Cold hands on the way to school, at the bus stop or on a winter walk – we all know that moment when you'd rather not take your fingers out of your pockets at all. A pocket warmer with a soft knitted cover changes that: one click, and your coat or trouser pocket turns lovely and warm. Small, reusable and completely battery-free – made for your winter days.

• You have warm hands whenever you need them – simply click the small metal disc and the hand warmer instantly gives off heat of up to 50 °C.
• You can carry the warmth with you wherever you go – at a compact approx. 130 x 80 mm, the pocket warmer fits into any coat or trouser pocket.
• You enjoy the warmth for longer and more comfortably – the knitted cover feels soft in your hand and helps the heat last a little longer.
• There's nothing to charge and nothing to replace – the hand warmer is reusable, works without batteries and is ready to use again up to 500 times after a quick boil.

Why this pocket warmer makes a difference every day

In the colder months, a small thing can often decide whether your commute or your Sunday walk is pleasant or not. With a little source of warmth in your pocket, you set off more relaxed, stay outdoors for longer and don't have to keep rubbing your hands together. The warmth is simply there when you need it – no cables, no rechargeable battery, no preparation on the go.

Material & finish

The pocket warmer has the classic hot-water-bottle shape and comes in a knitted cover that feels pleasant to the touch and keeps the warmth in a little longer. Inside is a gel filling made from sodium acetate – a completely harmless substance that is even found in many foods as the acidity regulator E262. The pocket warmer is entirely maintenance-free: there's nothing to refill, charge or replace.

How to use your pocket warmer

• On the way to school or work: click it before you leave, pop it in your coat pocket – and you'll arrive with warm hands instead of numb fingers.
• On a winter walk or a trip to the Christmas market: a little heat pad in each coat pocket – and you can stay outdoors longer without getting cold.
• On the sidelines or waiting at the bus stop: gently kneading it after activation extends the warming phase – so the warmth lasts until you're back indoors.
• As a little gift: with twelve colours, you'll find the right hand warmer for everyone in the family – a small present that really gets used in winter.
• Our tip before first use: Boil the pocket warmer once before using it for the first time. That way, you get the maximum warming phase right from the start.
• Another hot tip for when you're out and about: If you can't boil the pocket warmer during the day, boil it briefly in the morning just before leaving the house and at first only use the residual heat, without activating it. You can then activate it on your way home and enjoy the warmth a second time.

Good to know about sodium acetate

The warmth comes from a simple physical effect: when you click the metal disc, the sodium acetate solution crystallises and releases stored heat. A quick boil dissolves the salt completely again – and the pocket warmer is ready for its next use. That's why this little source of warmth will keep you company not just for one winter, but for many.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: after use, simply boil the pocket warmer briefly until the crystals inside have completely dissolved – then it's ready to go again. This works up to 500 times, with no maintenance or accessories needed.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need batteries or electricity? No. The pocket warmer works entirely without batteries or other power sources and is maintenance-free.

How long does the warmth last? The warmth lasts a long time; gently kneading it after activation extends the warming phase further, and the knitted cover helps keep the heat in for longer.
