Best heated ski gloves to keep your mitts warm this winter

You only need to have been skiing once to know that once you get cold hands on the slopes, it's all over.

Ensuring you’ve packed the proper kit that skiing requires is essential. This includes waterproof skiwear, thermals, ski socks and of course, ski gloves. Most ski gloves are made with ample insulation to keep the wearer’s hands toasty warm. However, for those who really feel the cold, the bonus addition of heating may do a better job.

As technology evolves, so does skiwear. Heated ski gloves are technical items of clothing that feature integrated warming systems. They are usually activated at the push of a button and can be charged up before chilly slope sojourns. Depending on the intensity of heating, from low to high, heated ski gloves can provide up to ten hours of warming insulation for those who are susceptible to the cold.

Heated liners are another stellar option for skiers who prefer not to feel restricted. These are thinner gloves that can be layered under a regular ski glove, meaning the chances of the cold gripping your hands are nil. 

It will come as little surprise that heated ski gloves don't come cheap. As with all skiwear and even the snow-based sport itself, the accessories tend to cost a small fortune. However, they are long-term investments for skiers of all levels and will help you get your money’s worth by helping you stay warm on the slopes for hours on end. 

Stay on the slopes longer and browse the best heated ski glove below.
