How long do the batteries last on each heat setting?

Kemimoto rates high mode at about 2.5 to 3 hours, medium at 3.7 to 4.2 hours and low at 5.5 to 6 hours. Cold weather and repeated preheating shorten those times.

Are these gloves actually waterproof?

They use a waterproof and windproof membrane under a sheepskin shell, so they handle rain and road spray. They are not designed for submersion.

Can I use my phone with them on?

Yes. The thumb and index finger are conductive and work with touchscreens, so you can use a phone or GPS without removing the gloves.

What comes in the box?

You get the pair of gloves and two 7.4V 3000mAh rechargeable batteries. The batteries charge over USB-C, so no separate adapter is needed.

How do I pick a size?

Measure around your dominant hand at the knuckles and match it to Kemimoto's size chart. The sheepskin shell runs snug at first and loosens slightly with use.

Are they warm enough without the heat on?

The sheepskin and windproof membrane keep hands warm in cool weather, but below freezing you will want the heat on, especially on long rides.

About the Kemimoto Waterproof Heated Winter Motorcycle Gloves

These are heated gloves for motorcycle riding and other cold-weather use. Composite silk heating elements run across the back of the hand and the palm. The gloves have three heat modes and an automatic preheating function, and you switch modes with a button. A battery level display shows how much power is left.

The batteries are certified by FCC and UL 2054. They charge through a Type-C port, so no extra adapter is needed.

The exterior is sheepskin, and LIMDRY technology provides waterproof and windproof protection. A PVC shell covers the knuckles. PU and ultra-fiber cloth add durability and grip. The thumbs and index fingers are made of conductive PU material, so the gloves work with touchscreens. They can be used for skiing, hunting, ice fishing, sledding and snow shoveling as well as riding.
