My wife uses Zanier heated gloves to ski. She calls them a game changer.

This is her second set of Zaniers. The first set was replaced under warranty when one of the gloves stopped heating. She’s used the second set for a few years. No major problems with that pair.

When we were in Basin Sports at Killington, we talked with the owner about heated gloves. He’s rotated through five different manufacturers, since all of them have had some durability issues with either the batteries or the heating units. Flexing the wires in the gloves, either when skiing or some other outdoor activity, is apparently not good for their lifespan.

When they work, heated gloves are great. However, durability seems to be an issue. At $300-400 a pair, they’re not cheap.
