These are wool-blend socks with built-in heating panels on the sole, powered by rechargeable 5-volt batteries that sit in a pocket at the top of the sock. ActionHeat rates them to a maximum of 150F and up to 5 hours of heat, with a touch-button on the sock that cycles through the heat settings. They suit skiers, hunters, anglers and anyone who works outside in winter, and they run hotter than most heated socks, which is the main draw and the main caution. Buyers rate them highly, though the batteries add bulk and the heat tapers off well before the stated maximum run time on the top setting.

Owners rate these socks 4.7 out of 5 across 141 ratings and mostly praise how warm they get and how well the wool blend holds heat. Complaints center on battery bulk and shorter-than-expected run time on the top setting.
These battery-heated wool-blend socks have built-in heating panels on the sole of the foot. The panels use ultra-fine carbon fiber to produce heat. The fabric traps heat, and the socks use far infrared heating with heat-reflective technology.
To use them, charge the two 5V batteries and plug them into the USB cords in the pocket on the top of each sock. Press and hold the touch button for 3 seconds to turn the socks on. Press it again to cycle through the 3 heat settings.
Low or medium settings are recommended. Heat Blast should not be used for more than 5 minutes at a time. The socks get hot, so follow the instructions and use them carefully.
