Up here in Maine where it occasionally gets cold, we use Ski-Doo or Arctic Cat clothing. If it is too cold to ride wearing your snowmobile suit, perhaps you shouldn't be outside.

 

I live in maryland and use a snowmobile suit gauntlet leather mittens and a baklava head sock made from thinsulate..its all good to about 25-30 degrees..except my fingers get cold after awhile...

 

Heated gear is great but sucks when you have it and you can't ride because there's 5 feet of snow on the ground. Last couple of winters have been so bad I only got to use the heated gear in the spring.

 

I agree with the Gerbing.. but I have an additional question. What jacket and pants do you wear over you heated gear?

 

I bought a Warm and Safe liner and gloves for my fiance last Christmas. She loves the liner but she can't find glove that fit. In February I exchanged the x-small that I bought her for a medium. She didn't like that fit either. I dropped the ball and didn't do anything with them until yesterday. I emailed them and asked if I could exchange them for a liner for myself and they said no problem.

I consider that excellent customer service and they have a good product. You might want to take a look at them if you look into heated gear.

 

Gerbings...hands down

 

Right here, shorts and a T-shirt here in South Florida! Tee Hee!

 

The only snow we get here is illegal!

 

Gerbing. Great stuff and excellent service.

The key to staying warm all over is the core. Start with either a heated jacket liner or a heated vest. Both will allow for the addition of pants, gloves and socks. If your core (chest and abs) are toasty the blood circulating to your extremities will be warmer. With a warm core you can get down to some pretty chilly temps with regular (non-heated) gloves and other regular gear (pants, boots, socks etc).

Hope this helps.

 

Just an update. The Warm and Safe liner came today, can't say enough good things about it. My girl has the dual wireless controller, ran both liners no problem. It's in the mid 40s here and the suns down, could have ridden all night. Set it to the midway point, plenty warm enough. There are ways to get a pretty good discount too if anyone is looking to buy from them
