Do heated socks work?

I like the soles as well.. +1

Lower engine guard air deflectors help as well (cold and wet).

It is amazing how much heating your feet can make you feel that much warmer. I wear heated pants with the heated socks, and if I have the socks on, I usually have to turn the pants on low. They make a huge difference. I also have the deflectors that snap on the engine guards, and they seem to help a little, but if I am out riding at any temperature 50 and below, heated socks make all the difference!

I love my Gerbing heated gear. Its the best investment I've made. Love my heated socks.

I put those same lower deflectors on earlier this week. They make a huge difference in how fast my feet get cold! I was riding in at upper 20's and feet were cold in a few minutes before the lowers. Yesterday it was 17, today it's 14. Never really noticed my feet cold until after I had walked to the office, near 1/4 mile. But, the socks work very well, I just don't use them much anymore.

Keep in mind with heated socks, when you first put them on the wires in side the socks may feel terrible and you may not like it BUT once the socks heat up the wires soften and that feeling will disappear.
Unless you have a lot of walking to do when you get where your going, then you may want to get the heated insoles

Do the heated insoles make your footwear seem "tighter" or do they not take up a lot of space under the feet?

I noticed also, that Gerbing now has a wireless dual heat controller as well. I think I'm going to ask Ms Claus for that. Less wires to contend with and will make it easier to get to the controls.

I never even noticed the wires in my socks. ALways wear them over my regular socks. My gear is First Gear not Gerbing though.

These lowers are nice and do make a difference, BUT if you scrape your pegs often they will hit and may break as my left side did.
