Heated gloves and socks - battery or USB

Does anyone have any experience, or recommendations for battery or USB chargeable gloves and socks.

I've been looking at some for my daughter as part of her Christmas presents. She has really poor circulation, and her hands and feet are always cold, and as she spends a fair bit of time outside with her job, she really suffers in winter.

I've only looked briefly on Amazon and they prices range from £15 (with poor reviews) for the gloves to almost £100, so I thought I'd see if anyone had any personal experience or recommendations .

Sorry to hear about your daughter. I do sympathise, as I have Raynauds in my hands and feet and they’re painful all year round.

I don’t have experience of heated gloves, sorry, but I am delighted with the two pairs of silver gloves I finally treated myself to this year from a specialist online company. Last winter I also bought the little rechargeable hand-held Hot Rox device (from Lakeland).

I hope you’ll find something to help your daughter.

Please may I be cheeky and ask where you got your silver gloves from Happiyogi?

You’re not cheeky at all, Blossoming!

I don’t have any connections with the company in question, other than having bought from them once recently. As I’m not sure of the GN protocol tho, I won’t do a direct link.
It is Raynauds Disease dot com. I hope that helps you!
