My hands go numb within minutes of being outside and it takes a good ten minutes of pain before they come back. These liners are the first thing I've worn that stops it happening in the first place rather than helping me recover afterwards.
Heated Fleece
- Winter-Ready Warmth
- Skip the layers
- Up to 16 hours of heat
I'm 5'4" and every heated thing I've owned has been a men's small, because that's what there was. This one actually fits. Mostly I run the pockets on their own — it's my hands that go first, the rest of me is fine. Battery lasts all day like that. Goes in the washing machine too, which none of my old ones did.
A women's fit, and it runs roomy. The figures below are your body measurements, not the garment's. There is around 20 cm of room built in, so a jumper goes underneath without needing the next size up. Take your usual size.
| Size | Bust | Waist | Hip | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 84–89 cm | 64–74 cm | 84–89 cm | 66 cm |
| M | 91–97 cm | 76–81 cm | 91–97 cm | 68 cm |
| L | 99–104 cm | 84–89 cm | 99–104 cm | 70 cm |
| XL | 107–112 cm | 91–97 cm | 107–112 cm | 72 cm |
| 2XL | 114–122 cm | 99–104 cm | 114–122 cm | 73 cm |
Bust, waist and hip are your own measurements. Length is the garment, measured down the back from the base of the collar.
Finding your size
- Bust. Wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part, under the arms, level across your back. Breathe normally — measure over the bra you would normally wear, not over a jumper. No tape measure? A piece of string works just as well — wrap it round, mark where it meets, then hold it against a ruler.
- Waist. Around your natural waist, roughly level with your belly button.
- Go with the bust. If your bust and waist point to different sizes, take the bust — the elastic hem takes up the difference at the bottom. This is the usual case rather than the exception.
No need to size up for layers. This one is cut roomy already. Sizing up on a heated garment works against you — the panels need to sit close to your base layer, and a fleece swimming on you holds the heat away from where you want it.
Warm hands without cooking the rest of you.
Most heated clothing gives you one switch: everything on, or everything off. But cold hands and a cold back are not the same problem, and they rarely turn up at the same time. Raking leaves on a mild afternoon, your hands are the only part of you that is suffering. That is what the second channel is for.
- Two buttons, three ways to wear it. Body only, pockets only, or all five zones together. Pockets alone sips power, so on a mild day you can run them for far longer than the full figure on the chart.
- Five zones where the cold actually lands. Upper back, front chest and both hand pockets. Warm your core and your body stops pulling heat back from your fingers to protect it — which is why thick gloves stop working after an hour and a warm chest does not.
- It is a fleece first. Ultra-soft outer over an inner fleece layer, a stand collar and an elastic hem. When the battery is flat it is still the fleece you would have reached for anyway — and it goes in the washing machine, which most heated clothing does not.
Three temperature modes
- High — red LED. 60°C (140°F). For warming up fast. Wear a layer underneath rather than next to bare skin, and drop to medium once you are warm.
- Medium — white LED. 52°C (125°F). For holding a temperature.
- Low — blue LED. 43°C (110°F). For a long day out, and where the battery lasts longest.
What is it made of?
- Ultra-soft fleece outer — the reason you will wear it on days you do not switch it on
- Inner fleece layer — holds the heat against you instead of letting it off the surface
- Five heating zones — upper back, front chest, and both hand pockets
Cut and finish
- Stand collar — closes the gap at the neck where a draught gets in first
- Full-length zip with a durable pull
- Elastic hem — stops cold air riding up when you bend or reach
- Heated hand pockets — warmth straight onto your hands, not through a glove
Yes, it goes in the machine
Most heated clothing is hand-wash only. This is not, which matters for something you will wear several days a week all winter.
- Take the battery out first and close the cable port. Never wash it with anything still in the pocket.
- Cool, gentle cycle. Zip it up first, and use a laundry bag if you have one.
- Air dry only. No tumble dryer. Lay it flat or hang it open, away from radiators and direct sun — direct heat damages the wiring.
- Don't dry clean, bleach or iron. Never iron over a heating zone.
Between seasons. Store it hung and dry with the battery out. Folding it hard along a heating zone shortens the life of the elements.
Standard 5V USB. Nothing proprietary.
The battery charges over Type-C and carries a USB output alongside the output that runs the fleece — so on a long day out it doubles as a power bank and gets your phone back off 3%. It has the usual protection circuits for over-charge, over-discharge, short circuit and overheating.
Choose the battery that fits your day.
| Battery | Capacity | Charging time |
|---|---|---|
| Regular | 3,000 mAh, 5V | 3.5 hours |
| Strong | 5,000 mAh, 5V | 4.5 hours |
Regular covers a school run, a dog walk or an afternoon out. Strong is for the days you leave in the dark and come home in the dark.
| Setting | Temperature | Runtime* |
|---|---|---|
| High | 60°C / 140°F | 3 hours |
| Medium | 52°C / 125°F | 5 hours |
| Low | 43°C / 110°F | 8 hours |
*On the Regular battery with all five zones running. Strong runs longer. Heating the hand pockets on their own draws far less power than the full five, so a mild day on the second channel alone will outlast every figure in this table.
- Battery indicator. Check what's left at any time. Select ‘with battery indicator’ in the drop-down menu.
Getting the most out of a charge
- Use the second channel. If it is only your hands that are cold, run the pockets alone and leave the body zones off. This is the single biggest thing you can do for runtime.
- Start high, then drop. Ten minutes on high to warm through, then low to hold it. Low runs nearly three times as long.
- Zip up. An open fleece loses the heat you just spent a battery making.

Flying with it
The battery comes out, and it travels in your hand luggage. Spare lithium batteries are not permitted in checked baggage on any airline — that is a worldwide rule, not an airline preference. Both options sit far below the 100 Wh limit that would require advance approval, so neither needs clearing with the airline. The fleece itself can go in either bag.
Battery care
To keep the battery performing and extend its life, use it at least once every two months. Before storing it for a long stretch, charge it fully, then run it down to roughly 50–75%.
Out all day? A second battery means you swap instead of stopping.

What customers actually say
Man does it do the job
"It's not the most flattering thing I own, but man does it do the job. It charged my phone on the touchline too, which I wasn't expecting. Only thing — I'd get the bigger battery from the start rather than upgrading later."
The heating stays off now
"I used to put the heating on at ten in the morning just for me, in one room, for one person. Now I put this on instead and it stays off till the kids get in. Sat at a desk it's the pockets and low, and that's it."
I thought it'd end up in the cupboard
"My husband bought it and I assumed it'd end up in the cupboard with the other well-meant presents. I've worn it nearly every day since November — school run, dog, standing about at football. It doesn't look like heated clothing, which is most of why."

I've run heated grips on my bike for three winters so I thought my cold hands were sorted. Turns out it was the backs of my fingers the whole time. First commute in these gloves and I didn't pull over once to warm up.
I walk two dogs every morning through the winter and I need my hands for treats, poo bags and the leads. Every warm glove I'd tried meant taking them off constantly. These are thin enough that I just leave them on the whole walk.
Rode 340 miles in a day through the mountains in October. Started on high, dropped to low once I warmed up, swapped the battery at lunch. Never had cold hands and never had to cut the day short.
I've always had cold feet and I'd been looking for heated socks for my winter photo sessions, but I was worried they'd be flimsy. They aren't. Ten outings in and the heat is still even across both.
My bike used to sit in the garage from November through March. Bought the gloves in December and I've been out most days since. Three extra months of riding a year, which is the whole reason I own the thing.
I bought the vest to stop paying to heat the whole house while I work from home. I heat my body now, not the room. The heating has barely come on this month.
What sold me is the heat across the knuckles and out to the fingertips. That's where the cold actually lands, and it's the exact spot every other glove I've owned ignores completely.
My fingers go white and numb in the cold and winter photography had basically stopped being possible. These liners let me feel the shutter and keep my hands warm at the same time. I'm out taking photos again.
Pulled over on the first ride to turn the heat down. Twenty-two years of riding and that has never once happened to me.
I keep mine on at my desk. My hands used to get cold in the house before they got cold outside. Thin enough to type in, which was the thing I didn't think I'd get.
45 minutes each way to work. Going in was never the problem because my hands were warm when I left. Coming home in the dark was. These are still putting out heat when I pull into the garage.
Bought these for my mother who is 84 and stopped going out in winter. She rang me to say she'd walked to the shop and back without stopping. That was the whole point.
I deliver five nights a week. Two pairs of gloves and chemical warmers, none of it worked past the first hour. These get me through a full shift on medium. Bought a second battery so I swap at my break instead of going home early.
The socks warm up within seconds of switching them on, and the heat covers the whole foot rather than just the toes. That was my complaint with the last pair I tried.
My wife got the first pair and I borrowed them once. Ordered my own the same night.
I wear the vest under my coat at my grandson's football matches. I used to leave at half time. I watched the whole match last Saturday for the first time in years.
I stopped riding in winter about six years ago because of my hands. Nothing else about the cold bothered me. Got these in November and I'm out at the weekends again. My only regret is the six years.
I've washed the socks after nearly every wear and they're still heating exactly the same. That was the thing I was most worried about before ordering.
Wind is the real enemy, not temperature. I've got no fairing on my bike so everything hits my hands square on. These hold up at 70 on the interstate, which no glove I've owned has managed.
It's slim enough to wear under a normal coat, which the last heated vest I bought absolutely was not. I don't look like I'm wearing anything unusual.
I'm 68 and my circulation isn't what it was. My fingertips would go numb inside ten minutes no matter what I wore. These are the first gloves that actually get heat to the ends of my fingers instead of just the palm.
Ordered on the Tuesday, wearing them on the Friday. Had a question about the battery indicator and got a proper answer from a person within a few hours. Rare enough to be worth mentioning.
Buy the spare batteries at the same time. Ten seconds to swap and you've doubled your day. Cheaper than cutting a trip short.
I put the socks on in the evening after a bath and adjust the setting as I need it. I bought them for outdoors and I use them indoors more.
I have a drawer full of winter gloves that all promised the same thing. Thick ones, waterproof ones, liners, the lot. This is the first pair that works, because it's putting heat in rather than trying to hold it.
The mittens keep my fingers together and warm, and I can still get into my bag and my pockets. Every convertible pair I tried before was so bulky I couldn't do either.
Three settings is the right number. Low is plenty above freezing and high is there when you need it. I can change it without taking my hand off the bar for long.
The battery packs sit flat and don't slide down or dig in as I walk. The pair I tried two winters ago had the battery right at the cuff and I could feel it the whole time.
Second winter on these and both gloves still heat the same. More than I can say for a cheap pair I bought off a marketplace that gave up on one side in January.
I bought the liners to wear under my own mitts and it works exactly as I hoped. When I take the outer off to do something I've still got heat on my hands.
I'm outside for work all year and I go through gear fast. These have lasted the whole season without the wiring giving up at the wrist, which is where every other pair has failed on me.
My husband bought me the vest for Christmas after I'd spent three winters complaining. I've barely had it off. He's now bought one for himself.
Four days through Montana in October, mornings in the twenties, riding eight until four most days. Never lost feeling in my hands once.
I'm outside at the school gates twice a day in a Canadian winter. The socks alone made more difference than the expensive boots I bought last year.
My hands used to ache for an hour after I came in. That deep ache that isn't really cold any more, it's just pain. That's gone, and I wasn't expecting the difference to carry on after I'd taken them off.
I was very sceptical ordering something I'd seen on Facebook. It arrived quickly, it's well made, and it does what the page said. Not something I can say about most things I've ordered that way.
Riding in winter had basically ended for me. My fingers would go white at every set of lights. These keep the fingertips warm enough that I can hold the bars normally the whole way.
Warm, well made, and I like them a lot. My only note is that I wish the batteries charged faster. A few hours is a long time if you forget to plug them in the night before. Easy enough once it's a habit.
Good gloves. The fingers run slightly long on me. I was right on the line between two sizes and went with the larger, and I should have sized down like the chart says. Still warm, just a bit of room at the tips.
I got these for my mum and ended up ordering a pair for myself a fortnight later. She's stopped saying no to going out.
Took a few outings to get used to. They're thicker than what I'm used to and the first day I was fumbling. By day three I'd stopped noticing. Warm the whole time, no complaints there.
One of mine arrived with a fault and a replacement was here in a few days without any argument. I'd have given five stars for the product anyway, but the way that was handled is why I'm writing this.
No complaints about the warmth at all. On the highest setting the battery goes faster than I expected, so I run it on medium and keep it there. Once I worked that out I stopped thinking about it.
These do help and I'm glad I bought them. I would say the heat is strongest across the back of the hand and slightly less at the very ends of my fingers, which is where I feel the cold most. Still an improvement on anything else I've tried.
Solid. It took me a couple of goes to learn the button presses without looking down. Once you've counted them a few times it's second nature, but the instructions could be clearer on that.
Warm and comfortable. I wear a large in everything and the large here is snug, so if you're between sizes I'd think carefully. Worth measuring properly rather than guessing like I did.
The warmth is genuinely there. I got caught in two hours of hard rain though and water did work its way in eventually. The page does say splash resistant rather than waterproof, so that's on me for hoping. Dried out fine and still heats evenly.
I'd have liked more runtime on the highest setting for a full day out. Medium gets me there comfortably. If you're outside all day in real cold, buy the second battery up front rather than finding out.
I think I ordered the wrong size. They go on fine but there's enough room that I'm not getting the close contact I expected. Returns were handled without a fuss and I'm waiting on the swap.
I ordered large and should have ordered medium. It's loose on me and I don't feel I'm getting much out of it as a result. The quality of the thing itself is clearly good, which is why I'm exchanging rather than returning.
