Heated ski gloves with 5000 mAh battery

Warm fingers on cold days

Fingers are usually the first thing to go numb. These padded gloves have heating wire running along each finger and the thumb and across the back of the hand, shown in the supplier's heat map. The battery sits in a zipped pocket in the cuff, and a button on the back of each glove switches the heat on.

With the heat off they are still thick, padded winter gloves with long cuffs that go over or under a jacket sleeve, an adjustable wrist strap and a drawcord at the cuff to keep snow out.

What they are good for

Skiing and snowboarding, winter walks, watching football from the stands, fishing, dog walks and outdoor work where you need warm hands for hours. They are bulky gloves, so fine finger work and phone screens are easier with our thinner heated finger gloves.

Not motorcycle gloves. These gloves are not certified as motorcycle protective gloves. For riding a motorbike use gloves made and tested for that. Our guide heated gloves for cycling, motorbikes and walking explains the difference.

Battery and charging

The gloves come with a rechargeable 5000 mAh battery set and a charging cable, as shown in the supplier's photos. Charge the batteries fully before you go out. Lithium batteries give less in hard frost, so keep the batteries warm and start on a low heat. The supplier does not give a battery time for these gloves.

Because they contain lithium batteries, the gloves travel on a carrier service that accepts batteries.

Size and care

One size, listed by the supplier as L. The supplier gives no hand measurements; if you have small hands they will feel roomy, which leaves space for a thin liner glove. The supplier gives no washing instructions. Take the batteries out and wipe the gloves clean with a damp cloth; do not soak them or put them in a washing machine.
