Boot Glove

[W8N2SKI]

I just bought a pair. I've never used them, but they weren't pricey and may be worth it the 2 or 3 days a year that I actually get cold. Has anyone here tried them out?

Live in mine....Think I'm on the third pair. But to put it bluntly....d@#n cold in Quebec!

I have a pair. I use them on super cold days--I think they keep my boots a couple degrees warmer. Any little bit helps though I guess.

Yep, definitely make a difference. Especially useful when I was up at Stowe a few years ago with temps in the single digits. I used them more before I got Intuition liners.

You reminded me I lost mine at Snowmass last season. Need to get new Boot Gloves.

I have a pair, too. They help, but what helps even more is my Hotronics boot heaters. I couldn't ski without them.

I have boot gloves that I have never worn. Used to get cold feet but with intuition liners not so anymore. Always used to ski with hotronics in my old cold Rossignol Course Lady boots but lost so many on old chairlifts. There was one at Heavenly that they would constantly get knocked off. That being said, I ski mostly in Tahoe and don't really need them but do go out of state/country pretty often. The Intuition liners have helped in so many ways.

I plan on picking up a pair before next season

You want my boot gloves if I can find them? Think they're at Tahoe house.

Awesome, thank you so much.

I use them on cold days. My Intuition liners keep my feet pretty warm, but the boot gloves probably add another 10 degrees. Thing is they only work if the shell starts out warm in the first place. I put them on when I put on my boots in the condo, then walk to the lift (about 10 minutes). Yet another argument for a heated boot bag, which I don't (yet) own. Because I walk 20 minutes in them every day, mine wear through pretty quickly.

I use boot dryers to warm boots for about a half hour before putting on, really helps and easy to travel with...

I also do this, and someone here also gave me the idea of shoving chemical warmers into the toes while they're activating. So I have the warmers and the dryers running in the morning. Lovely. I use chemical hand warmers pretty much through a high of 35 degrees ... in mittens ...

Brilliant idea for traveling internationally when one can fry their boot heaters if not using conversion properly.

Awesome, thank you so much.

They were a gift and I've never used them.

 

[tinymoose]

I have them and used them pre and post boot heaters... love 'em.

Bounceswoosh try putting duct tape on the tape that goes under your foot. You can replace duct tape easily. Dear DH's tip.

I tried that. Probably after it was too far split already. I'll try before it gets awful- thanks!

Right away....DH wore his everyday. He always had cold feet even with the boot heaters.
