Sidas Sock Sry V2 UNI S-700B, $270
Boot heaters can be cumbersome and don’t transfer easily from boot to boot. However, a pair of low-profile heated socks from Sidas offers the same warmth without the bulk and can easily be worn in your downhill boots, your touring boots, or those old rubber boots you use to walk to the dog on frigid mornings. Fitted with hidden heating elements, the Powersocks provide optimum heat distribution to the entire foot for up to 8 hours. The USB rechargeable batteries easily attach to the cuff and once removed, the socks can be machine washed at home. Pro tip: Flip them inside out before washing and don’t use any fabric softeners to make your socks last longer.
