    That 5 degrees Celsius sign actually said "minus 5C" (not -5C) so I assume it was saying it can lower the temperature by 5 degrees.

      Workwear can also be found in some home improvement stores. But the sizes only fit the average domestic population. A few is available in some “big size” shops.
      That said, the prices in this video look pretty inexpensive.

    I bought one of those fan jackets last year. I opted for the USB powered one just so it didn't have a propriety connection and battery type even though it is less powerful. It saved me in the summer heat that year and back in the states I've used it for probably 100 hours. Everything is working great on it.

    There are no standards for S-M-L etc. sizing, hasn't been after Vietnam war ages. Every brand can have their own ones. However, Asian sizing differs from the European sizing differs from the US sizing, so needing XL isn't strange for a medium sized guy.

    Workman is also another good store for this kind of stuff. They have a sub-brand called FieldCore that makes some blue-green corduroy pants with doubled pockets (theres normal pockets, then right behind it theres a deeper zippered pocket) on both sides. Some of if not my favorite pair of pants, and I have been to Kojima - the blue jeans city.
