Im pretty sureheated socksare the only reason I still have toes.
We tested heated items from socks to jackets, all with rechargeable or plug-in heating elements.
Ororo has a distinctive LED light in the front that we could do without.

It repelled water easily during our tests and kept moisture out of the interior.
We felt the heat strongest on our backs, with the next-warmest heat on our chests.
Wed love to see an option that doesn’t rely on Bluetooth.

This jacket is Bluetooth-enabled and comes with a branded app to control the options.
The jacket itself is fairly lightweight and not at all bulky, making it easy to layer if necessary.
The heating elements are generously spaced across the entire torso, allowing for widespread heat without drafty spots.
The battery pack is quite bulky.
The heating elements were efficient, and the highest setting almost got too hot in our shoes.
The battery life was significantly shorter than advertised.
This convenienthand warmerhas just one button to cycle through the heat prefs and to toggle on/off.
This shorter lifespan is something to keep in mind when heading out for a long day in the cold.
These are somewhat bulky and limit dexterity for some tasks.
These hard-wearing gloves were a lifesaver during our windy mountain-weathercamping trip.
The gloves are intuitive and come with easy-to-understand instructions.
The stitching started to unravel after a few months of use.
We do wish the heating elements had a longer battery life for longer hikes and excursions.
There isnt a ton of under-foot support.
These durable, cozyheated slippersfrom Amiable were our top pick out of all the slippers we tested.
They are easy to use and adjust the tweaks, and come with two sets of rechargeable batteries.
The only thing wed like to see is a little more stability for arch support.
Still, we will be packing these to every poorly heated hotel and rental this year.

The battery pack and pocket felt somewhat bulky for air travel.
Finally, we also appreciated the timer, which is safe to use for going to sleep.
We also wanted to know how the products held up over time.

Did the battery life degrade?
Did the material pill?
How was the overall construction of material quality?
For example, if the jacket elements just heated our testers torso, we wanted to know that.
If the battery pack in the socks felt bulky, we had them list their thoughts.
This will change depending on brand and model, but most have a 25-40 degree range.
Socks often have a higher range and can go up to 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
People without the need for extreme heat can get away with lower ranges and less charging time.
Lay them out flat to dry and never wring them out, as it can damage the heating elements.
But again, it depends on the brand.
This goes for socks and other heated accessories as well.
Medium or high heat will last three or four hours.
