I bought a pair of cheaper heated gloves two years ago when one of my heated grips failed. I believe they were around $75 on amazon. They worked pretty good and were/are very durable. They had 3 settings and on medium they would go for about 4 hours of ride time on average. On a full day & night ride, I was thankful for only having 1 grip that didn't work. It allowed me to switch the battery out to get a full 8 hours. If you're riding for a long day & night, you may want a spare set of batteries.

 

My local Costco had some heated gloves and they looked pretty heavy duty. I think they were about $80 or so. That's in Canada

 

No personal experience, but a friend swears by Gerbing.

 

I looked at the Gerbing online just now. They look nice but they heat the whole palm so you're wasting battery power on that. With heated grips I've never ever had my hands get cold, just the fingers. With the snowmobile specific gloves I believe they focus the heat more on the fingers only so you can get a full day out of the batteries, especially with a set of extra batteries. I'm trying the Fly heated gloves this year, not too bulky they fit nice and a friend has been using them for a couple seasons and really likes them. It always takes a while for my fingers to get cold as the blood seems to leave my fingers from poor circulation and your hands being as high or higher than your heart on these new sleds.
To me I won't turn them on till later in the ride when I start to feel the fingers get cold. Turn them on medium to get the fingers nice and toasty then down to low to save battery. Just my opinion.
Also I had the FXR Recon heated gloves a couple years ago and they were too big and bulky, the fingers were awkward and didn't feel like I could control things well.

 

First question. -- have you tried gauntlets? If you can get past the goofy look they are your absolute best option. You can ride with thin gloves on lower bar heat and be toasty warm with great dexterity on the controls.

If you are set on electric gloves you need to spend some $'s. Cheap is just going to break/fail. Electric snowmobile gloves specifically heat the back of hand, fingers to allow the bars to heat the palms.

I have had the FXR and Klim electric gloves and now I mostly use gauntlets in all weather conditions.

FXR - really thick and somewhat clumsy but warm. 3 temp modes. Need an extra battery to swap at lunch on super cold days. I had a failure with one glove in second year and to FXR's credit they had the store provide a full refund. Bought the Klim ones.

Klim - not as thick so better dexterity with controls. Not as warm though as FXR which is the trade off. 3 modes however pet peeve is that they will only stay on High for a certain time then they automatically switch to Medium.

BRP now has the Expedition Radiant gloves. They are smart gloves. They pair with your phone and automatically maintain a preset hand temp. Battery life should be much better as heat will come on and off depending on your hand temp. I just worry about that extra layer of tech and possible failures.

Good luck on the hunt.

Edit to say my hands froze yesterday even with Rox handguards! Following advice from some of you guys, a set of Rox muffs are on order!

My question is: Has the OP already tried a simple set of handguards like ROX? I was amazed at what a difference that made for my cold hands. I end up with the bar heaters on low or off most days after a couple of miles.

 

What ateick said---I use gauntlets with a pair of cheap brown jersey gloves. The hand warmers transfers the heat directly to your hands. I run them on LOW. I carry a pair of Ski Doo grip gloves if I take my gauntlets off.

Don~

 

Amazon gloves here too. I don't like gauntlets, and moving my hands in and out. I only use the heated gloves on the days in single digits and below.
My wife has circulation issues and the heated gloves were a game changer for her. She even quit using gauntlets after the gloves.

 

Depending on what kind of riding you do, I also think gauntlets would be nicer than heated gloves. A nice set of gauntlets, not the cheap floppy gauntlets. The kind that stay open and you can still see the buttons.

Otherwise go with a glove brand that's snowmobile specific at the very least.

I know a young guy who has cold hands often. He has heated gloves as his solution. But one day he forgot to charge them and it was the coldest day of the weekend of course so they didn't help him at all.

 

Volt has 12v , plug in and go , no problem with dead batteries. They work with battery packs also for everyday use .

 

My sons hands are always cold when he rides. Even with the heated grips. We got him these Fly Title heated guanlet gloves for Christmas. They have 3 settings and comes with everything you need to charge up. They get pretty warm.

 

I grabbed a pair of Telguua from amazon, pretty cheap -100 , my hands are pretty beat, some steel in there holding them together so anything below 35f and there cold! havn't had any real cold weather to try them out when really needed,but worn them dozen times just walking the dog to make sure they work and on med. i can really feel warmth coming through everywhere! just worried on high batts. might not last long! but plan is to just keep them on the sled and use them for stops when the grips aren't keeping me warm!

 

I've tried gauntlets, but didn't care for them. Now that I'm using Rox hand guards on my Catalyst, I may give the gauntlets another try. Previous attempt was without any type of hand guards and they made changing hand position more challenging, especially around the brake lever.

If all I needed heated gloves for was that, I think I'm set. However, I still need a pair of heated gloves for everything else - snow shoeing, snow blowing, ice fishing, you name it. So, that's the goal here - hopefully test out the gloves for all of my winter activities and learn something.

 

Not all riding is gauntletable lol but warm hands for snow blowing... Man that would be nice! Haha

 

Fxr here. Only use them when real cold. Battery life on high is only about 2 hrs. Very warm when on but I have gloves that are warmer and less bulky than the the Fxrs when they are not turned on. I like them though. Nice toward the end of the day heading back to camp.

 

Before you buy them-- if you do not tuck the glove into your coat sleeve, check to make sure the wrist sleeve of the glove will go over your coat sleeve. Most gloves have a small wrist opening that will NOT permit wearing them that way. I have a new set of FLY heated gloves that are not worn sledding due to me not checking for proper over the coat sleeve fit.
I use gauntlets with thinner gloves.

 

These look like mitts on the outside but have individual finger slots on the inside. And to @snappydave point, fit snug over the jacket…

 

One thing I don't understand is why the individual fingers on the inside? I like the freedom of not having the fingers and also that's why mitts are warm is because your fingers create warmth together.

 

I have issues with cold hands my whole life, now that I'm older it's worse. Poor circulation I suppose, my hands get cold and numb easily. For motorcycle riding I have Gerbings jacket liner and gloves. Best investment of cold hands I have made. Individual temp control for jacket liner and gloves, I can ride in almost any temp with these. I bought a pair of battery powered heated gloves for skiing and snow blowing, etc. They work well, but if you are using them all day you will need extra batteries. I got two extra sets of batteries and they actually have higher amp hours than the original ones that came with the gloves. I went with Savior mittens, but they have gloves also. They have 3 temp settings and work very well. Even with my poor circulation issue I typically only use the lowest setting. They are sturdy and have lasted two seasons so far. I haven't used them for snowmobiling yet but will try them once we get some snow before I buy more expensive option.

Good luck grabbing the brake with those mittens.

 

I sent my Fly's back. Appeared too thin.

That’s where the three finger “mitten” with the index finger solo work so well on the Klim.

I’m not sure, but they work.

 

Hey p51mstg,
I totally understand your struggle with keeping your hands warm during winter rides. I've been there too, and I’ve tried several gloves over the years — some cheap and some expensive. Personally, I found that while the high-end brands like Klim and FXR are great, they come with a hefty price tag. The cheaper alternatives, though, didn’t hold up well for long rides or extreme cold.
Last year, I came across a pair of heated gloves on Amazon, priced around $50, and to my surprise, they worked pretty well! They're not quite as durable as the big-name brands, but for casual use, they really did the trick, especially during short snowmobile rides.


Hope that helps, and I wish you warmer hands during your rides this season! Stay safe out there!

 

I just wanted to follow up after giving it a little more thought. One thing I’ve noticed with heated gloves, especially the more affordable ones, is that they tend to work really well in the short term but may not last as long as you'd hope in the harshest conditions. However, if you’re not planning on putting them through extremely rough use, the budget options can really be a solid choice. They might not have the rugged durability of the top-tier brands, but they do offer good warmth and comfort for everyday rides.
I also read about a few other models that people have had positive experiences with in forums like this, so it might be worth checking out user reviews to get a clearer picture of what works for different riders. The feedback from others can often tell you if a certain glove is good for your specific needs, whether it’s for colder rides or more casual trips.

9 Best Heated Gloves in 2025: Ultimate Guide & Expert Reviews
Good luck finding the right pair, and stay warm out there!

 

I am in the market again for another pair. The first pair I purchased was a cheap pair from Amazon. They ripped out in the palms after using them on and off during that season. The second pair of SAVIOR have held up well could be a little hotter in the high setting but overall, not bad for an Amazon purchase under $100.00. My FLY Ignitor gloves purchased last season have already sprung a leak in the palms and at $100.00 +. Looking to replace them ???

FLY One Season:

 

Bought a pair of the BRP Radiants and so far very impressed. Paid $199 at a local dealership. Have not been in real cold yet but was staying on an off grid camp last weekend and got almost 2 full days out of one charge albeit one day was not cold. I did lose pairing once or twice but took my hand out and put back in and they came right back on. You share some great stuff on your YouTube channel, this would be great content.

 

I'll have to look into those - my local Polaris dealer is also Ski Doo, and they sell a lot of BRP accessories, I'm sure they have those.

That dealer had a sale on the pre-Clim8 509 heated gloves last spring and I bought those. So far this season, not impressed. I like how comfortable they are, but my fingers are still getting cold.

Last spring I looked at the Klim heated gloves, but they were stiffer than the 509's and at least $100 more. What was interesting about the Klims was that the heating elements are on the sides of the fingers instead of the back of the hand, like the 509s. I wonder if they're warmer that way.

I sincerely appreciate the complement, that means a lot to me.

 

I'm gonna be in the market for some heated gloves, my 61yr arthritic claws would love em.

 

Im in the same boat, and needed new gloves this season. I bought the BRP Expedition radiant gloves and so far I like them a lot. I get about 6-7 hours from a charge on them and even when the battery dies they are still decent gloves. I'm not a techy guy and typically dont like "smart" products but setting the exact temp you want your gloves at on your phone is pretty nice, and the gloves turn on and off automatically when you put your hand in them or out of them. Pricey? absolutely, but frozen hands not only take the fun out of riding, they are dangerous as well.

 

The thread title asks for OPINIONS...Heres mine...Please turn in your MAN CARD and remove yourself from the sport if you need/use heated gloves...Jeeeez...

 

Come on now, many older guys like me who have earned a living with their hands and still ride will appreciate these products to keep them on the trail.
Don't know how old you are, but that's not a cool comment.
