I've used toe warmers and they are helpful. I read somewhere here that hand warmers are half the price and a little larger so I bought some with the intention of using them for my toes. At the check-out I mentioned this and the sales clerk said that the hand warmers do not have the adhesive backing. I'm thinking I can still use these sandwiched between my inner and outer sock and that they would slide around too much - or that I could just apply a little strategic tape.

Anyone with experience using a hand warmer for the toes?

Yes, hand warmers shoved up into the toe of your boot will work....

BUT

The success of these chemical warmers depends on whether or not they can get sufficient air to work properly.

A number of years ago, I had used a gore tex sock, with the hand warmer inside of it. Never did work right. Removed the sock and feet were toasty warm. So now I wear the warmer

outside

of the gore tex sock. Sure I run the risk of getting the warmer wet, but at least my feet are dry.

The chemical warmers marketed for the feet

may

be designed to handle less air flow, as would be found inside of a boot and perhaps would work better. But the hand warmers I purchase seem to work fine.

In short, try to get more air space down there. If you wear 2 or more pairs of socks put the warmer inside the outter sock.

As to your original question

I never did have an issue with the lack of adhesive and the hand warmer stayed in place ok.

Can you put hand warmers in your shoes

After a summer of quarantine, many of us are embracing the great outdoors by exploring local trails and parks in our communities. However, with autumn upon us and winter right around the corner, we don’t want our fun to be ruined by numb and cold fingers and toes. This is where HotHands hand and toe warmers can come in handy (pun intended).

Hand and toe warmers need to be used correctly in order to be effective. Here are some tips for getting the most out of your warmers and information about how those warmers work in the first place.

Activating a Warmer

A HotHands hand or toe warmer come in a plastic wrapper with two warmers in each package. Once removed from the packaging, the warmer needs a quick shake in order to activate the ingredients in the pouch. If you want to “pause” the heating process, place the warmer in an airtight plastic bag, and you can use it later on in the day. Once shaken, the warmer should heat up in a few seconds. Unless paused, most hand warmers last 10+ hours, with toe warmers guaranteeing 8+ hours.

What Are HotHands Warmers Made Of?

You may be surprised to learn that warmers are made from all-natural ingredients including iron, carbon, and salt. When iron is exposed to oxygen, it oxidizes and produces heat. It’s a small chemical reaction found in nature.

Toe Warmers

Cold toes can be a real problem for people working outside or in a cold environment. Luckily, HotHands toe warmers fit snugly in any closed-toe shoe with an adhesive to keep them in place. Toe warmers aren’t as hot as the hand warmers, and they don’t last as long; however, these specialty warmers are thin and easy to use. Toe warmers are a must for anyone spending multiple hours outside in the cold.

Toe warmers are designed to adhere to the inside of the shoe and to be worn with socks. Do NOT apply the warmer directly to the foot.

HotHands Warm Your Family

As the weather gets colder, HotHands hand and toe warmers are the perfect solution for those cold fingers and toes. They provide everyday warmth with all-natural ingredients to keep you and your family warm all day long. Hand warmers are available in different varieties such as game day and a camo pack for hunters. So, get outside and beat the cold all around you!
