Do Crotch Coolers work and are they worth the cost?

No, those won't work, you have to take them off right before you ride, and then put them back on when you arrive. Don't misunderstand me though, you are not to put anything else on for the ride.

When I first got my crotch cooler it was a very tight fit, I didn't think I would be able to get the seat back on. But I did, and now the crotch cooler has molded into place around all the contours and fits like a glove. It covers more area than the RJs or other brands and works better. I had a set of RJs and sold them and I'm glad I did. One good thing about the crotch cooler is on a cold day/night you can bend them up under your legs so you can get the warmth from the engine. I only do that on short rides when it was warm on the way there but it is cold on the way back. That is something you cannot do with the other brands. For long rides in the cold, like during winter, it is only a two or three minute task, start to finish, to take it off.

Cudos To The Captain!
CROTCH COOLERS WORK BIG TIME!
My crotch cooler has been the biggest bang for the buck item I have installed on my bike so far! No more roasted thighs sitting in traffic, at a light or anywhere. It's highly functional and looks good also. ALL of the Captains products are really high quality materials and are well made.
I have his crotch cooler, lever streamers and tank panel mount for my heat controller on my bike and everywhere I go I get the same question. Where can I get one!

get the best looking/working version of these
If you're concerned about the look and want fantastic function, IMHO nothing compares to the RJ Originals. He was the first and they look the best. I've never used the Cap Itch version but based on post here I assume they work. I just don't like the look of a flap hanging there like that. The RJ's look like they are a natural part of the bike and there's more to these than just a leather flap. http://www.rjsoriginals.com/ Don't beleive me take a look at the customer photo's on his site. I don't work for RJ but think he's outdone himself with this product. I've had mine since 2005 and they look and function as well as the day I purchased them. I also think they are made by vets in the good old USA.
