These Heated Gloves Will Really Keep Your Fingers Toasty (2024)

Durable, dependable, weatherproof, and heated: The North Face Montana Inferno gloves are truly the total package, and somehow do it all for less money than other premium brands.

In addition to being a great all-around winter glove with ample insulation and North Face's excellent eTip touchscreen technology, the Montana Inferno also packs our favorite heating system of the bunch with 8 hours of battery life and no-fuss USB recharging.

The Outdoor Research Prevail GTX is just what you'd expect from a premium outdoors brand that got its start making winter gear. These bad boys have everything you want in a technical ski glove including a GoreTex liner, rugged goat leather palms, and plenty of toasty EnduraLoft polyester insulation.

We love that the Prevail's battery packs enough juice for 8 full hours of warmth on its lowest setting, which means one fully charged set of batteries is all you need for a full day on the slopes. They'll cost you a bit more than most of the competition, but as is the case with most Outdoor Research products, there's no denying these gloves are built to last.

Specs:

If you're looking for a solid do-it-all winter glove, the Outdoor Research Sureshot is our favorite pick. The Sureshot isn't as heavily insulated or robust as a dedicated ski glove like the Prevail gloves above, but that's also what makes them great.

Because these gloves use more pliable 2-way stretch material and thinner 100g insulation, they deliver much better feel and dexterity for everyday tasks like driving, opening doors, and using your phone. They still retain a respectable degree of wind and waterproofing too, so they can handle part-time duty on the slopes when called upon.

Specs:

Seirus is arguably the first name in heated winter gloves, and their HeatTouch technology is the driving factor that makes their products stand out. See, where other heated gloves run a stretch of wire to deliver electric heat, Seirus uses a single flexible panel, which covers the entire back of the hand and even stretches over the fingertips.

The result is consistent heat and coverage throughout the glove, made that much sweeter thanks to Seirus' 240g of synthetic insulation. These gloves are also fully wind and waterproof, so they're ideal for everything from ski trips to shoveling snow out of the driveway.

Specs:

In seriously cold temperatures, a good pair of glove liners is a great way to boost the warmth and insulation of a pair of winter gloves. Heated glove liners like these from Day Wolf transform any of your current gloves into heated gloves, but they also work well on their own.

That's because Day Wolf gave these liners an exterior waterproofing treatment as well as touchscreen-friendly fingertips. As a glove liner, the heat on these is on the milder side though, so if you're looking for a standalone pair for cold weather, you'll probably want something more substantial.

We'll wager you're familiar with the HotHands brand: These folks have been making everyone's favorite chemical hand and boot warmers for decades, and we've all experienced the decadent warmth those little wonders deliver.

These gloves are made specifically for use with chemical hand warmers, and incorporate separate pockets into each glove for stashing one packet each. Their all-fleece construction is simple but cozy, and HotHands even worked conductive fibers into the mix, so these gloves are touchscreen friendly as well.

If you're shopping for heated gloves, we probably don't need to tell you that there are a shocking number of no-name products out there (most of them spelled in all capital letters) whose customer reviews and apparent quality don't seem to match.

That's why we select all of our products from (a) brands we know and use ourselves or (b) those with overwhelmingly positive customer feedback. Yes, there are cheaper gloves out there, but in our experience it's always worth spending a few extra dollars for dependable winter gear.
