Riding in cold weather doesn’t have to be uncomfortable, but it’s generally your fingers and toes which feel everything first. You can save your feet from freezing on, or even off your bike, with the new Keis S302 heated socks for winter motorcycling or keeping warm wherever you are.
Thick wooly socks are fine most of the time, but can’t do much if you’re travelling at speed. And they tend to be bulky and uncomfortable inside a pair of normal bike boots. So the thin, lightweight and breathable soft-shell Keis heated versions are designed to go over a normal pair of socks when you’re riding. Or keeping your toes warm in the pub without fighting to get near an open fire.
Each pair of the Keis S302 Heated Socks features Micro Alloy Element Technology which draws a modest 0.6Amps for instant warmth, and can be powered directly from your motorcycle battery, or from either a Keis Heated Jacket or Vest (all the necessary leads are included). Which means they don’t have to only be used for motorcycling, so you can be smug if you’re out and about in cold weather. And you don’t have to get cold feet as soon as you get off your bike, which is great for Winter motorcycle meets.
If you want to be able to switch the heated socks on and off, or change between low, medium and high settings, then you can invest in a Light Duty Power Controller, available separately. And despite the technology included, they’re fully machine washable, with a Lifetime Warranty for the heating elements. So there’s no excuse for stinky feet, even if you’re riding all Winter.
The new Keis S302 Heated Socks cost £85 and are available in Uk shoe sizes 4-10+ (EU 37-44+).
