Hotronics Boot Warmers: Unboxing & Step-by-Step Installation

hotronics boot warmers pinnableLast year we were skiing in Mammoth and my feet were numb. Every so often we would have to go into the ski lodge so I could take my boots off. My husband would wrap his scarf around my feet and hold them in an attempt to thaw them out. Then we would go back outside for a bit and start the whole process over.

When we decided to go to Banff, Canada this year (Beautiful but COLD) I knew I needed to do something about it. My buddy had gone there the year before and got frostbite on his big toe and ended up losing his entire toenail (nasty).

I asked around and the general consensus was Hotronics Boot Warmers. They came in the mail and of course they sat in the entryway for months. Well I am proud to say we are going to Banff next week and we finally opened and installed them! I am here to tell you step by step what to do!
