Best For Skiing: PBOX Heated Socks for Men Women-5000mAh Rechargeable Battery Electric Heating Socks
Let’s talk heated socks.
There are two basic types of heated socks: battery-powered and super thick insulated socks without batteries.
The first type are heated with a lithium ion battery that can work from two to ten hours, depending on the brand.
For the best heated socks for skiing, we picked PBOX’s rechargeable battery socks. And yes, these socks are app-enabled . . . you can control the heat level via the app. This worked well in our testing.
Here’s more:
What We Liked
• Nice compression.
• Thick fabric.
• Very warm!
• Warms up in minutes.
• Battery lasted four and half hours in our tests (medium setting). It took about five hours to charge.
• Long enough for ski boots.
• Can adjust the temperature, turn on/off and more via app.
What Needs Work
• Must create a user id to use app.
• App has been buggy in past. We didn’t have an issue, but see some earlier user reports about this.
