PLEASE COMPARE this AXIS jacket with the TOUGHSHELL heated Jacket. If you are only buying one Milwaukee heated jacket, which one would you buy? The Axis or the Toughshell???
Thanks!
Axis
That’s a nice jacket! Do they have it in women’s?
Yes they have womens
How to access the control buttons when its covered up?
Is there a link to that exact jacket and gridiorn shell? I can find it
Hey Vince, I love your vids. Have you done anything on Milwaukee electric ratchets? TIA
I wish they will invent one that will cool you electronically
I believe Makita sells a cooling jacket!!
VCG Construction yea but is just a fan integrated to a jacket, if it’s 98f it will only blow all the heat in 👎🏻
I'm not sold on the $100 shell. :(
the gridiron shell is not 100% water proof...its just weather resistant...they have the rain shell option which is 100% waterproof...i got that one...the only issue is the axis jacket comes in black and the gridiron shell is black too...the rainshell only comes in grey so its mismatched
Awesome review. 1question, if im 6' tall and 42 chest and 42 waist do you think a medium size would work for me?
Go on Milwaukee tool website and use the size chart. You want it to fit correctly
How does it feel with a tool belt on?
Are they gonna make it FR to ?
Hopefully gen 2 is better than gen 1 because the gen 1 was garbage I brought it back 3 days later
How would you turn the heat on/ off with the extra layer on? Is the top layer thin enough to feel the buttons? I have a feeling I missed this part.
Personally I know where the button is right through the layers. It's like a little funny holding a finger on your chest for a few seconds lol no biggie
Are these available in HI- Vis colors???
Scotchgard the jacket
Smakey heated jacket the same quality and material like milwaukee heated jacket. The price is almost 50% of the milwaukee heated jacket.
Smarkey heated jacket already include battery and charger inside the package.
Need understand Milwaukee , Dewalt heated jacket didn't include battery and charger inside.
Cool 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✌✌✌✌✌✌
hey, is that battery pocket big enough for my M18 5amp?
No
@@VCGConstruction that's a shame, as it's be a great jacket with a proper sized battery...
But is it brushless?
🤣🤣
Vince go to Sears website 70 percent off tools some decent buys

Can you link a the waterproof option
the axis combo kit only comes in 2 options...the gridiron & rainshell...just be aware the rainshell layer only comes in grey while the gridiron option is black to match the jacket
I'm an xl at 6 ft 130lb
Vince where can i get that axis grid iron jacket for the best price i looked @ acme no 3 in 1s so far ive found for $299 any advice?
Found it apparently i don't know how to use a website it was on the acme website the whole time
i bought the rainshell combo kit from acme...its $269 but since i need 3X my jacket was $279 with free shipping
Wish they made socks
👍👌
I like to party!
Too bad they cost so much. How can a jacket cost more than a "nice" jacket.
Check out the price of the heated gloves 😦 $$$
So both jackets are included?
Yes
yes...you can choose between the gridiron & rainshell options but there is a $30 difference between the 2...rain shell is $30 cheaper
