KEY Apparel introduces Blaze, a five-piece heated outerwear collection with three heat settings, up to eight hours of run time per charge, and workwear-grade construction.

Fort Scott, KS, October 8, 2026 -- KEY Apparel has launched Blaze, a new heated outerwear collection built for cold weather, whether on the job or living life. The five-piece line runs on a shared rechargeable battery with three heat settings and up to eight hours of run time per charge. Job site managers, municipal crews, tailgaters, and anyone standing outside for a fall or winter game can all dial in the warmth they need.

Five Pieces, One Battery System

Blaze offers five diverse styles for staying warm on the job & beyond, from a heavy-duty duck jacket to a layering vest. Every piece shares the same rechargeable battery and heat control system, so workers can build the setup that fits their day.

Blaze Midweight Water Resistant Heated Duck Jacket

The workhorse. A duck shell with reinforced heavy-wear zones at the hem, shoulders, and inner arms, plus a removable hood with adjuster toggles and a stand collar.

Blaze Lightweight Diamond Quilted Heated Puffer Jacket

The mover. A low-bulk ripstop quilted shell for high-activity days when you need warmth without the bulk.

Blaze Midweight Two-Tone Heated Puffer Jacket

The all-day jacket. Articulated elbows for reaching and lifting, with a fleece-lined adjustable hood for when the wind picks up.

Blaze Midweight Two-Tone Heated Puffer Vest

The layering piece. Same chest and back heat zones as the jackets, with your arms free.

Blaze Heated Quarter Zip Sweatshirt

The workhorse for layering underneath. A duck shell with reinforced heavy-wear zones at the hem, shoulders, and inner arms, plus a removable hood with adjuster toggles and a stand collar.

Built to KEY's Workwear Standards

All five Blaze pieces share the same core specs: three heat settings, up to eight hours of run time per charge, machine washable with the battery removed, and water-resistant construction. Blaze is available in regular sizing, S through 4XL.
