Hello everyone, Im looking for any advice on what to purchase for severe raynauds. I’ve tried thermal ski gloves but they are too bulky! Ive also purchased a battery hand pouch which is great but not practical when driving and out and about, so I mainly use it at home. Anyone got any recommendations re hand warmers? Also any tips on how to keep my feet warm too!

Thank u 😊

there are some threads on here about ‘best heated gloves’ with some useful suggestions. For feet, Thermosoles do a remote-controlled heated insole, but they are based in Austria and won’t ship to UK since Brecht coz of the customs charges and paperwork. If you have friends or relatives in Europe who could buy and bring them to you you might be in luck.

Thank goodness for the heated steering wheel. I stock up on Hothands Hand Warmers, when on special in usually in Tesco. love them to keep in pockets, or to slip inside gloves. Come in packs of two and last most of the day.

No gloves work for me – there's no warmth in my fingers to keep in! I use HotRox hand warmers I(thehotrox.co.uk) in my pockets – they are expensive but so worth it. They charge in the usual way like a mobile, and keep hot for several hours. Fantastic, the only thing that works for me!

I have severe raynauds and use electric/ rechargeable heated hand warmers. I have about 4 on rotation a day. That said I don't drive often but when I do drive/ rent a car it's absolutely torture so can't help there specifically.

The saviour of my winter has come in the shape of THERMRUP heated battery powered insoles. Takes a bit of skill to tie the pack around your foot, but SO worth it. Also, I've thrown away all my cotton socks and only wear cashmere or wool socks. Absolutely a necessary investment when dealing with severe raynauds.
