Why heated ski gloves make a real difference
On the slopes or in the mountains, your hands are among the first victims of the cold, wind and humidity — waiting in line for the lifts, taking breaks at the summit, intense cold at high altitudes. Traditional gloves, even insulated ones, often end up letting heat escape, especially when you are immobile or have poor circulation. Heated gloves break this limitation: they provide active, constant warmth, maintain circulation, keep hands at a comfortable temperature, protect against frostbite, and prolong comfort even in extreme conditions.
The result: no more feeling cold, better dexterity, warm hands all day long — a real plus for performance, comfort and skiing enjoyment.
What Therm-ic technology actually delivers
- 360° even heat and temperature control — Therm-ic heated gloves distribute heat around the fingers and the top of the hand, with several adjustable intensity levels, ensuring even heat that is adapted to the context.
- Long battery life for full days — Thanks to lightweight and efficient lithium-ion batteries, battery life can reach 7.5 to 10 hours depending on the model, enough to cover a full day of skiing without recharging.
- Insulation + waterproofing + technical comfort — Beyond heating, the gloves combine thermal insulation (insulating materials), a waterproof/breathable membrane (snow and rainproof), an ergonomic cut and a reliable fit, ensuring comfort, durability and overall protection.
- Maintaining dexterity and practical safety — Non-slip or leather palms, precise fit, pre-shaped fingers: the gloves remain functional for handling poles, helmets and adjustments — without sacrificing warmth.
Who are these heated gloves for?
- Regular or intensive skiers — those who spend long days on the slopes, lifts, descents, breaks, and who need stable thermal comfort.
- Skiers who are sensitive to the cold — poor circulation, sensitive extremities, risk of frostbite or discomfort, or hands that get cold quickly.
- Alpine skiers, freeriders, ski tourers, and Nordic skiers — all disciplines combined, whenever cold, snow, wind, or weather conditions require maximum thermal comfort.
- Those looking to combine performance, comfort, and thermal comfort — to maintain precision and mobility without sacrificing warmth.
- For people who want high-end, durable and reliable equipment that is ready for difficult conditions — winter, altitude, snow, changing weather — while maintaining ergonomics and safety.
Expert advice & best practices
- Prepare your batteries before each outing — charge the batteries the day before, check that they are full to avoid any breakdowns while skiing.
- Adjust the heat according to intensity and weather conditions — use a moderate setting when climbing or exerting yourself, then adjust it when descending or on the chairlift to optimise comfort and battery life.
- Combine gloves + a good jacket + good protection — to ensure waterproofing, temperature maintenance and overall comfort (e.g. well-fitting cuffs, windproof jacket, overall insulation).
- Maintain gloves properly — avoid washing machines, tumble dryers or radiators: dry flat and follow the manufacturer's recommendations to preserve insulation, waterproofing and lifespan.
- Keep spare batteries/have a plan B — for long days out, keep spare charged batteries or bring spare gloves, as the heating system is dependent on energy.
FAQ (frequently asked questions)
Why heated gloves rather than classic, highly insulated ski gloves?
Because passive insulated gloves eventually let heat escape — especially when inactive (lifts, breaks) or when circulation is poor — whereas heated gloves actively generate heat, ensuring constant comfort, even when the body is not moving.
Is the battery sufficient for the whole day?
Yes — on Therm-ic's high-performance models, the advertised battery life varies from ~7.5 to 10 hours depending on the setting, which generally covers a full day of skiing. You can also find additional batteries in our shop if needed.
Does the heating affect the dexterity or fit of the glove?
No — the gloves are designed to remain thin and ergonomic, with non-slip palms and pre-shaped fingers, allowing you to maintain the dexterity needed to handle poles, helmets, or adjustments, while still providing warmth.
Can you ski for several days with the same heated gloves?
Yes — provided you take good care of the gloves and batteries, dry them properly, and charge the batteries after each day to maintain performance.
