What are Heated Jackets?
Heated jackets are jackets that are designed to provide warmth in cold weather. The jackets use battery-powered heating elements to generate heat, which can be controlled by the wearer to adjust the level of warmth. The purpose of a heated jacket is to keep the wearer warm in cold conditions, which can be especially important for outdoor activities such as skiing, snowboarding, hunting, and hiking. In addition to providing warmth, a heated jacket can also help improve circulation and prevent hypothermia. Heated jackets are available in a range of styles and can be used for a variety of activities, from sports and outdoor recreation to work and everyday use.

Heated jackets are also commonly worn by people with medical conditions that make them more sensitive to cold, such as Raynaud’s disease. In general, anyone who needs to keep warm in cold weather can benefit from wearing a heated jacket.
