I'm cold-natured and have Reynaud's, which is a condition that makes my hand and feet ice cold super easily (like when I'm not wearing house shoes in my 70* house). So, suffice it to say, it's really important for me to find ways to stay warm during cold hunts. I've tried a bunch of options (chemical hand warmers, microwavable butt pads, hot coffee in my thermos, etc.), and I just wanted to quickly share my two biggest difference-makers in case others are struggling with cutting hunts short due to cold: My electric hand warmers (this BoneView one and this OCOOPA one), and my electric heated vest (this Ororo one). The vest really makes a huge difference with keeping my core warm, and it lets me drop at least one bulky layer of clothing with no drop-off in warmth. The hand-warmers stay on low in my jacket pockets and let me wear lightweight gloves instead of mittens or the like.
These two items have really streamlined my cold weather gear list, so I figured I'd pass along these recommendations to you fine folks.
