Heated insoles

No matter how warm your body is sometimes the tips of your toes just won’t warm up. These heated insoles will keep your feet sung all day so you can stay out on the slopes for longer.

 

 

Invisible earphones

Based on a one-size-fits-all harness, and weighing in at just over 240 grams, the chest piece heater is designed to keep even the most intrepid of travellers nice and toasty right throughout the day; whether that means on the ice-cliffs of the upper Himalaya or the powdered pistes of Val Thorens. In fact, its even tempting to get one just to wear out and about in the UK, brrrrrrr!
