FASHION & FUNCTION: The Leather LVAD vest is made with a lightweight leather that can be used year round. It was created to look fashionable and completely hide the LVAD. The leather LVAD Vest features battery pockets on the inside, located under the arms for comfort and balance. Battery pockets lock batteries in place with Velcro. There are 3 pockets on the inside in which to hide your HeartMate Controller. The side pockets lock shut with snaps leaving a lightweight cell phone pocket. The vest is intentionally long enough to hide your drive-line completely but carefully patterned for fashion and function. For HeartWare LVAD’s please purchase the “HeartWare controller Pack shown at the bottom of the page. Batteries will still fit nicely in the vest.
