After almost 12 years with the same maltese collar, it was time to refurb. the outer shell had stretched out and velcro was shot. 

I bought a fabric cooling towel and my wife sewed up the neck collar and reattached to the clavicle and sternum protection.

Great job! I've got the same one from way back, loved it for ice but too hot for inline. I would love to start using it again as the dangler jams sometimes looking down. Thinking about trying to punch some ventilation holes in the gel...

Is this one of those towels that cools as it gets wet?

I actually wore this in a back to back ball hockey game in 98 degree weather. I put it in the freezer before the game and it kept me cool. I also dunked it in ice between periods.

 Good idea, how long in the freezer is safe?
