Whether you’re an avid skier, finding yourself outside way more this winter because it’s the safest way to see your friends, or are perpetually shivering no matter what, chances are you suffer from having cold hands. The peskiest of problems. Mittens are useful chill-blocking layers, sure, but they aren’t usually warming themselves, and you can’t exactly tote around a space heater, much as you might wish to. If only there was some sort of miniature magical device that you could carry around in your pockets that would hold the heat of a hot stone and give your hands the heat of a fire pit (sans fire). Wouldn’t that be lovely?
Good news! Modern technology has heard your cries and answered you tenfold with some of the best hand warmers, ones that come in all sizes and shapes. Hand warmers that stay toasty for hours and most of which are electric and USB-rechargeable (a boon for the environment). To really get your money’s worth, some of them even function as flash lights and backup phone chargers, which is pretty freaking cool. Below, we’ve pulled together some of the best-selling hand warmers on the market. Buy two so you’ve got one for each hand, and you’re good to go.
