Amazon shoppers who are plagued by perpetually cold feet may have stumbled upon a solution. The Heat Company’s ‘Insole Foot Warmers’ are available in packs of five, ten, or thirty pairs and promise eight hours of immediate warmth.
The price has been slashed from £14.99 to £10.97 for five pairs. These insole foot warmers come in various sizes: small (shoe size 3-5), medium (shoe size 5.5-7), large (shoe size 7.5-9), and x-large (shoe size 9.5-11.5).
Since 1994, The Heat Company has been manufacturing these warmers, boasting that they are ultra-thin, fit all shoe sizes, and are a breeze to usesimply open the package, and they activate with air, heating up within minutes.
The company stated: “Ideal for all outdoor activities, whether sports, walking or in the stadium.” The warmers have amassed over 7,000 positive reviews on Amazon, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Declan Quinn said: “So easy to use just slide in shoes or slippers leave them for three minutes and they are so warm and keeps your feet warm for hours well worth buying them I know I will be ordering again from here.”
Another satisfied Amazon customer remarked: “Purchased for my husband who has constant cold feet and these have been the magic answer. He struggles terribly in the colder weather and since purchasing these heated insoles for him it has made his life so much more comfortable.
“They do retain their heat for eight hours which works perfectly when outside. He does put a thin insole on the top of the heated insole as he feels he slides a little if walking directly on them, this does not compromise the heat projected through to the foot.
“Bit expensive and they are a worn once insole.”
Not just restricted to those seeking warmth at home, one content cyclist added: “I got these to try and solve an issue with cold feet when cycling. I’m usually out for two-four hours and depending on the weather, either do or don’t wear insulated cycling boots.
“For temperatures between 0 and say 7 degrees I have tried these to absolutely brilliant effect.”
Nonetheless, there have been instances when some felt the heat was excessive; Barbara Steffensen shared: “Must say 99% of the time they were lovely and warm and lasted for a long time BUT there is a time when they felt reallllllly too hot and thank gawd I only had my slippers on at the time so could take them off.”
Meanwhile, Heather expressed her love for the product’s warmth: “I suffer really badly with chill blains in the winter months. A friend kindly purchased a pack of five for me as a gift. As these really did keep my feet lovely and warm on the coldest of days I subsequently ordered a pack of 10.
“They are thin enough to put in your shoes without making them too tight and, as they keep hot for eight hours, I put them in my slippers for the rest of the day. I did have to wear an extra pair of socks with the slippers as they felt a little too hot with just stocking feet but great. I would highly recommend them.”
