Heated Gear / Clothing
Heated Jackets, Vests, Hand Warmers, and Blankets
Heated gear covers more than coats. Pick by how you work in the cold. Hooded jackets, like the Milwaukee M12 Heated AXIS, DeWALT hooded heated jacket, and Bosch 12V Max jackets, suit outdoor crews standing in wind. Vests from Milwaukee, DeWALT, and Makita keep your core warm while your arms move freely. The Milwaukee M12 Realtree Xtra heated hand warmer fits a pocket, and the Makita Outdoor Adventure 18V LXT heated blanket works for tailgates, stands, and break rooms.
What to Look For
- Activity level. Vests suit active work and layering. Jackets keep arms and shoulders warm when you stand still.
- Layering. Heat works best close to the body, so wear heated gear under a shell in wet weather.
- Hands. A hand warmer helps between tasks without changing your gloves.
- Power. Each item runs on its brand's battery, so check the platform in the title.
Shop heated gear at The Tool Nut, a specialty tool store since 1994, with free shipping on most orders and rewards points on every purchase.
Heated Gear FAQ
Heated jacket or heated vest?
Choose a vest if you are moving, climbing, or wearing it under another coat. Choose a hooded jacket if you stand in wind and cold for long periods and want heat plus an outer layer.
Is heated gear useful off the job site?
Yes. The Realtree Xtra hand warmer and the Outdoor Adventure heated blanket suit hunting, sporting events, and camping, using the same batteries as your tools.
