There’s nothing better than staying warm while hunting and fishing
Winter 2025

The winter is full upon us, as are the hunting seasons. But, there’s also a segment of sportsmen who weather the cold temperatures to fish as well. Regardless of which you prefer, it’s likely you’ve found yourself caught off guard by a drop in air temperatures, or overtaken by a cold north wind.
There’s not much that can ruin a day of sport quicker than being uncomfortably cold. That makes it hard to sit still in a deer stand or stay excited about casting to one more brush pile when your hands or any other part of you is freezing.
Fortunately, the folks from HotHands have got your back – along with just about every other part of you. As they point out, they have the “on-the-go heat, you can’t beat!”
If you are like me, you first discovered their hand warmers that spawned the company name. Now they have added camo hand warmers for hunters in the Mossy Oak pattern. Other products are toe warmers, body warmers, neck warmers, glove warmers, insole toe warmers, Bigfoot warmers and lap warmers. Most of these last from 8 to 10 hours, but their Super Warmers can do the job for up to 18 hours. Obviously, there’s no reason to be cold while enjoying the outdoors in winter any longer.
The entire line of warmers are air-activated and ready to use right out of the packaging. Additionally, they are approved for air travel by the federal Transportation Security Agency.
HotHands products can be found at Walmart, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Sportsman’s Warehouse, Bass Pro Shops, Lowe’s and Home Depot. Online they are available from Amazon, Uline, Walmart and Warmers.com.
