and at least one conduit receiving the incoming flow of gas from the manifold and directing the incoming flow of gas onto a wearer thereof, wherein the return blower draws a return flow of gas from the wearer, and wherein the at least one regenerative heat exchanger receives the return flow of gas to cool the incoming flow of gas. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one conduit is porous. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The system of claim 2, wherein the frame is covered with fabric. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The system of claim 3, wherein the fabric comprises a strip of mesh-like fabric. ### Claim 5 (depends on 3) The system of claim 3, wherein the frame comprises a 3-dimensional porous material having a generally flexible structure, and the fabric comprises a strip of mesh-like fabric. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one conduit comprises a frame. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The system of claim 6, wherein the frame comprises a stand-off material. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one conduit comprises a plurality of conduits, the plurality of conduits having at least one feed conduit and at least one return conduit in communication with the manifold. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The system of claim 8, wherein the at least one feed conduit and the at least one return conduit are combined within a single a counter-flow conduit. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one conduit comprises at least one multi-lumen conduit. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, wherein the at least one multi-lumen conduit comprises at least one feed conduit and at least one return conduit, the at least one feed conduit and the at least one return conduit in communication with the manifold. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The system of claim 11, wherein the at least one feed conduit and the at least one return conduit are arranged co-axially or adjacently. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one conduit is at least one of a panel-shaped conduit, a tube, a duct, a channel, and a 3-dimensional porous material. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one conduit comprises a tube wall having any of porosity, openings, and vents. ### Claim 15 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one regenerative heat exchanger is at least one cross-over heat exchanger. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, further comprising at least one nebulizer in communication with the at least one regenerative heat exchanger and the at least one conduit, the at least one nebulizer for evaporatively cooling the incoming flow of gas from the at least one regenerative heat exchanger before being directed onto the wearer. ### Claim 17 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, further comprising at least one thermoelectric device in communication with the at least one regenerative heat exchanger, the at least one thermo-electric device having a cold side and a hot side, wherein the incoming flow of gas from the manifold cooled by the at least one regenerative heat exchanger passes over the cold side of the at least one thermo-electric device before being directed onto the wearer. ### Claim 18 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the system is coupled to a garment. ### Claim 19 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the manifold is wearable around a waist of the wearer. ### Claim 20 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, further comprising a power source for powering the system, the power source housed within the manifold. ### Claim 21 (depends on 20) The system of claim 20, wherein the power source is at least one wearable battery pack. ### Claim 22 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, further comprising a controller for controlling the flow of gas through the system. ### Claim 23 A wearable body temperature controlling system comprising: a manifold comprising a feed blower, a return blower, and at least one regenerative heat exchanger, the feed blower drawing an incoming flow of air, the at least one regenerative heat exchanger cooling the incoming flow of air; and at least one member receiving the incoming flow of air from the manifold and directing the incoming flow of air onto a wearer thereof, wherein the return blower draws a return flow of air from the wearer, and wherein the at least one regenerative heat exchanger receives the return flow of air to cool the incoming flow of air.
