Heat packs – the most underrated heating accessory that is guaranteed to keep you warm this winter.
These useful little heat packs are the ideal way to keep warm on the go and maximise warmth. Simply shake and pop in pockets or gloves for a quick and portable source of heat – it really is as simple as that. However, they’re hugely understated and their versatility means they can be utilised for a range of activities. We’ve chosen a few of our favourites below for you.
- Football game
Standing in the crowd on a cold day, these are a life safer for popping in your pockets or gloves and keeping your fingers from falling off.
- Fishing
Sitting on the windy shore, wrapped up warm, these help to get a firm hold of your rod – rumour has it wearing heat pads brings you in an extra large cod for supper.
- Fireworks
It’s often really chilly when we chose to stand outside in awe of the lights, so give yourself some extra warmth.
- Walking the dog
When Scooby wants a run in the snow, you need to keep warm (and it’s not like you have a thick layer of fur).
- Snowboarding
Not much beats hitting the white stuff on the slopes, but it can be pretty cold so layer up.
- Romantic walks
When the snow is falling, there’s nothing more romantic than a walk, but why not hold your lovers hand with an extra bit of warmth and spice?
- Camping
Whether you’re sat around a campfire, or cosying in your sleeping bag for breakfast, heat packs help keep you extra warm.
- Gardening
Now is the perfect time to start planning how you want your garden to look this summer. Don’t be afraid to get out there now and get mucky.
Next time you’re doing one of the following activities, just think about picking up a little packet of warmth and you’ll have yourself thinking why you never encountered them before!
