We LOVE these, they keep my pockets toasty when out doing barn chores when I can't wear the thermal gloves. The Kids love them; waiting for and on the bus all winter. Also great for chilly day hikes and horse rides.

These are something we always keep on hand during winter. They’re air-activated hand warmers that are easy to toss in your pockets, gloves, or boots when you’re heading outside. We typically get about 5 hours of solid heat, then they cool down a bit ...

These are our favourite! In -45 we wear them under our winter jacket hoods, and I love that I can pull them down easily as needed and they don't block my vision. Blizzard proven!

These are my husband’s favourite winter socks. They’re comfortable, warm, and the copper helps with odor, which is great for long days outside. They work well on their own down to around -15°C (5°F), and on colder days he’ll layer them with boot warm...
A solid everyday winter sock for men that works well with boots and layering. The copper helps with odour control, which makes a big difference during long days outside in the cold.

really like that you can put two pairs of boots on this at once, which is great for busy days or families. It dries quickly and just does its job without a lot of fuss. The only downside is that if your boots have mud or snow on them, it melts off an...

like this one because it’s portable, easy to store, and solves the problem of water and mud dripping down onto the unit. The hose design keeps things much cleaner compared to upright dryers. It dries well and does what it’s supposed to, especially fo...

These make a big difference once the snow gets deep. Instead of sinking with every step, you can actually move around properly, which is a game changer on the acreage. I really like that this is a full set, it comes with poles and a storage bag so ev...

If you’re a kid in our house, you’ve worn these. This is our top choice for bibbed snow pants/overalls (they keep the snow out), and you’ve probably owned them in multiple sizes as you grow. They’re warm down to around -20°C and hold up really well t...
