Press the EarthBae button at the tailgate, and within a minute your chest and upper back are warm.
That heat stays with you through the final whistle.
The easiest way to stay warm at a football game is to wear heat you control. EarthBae Heat and EarthBae Core each run three heating zones across the chest and upper back on one 7.4V battery, with three settings and up to ten hours on low. One charge covers the tailgate and the full game.
Heat or Core: Which Should You Wear to a Football Game?
Both pieces use engineered composite heating elements, the same three settings, and the same battery. The choice comes down to how you watch the game.
EarthBae Heat keeps your arms free for cheering, photos, and carrying food back to your row. The matte black vest has horizontal channel quilting and a high stand collar that blocks the wind at the top of the stadium, and it comes in a men's cut and a women's cut. It is the pick for day games and early-season nights.
EarthBae Core adds sleeves and a hood to the same heating zones. The heather grey heavyweight hoodie is the pick for night games and late-season cold.
Owning both covers the whole season, And because they share a battery, one spare backs up either piece.
How Is EarthBae Different From a Heated Stadium Blanket?
A heated blanket warms whatever it covers. EarthBae warms you and goes wherever you go.
- It stays on when you stand for a big third down, walk to the concession stand, or celebrate a touchdown.
- It clears security as clothing, while blankets are carried items that can be unrolled and searched and are often held to size limits.
- It leaves your hands free for your phone, your food, and your team.
- It looks like a well-made vest or hoodie, so it goes from the tailgate to the postgame dinner.
A blanket is still great for sharing across a row of kids. For heat you wear all game, choose EarthBae. See Heated Blanket Alternatives for the full comparison.
How Long Does the Battery Last at a Football Game?
Longer than the game. NFL games average about 3 hours and 12 minutes, and college games average about 3 hours and 24 minutes. EarthBae runs eight to ten hours on low, five to seven on medium, and three to four on high.
Run it on low at kickoff, move to medium after sunset, and switch to high for the fourth quarter. That plan fits within one charge. For an all-day tailgate, carry a spare EarthBae 7.4V Battery Pack.
Can You Wear EarthBae Into a Football Stadium?
Yes.
The battery sits in an internal pocket and unplugs quickly if security asks to see it. It is tested and certified to UN 38.3 and IEC 62133, the international transport and safety standards for lithium-ion batteries. Check your stadium's policy the week of the game, and read Are Heated Vests Safe? for more on the battery.
Can You Fly to an Away Game With EarthBae?
Yes. The battery is rated at 55.44 watt-hours, under the 100 watt-hour limit for flying without airline approval. Keep it in your carry-on. Our TSA guide has the details.
Can You Wash It After a Game?
Yes. Remove the battery, zip the pockets, and machine-wash on cold. The washing guide covers the rest.
