Keeping your hands warm isn't just about comfort, it's essential for staying active and enjoying winter. Heated gloves have become a popular solution for anyone with cold hands, whether it's due to outdoor exposure or circulatory issues caused by diseases like Raynaud's Syndrome.
Let's take a look at some of the most common questions about heated gloves and how FIBREHEAT®'s innovative technology fits into the picture.
1. How do heated gloves work?
Traditional heated gloves use internal heating elements that are powered by rechargeable batteries. While effective, this setup comes with drawbacks: bulky battery packs, recharging hassles, limited runtime, and potential wiring failures.
FIBREHEAT® heated gloves don't require any external power. Our specialized fabric generates and retains heat from your body's own moisture and movement.
This means:
- No charging cables or battery packs
- No risk of running out of power in the middle of an activity
- Lighter, more flexible gloves
2. Are heated gloves safe?
Yes, FIBREHEAT® self-heating gloves are among the safest options available because they don't rely on electrical components. Instead of wires or batteries, they use heat-generating fabric technology, which means there's no risk of overheating or battery malfunctions.
Traditional battery-powered heated gloves are generally safe when designed and used correctly, but they do come with extra safety considerations:
- Avoid using gloves with damaged wires or exposed components.
- Don't submerge battery packs in water.
- Use only the manufacturer's recommended charger.
- Avoid falling asleep while wearing battery-powered gloves on high heat.
3. Can heated gloves be worn indoors?
Yes, heated gloves can absolutely be worn indoors. They can help maintain hand comfort and circulation in colder homes, offices, or warehouses. Many people use them indoors if they suffer from cold hands or poor circulation due to conditions like Raynaud's.
Battery-powered gloves may feel too warm indoors unless they have adjustable settings, and using them continuously can drain the battery unnecessarily. They can also be too bulky for common indoor activities. FIBREHEAT® is the better option for indoor heated gloves thanks to benefits like:
✅ Thin and flexible with touchscreen capability
✅ Lightweight design with no battery pack
✅ Moisture-wicking to keep hands feeling dry
✅ Continuous warmth - no need to re-charge

4. Can heated gloves be used for outdoor activities during cold weather?
Yes! Heated gloves are commonly used to keep hands comfortable during:
🏂 Winter sports (skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling)
🧊 Ice fishing and hiking
🧹 Outdoor chores like snow shoveling
🧍 Spectating at winter events
FIBREHEAT® gloves are the best option for long outdoor use because they provide consistent, reliable warmth for hours without worrying about battery drain. Because our technology is embedded in the fabric itself, it won’t stop working in extreme cold. Our soft gloves also wick away moisture so your hands stay dry and cozy no matter what winter activity you’re enjoying.
Pro tip: Try FIBREHEAT® self-heating glove liners inside the winter gloves you already own to maximize warmth!
5. How can I decide which heated gloves are right for me?
Choosing the right pair of heated gloves really comes down to how you plan to use them and how much convenience matters to you. Before you buy heated gloves, ask yourself a few questions:
- Do I want to deal with charging and batteries?
- Will I be outdoors? For how long?
- Do I prefer high-tech adjustability or simple, reliable warmth?
Typical battery-powered heated gloves offer maximum control over the temperature settings to adjust for your planned activity, but the battery packs add weight and can run out of power quicker than expected.
FIBREHEAT® gloves are ideal for daily wear, as well as long outings, since they rely on advanced self-heating fabric technology to generate warmth with no charging, no wires, no bulk. FIBREHEAT® delivers natural warmth that works wherever you go!
