After trying a few different options, these are the gloves I really needed. Riding around at 30-40mph, I had to pull over to turn the heat down because it was getting too hot.
Dexterity and flexibility is great too, getting very close to the flexibility I have with summer gloves.

| Size | Middle finger length | Circumference |

Finding your size
It takes a minute, and you only measure once. Most women choose M. Most men choose L.
On the border between two sizes? Choose the smaller one. A glove with room in the fingers costs you feel at the levers and the switchgear. Go up a size only if you plan to wear a thin liner underneath.
Cold hands end rides. That is the whole problem.
Riders stop at petrol stations to sit on their hands. They put gloves on the radiator before they leave. They wear two pairs and still can't feel the brake lever by the time they get home. We built these around the three things that actually go wrong.
Five layers, one job. Weather barrier, windproof layer, insulation, heating elements, soft lining — stacked so the heat stays in and the wind chill stays out.
Polyester outer with a five-layer build. From the outside in:
Conductive fingertips and palm panels, so you can use your phone or GPS without taking a glove off.
Windproof, and splash resistant. They shrug off spray, road wet and a shower. In sustained heavy rain, water will eventually find a way in — we'd rather tell you that now than have you find out at 70 mph.
Between seasons. Store the gloves flat and dry with the batteries removed. See the Battery Information tab for how to store the batteries themselves.
| Battery | Capacity | Heating duration* | Charging time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular | 3,000 mAh, 7.4V | 2–8 hours | 3.5 hours |
| Strong | 3,800 mAh, 7.4V | 3–10 hours | 4 hours |
| Extreme | 5,000 mAh, 7.4V | 4–11 hours | 4.5 hours |
Choose the battery that fits your riding.
All three charge over USB-C. *Heating duration depends on your heat setting and the conditions. Running both heating zones uses more power, so the heat lasts a shorter time.
EN IEC 55014-1:2021 & EN IEC 55014-2:2021
To keep the batteries performing and extend their life, use them at least once every two months. Before storing them for a long stretch, charge them fully, then run them down to roughly 50–75%.
Riding through winter? A second set of batteries means you swap instead of stopping. Add a spare set.
I've run heated grips for three winters so I thought my cold hands were sorted. Turns out it was the backs of my fingers the whole time — grips can't do anything about those. First commute in these and I didn't pull over once to warm my hands up. Happy to be wrong.
"After trying a few different pairs these are the ones I actually needed. Out on a 28-degree morning at 30–40mph and I had to pull over to turn the heat down. What surprised me more is the flexibility — close to my summer gloves. I can still hit the turn signals without looking."
"My bike used to sit from November through March. Bought these in December and I've been out most days since, there and back on one charge. I've stopped checking the temperature before I leave. Three extra months of riding a year, and that's the whole reason I own the thing.."

Answers to the questions we get most
Between 2 and 11 hours depending on which battery you choose and what setting you ride on. Regular gives 2–8 hours, Strong 3–10, Extreme 4–11. Running both heating zones on high drains faster than one zone on low. All three charge over USB-C, and you can add a battery indicator so you're never guessing.
Finding your size
It takes a minute, and you only measure once.
Measure your dominant hand, or whichever is wider. Each order includes a left and a right, so one size covers the pair.
Most women take Medium. Most men take Large.
On the border between two sizes? Choose the smaller one. A glove with room in the fingers costs you feel at the levers and the switchgear, and you want the heating elements sitting against your skin. Size up only if you plan to wear a thin liner underneath.
Grips warm your palms. They can't do anything about the backs of your fingers, which is the part that goes numb first and the part the wind hits hardest. The heating elements here run across the back-of-hand joints, down all five fingers and into the fingertips. Plenty of riders run both.
Yes. Three settings between 45°C and 60°C mean you turn the heat up rather than adding bulk, so the glove stays close-fitting. Conductive fingertips and palm panels let you use your phone or GPS without pulling a glove off.
No — they're windproof and splash resistant. They handle spray, road wet and a shower fine. In sustained heavy rain, water will eventually get in. We'd rather tell you now than have you find out at 70mph.
Take the batteries out first, then hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent. Lay them flat to dry away from sun, radiators and heat guns — direct heat damages the wiring. For the batteries: use them at least once every two months, and before long storage charge them fully then run them down to 50–75%.

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.
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.
