Toasty Touch® Heated Gloves FAQ

Why Choose Thin Heated Gloves?

We created the original ultra thin heated gloves for people who are tired of wearing thick, bulky gloves made for outdoor sports when they just want to stay comfortable at home, the office, or the grocery store. Our gloves gently warm the wearer’s hands and fingers without depriving dexterity.

So, yes, Toasty Touch® gloves are Raynaud’s gloves, but they are also arthritis gloves, scleroderma gloves, anemia gloves, diabetes gloves. We are constantly learning new reasons why our customers are using and falling in love with Toasty Touch gloves. Everyone from postal workers, hikers, lab scientists, musicians and wildlife photographers to frozen foods warehouse workers love our gloves! Check out the reviews here.

How Toasty Touch® Heated Gloves Work

Toasty Touch® gloves are powered by rechargeable batteries and have tiny, threadlike wires that deliver soothing heat to your hands all the way to the fingertips. Simply charge the batteries, attach them to the short cords on the gloves’ inner wrists, zip up the battery pockets, and you’re good to go! Charging is easy – a red light on the charger means the batteries are charging, and a green light means they’re ready to go.

Easily adjust the temperature of your thin heated gloves to your desired warmth setting by pressing the button on the outer wrist – red is warmest, white is medium warmth, and blue is just a little warm. Toasty Touch® gloves warm the fingers and the back of your hand – everywhere but the palm. (Heating the palm, we figured out while creating the gloves, leads to sweaty palms.) And that’s about it!

How Long Toasty Touch® Heated Gloves Stay Warm

Our thin heated gloves offer lasting warmth based on the heat setting selected. On our lowest setting, our heated gloves will keep your hands warm for around six hours. Our medium level lasts three hours, and our warmest setting keeps you toasty for two hours. We recommend keeping an extra set of batteries handy in your purse or backpack so you can easily keep the warmth going for hours to come.

How to Find Your Heated Glove Size

We recommend measuring the circumference of your dominant hand, excluding your thumb, to find the perfect size heated glove for you. The right fit will give you the best dexterity and optimal warming all the way down to your fingertips. Check out our sizing guide to help determine the best size thin heated glove for you!

Can You Use a Phone or Touchscreen with Heated Gloves?

Absolutely! Every pair of Toasty Touch® gloves is made with three touchscreen-friendly fingertips (thumb, index and middle), so you can text, scroll, or snap photos without taking them off.

Can You Wear Toasty Touch® Gloves Outdoors?

Definitely! While they’re designed to be thin and flexible, they’re still great for cool outdoor temperatures. Many customers wear them for driving, walking, photography, or cycling. For skiing or sub-freezing temps, you can layer them under a heavier glove or mitten for extra warmth. They aren't recommended for high-impact sports like basketball or running because of the potential movement of the battery pack.

What Comes with Your Toasty Touch® Heated Gloves Order

You’ll receive one pair of thin heated gloves, made with premium, long-lasting, incredibly soft, non-pilling Lycra; one pair of 7.4V 2200 mAh lithium rechargeable batteries; one 100–240V dual-battery charger (U.S. or Australian/NZ depending on your shipping address); and one very engaging user manual, if we do say so ourselves.

How to Wash Toasty Touch® Heated Gloves Safely

Yes! Your Toasty Touch® gloves can be machine-washed and dried. Just remove the battery and zip up the pocket before washing or drying. Use a gentle cycle and low heat for best results. For small spots, you can also wipe the surface gently with a damp cloth between washes.
