When conditions take a turn for the worse, it's comforting to know that you have a pack of Little Hotties, adhesive toe warmers nearby to keep you your feet warm and comfortable. Little Hotties have traditionally been used by athletes, spectators, and construction workers, but their application also is ideally suited to the ultralight backpacker. With a compact, lightweight and durable construction, these toe warmers offer up to five (5) hours of convenient heat under ideal conditions. The built-in adhesive tape strip means that these warmers are designed to stay in place, even with rigorous movement. Plus, with all natural ingredients and overall simplicity of use, packing along a pair of Little Hotties means that you can leave the weight and fuss of other additional socks, batteries and fuels behind.

Limitations:

• Carrying more than three (3) packages at a time can rapidly increase the weight you carry. At a certain point, you will want to consider upgrading your gear, rather than carrying additional warmers.
• If you are prone to sweating, warmers can trigger increased perspiration, which can actually make you colder in the long run. If this affects you, use just enough insulation to ensure warmth, not overheating.
• Warmers do not perform as well as advertised in areas that lack oxygen (e.g. high altitude).
• Warmers do not decrease in weight after use and must be packed out of the backcountry.
• Warmers should not be applied directly to the skin, used in shoes during vigorous activities such as running, or used in extremely oxygen-rich environments.
• People with diabetes, frostbite, scars, open wounds, or circulatory problems should consult a physician before using the warmers.
• Some users claim that toe warmers are uncomfortable to wear, while others don't seem to mind. While overall comfort is a matter of personal preference, if you find your feet in a frigid state, some discomfort (due to their size in your shoe) may be a small price to pay for saving your toes.
