"I was fortunate enough to discover the Chaval gloves while researching heated gloves for Reynauds. I spend many hours outdoors and enjoy skiing, snowshoeing and winter hiking in New Hampshire oftentimes in temperatures in the low single digits. I also volunteer as a USSA (United States Ski and Snowboard Association) physician, and will spend full days outdoors at events covering these remarkable athletes. I can honestly say that these gloves are the most effective and most comfortable I have ever owned. I highly recommend these gloves for anyone with circulatory concerns or those who just hate having cold hands!"
-Joshua A. Siegel, MD; Exeter, NH; United States Ski and Snowboard Association Physician
"Warm hands make my ski day so much better. I am on snow 5-6 hours a day, 130 plus days a season. I have my Chaval gloves ready for every one of these days. My job is to provide an outstanding experience in the winter mountain environment. Enjoy it with Chaval. Bring on the heat!"
-Greg Lyons, Heavenly Resort's most requested private lesson instructor 2013-2015; PSIA/AASI-W, Examiner & 30-year Member

"Today was COLD!!! I was a VERY thankful girl that my Chaval gloves were in my pack once the sun went down in the mountains above Salen, Sweden. I rode home in cushy warmth and was SOOOO very thankful!"
-Emilie "Skadi" Moreshead
Pro Backcountry Snowmobile Freerider, 2012 Women's International Freeride Tour in Sweden
From PSIA Level III Ski Instructors in Aspen CO:
"Your heating system works quite nicely. I could dress lighter on my upper body than I typically would and not worry about cold hands. And when my hands did get cold I simply turned the heat on."
"And when clients appeared to have or complained of cold hands I would swap gloves with them, and they would be more relaxed, comfortable and happy."
"I got to try them on four very cold days and they worked very very well. I give them to my clients when they are freezing."
"I think you have an outstanding product and I'm honored to be testing it!"
"The gloves look good and are easy to wear."
"This level of performance is honestly something I wasn't expecting... On the most brutally cold day so far this winter, they were amazing... this has been a gamechanger."
-Sidecut (read the review!)
"...in the past few years my husband has developed Reynaud's in his fingers ... there is no way he would have been able to withstand the cold if he had not had the Chaval gloves on during those ski days. The gloves allowed him a full day of skiing with his family that would have been impossible for him without them."
-Elizabeth Atalay (ski trip report, 0 to -20 deg F, Stowe VT)
"My palms never got sweaty or too hot; they were, in fact, very comfortable… overall, I give these gloves very high marks. I loved them. And for people with poor circulation and/or Raynaud's disease, they would be a perfect holiday gift."
-Marc Hemmes, Skier and blogger
"Skied Vail this week with your new mittens and love them. Kept my hands warm on some very cold days. Without a doubt the highest quality electric mitt on the market. The leather and construction are superb."
-Eric Nelson, Spartanburg SC
"I got your new mittens on Friday and used them in zero degree conditions over the weekend in New Hampshire. They are wonderful. I also own a pair of your gloves which I have had for three seasons and as good as they are, the mittens are even better. Generally mittens are awkward, but not yours. I was able to move zippers and make equipment adjustments without removing them. For most people the gloves are fine, but for people like me who are sensitive to the cold your mittens are an absolute must."
-Robert Michaelson, NYC
"You make the very best gloves by the way, and we've tried many over the years. We skied Mt Bachelor this past week where the wind chill dropped to -5; our Chavals kept our hands comfortably warm and dry the whole time."
-Rick Bochner, Bend OR
"I am a year round motorcycle rider living in North Carolina. When the weather turns cold, I just bundle up and keep riding. In freezing weather, my hands always get very cold after 15-20 min of riding. I tried several top brand heated gloves but the results were always the same: freezing fingers. Then I discovered Chaval. After 30 min at 60 mph in 20 deg temps, my hands were just as warm as they were when I started my ride. These are the best gloves ever and worth every penny I spent. NO MORE COLD HANDS :). If you are seeking a pair of battery powered gloves to keep your hands warm, look no further. A must have for cold weather."
-Stephen Brown, Maiden NC
"Of all the major world brands I have tried, yours are, by far, superior in every way - construction, comfort and heating technology performance. Absolutely outstanding."
-Gary Joseph, Houston
"In northern Canada, the weather can get really nasty. I wore my Chaval gloves in -15 deg F and 40 km/h conditions and found the comfort level to be perfect. They kept my hands toasty warm without getting uncomfortable or sweaty."
-James M., Constable, Royal Canadian Mounted Police
"All in all these are without a doubt the best electric gloves on the market in terms of heat, battery life, and quality."
-Dr. Eric Nelson, South Carolina
"I got these gloves for my wife who has suffered with cold hands for years despite the best gloves available. We just got back from a ski trip to Vermont where it was well below zero every morning and during some of the days as well. These gloves have changed our lives. My wife no longer needs to take frequent breaks to warm up. She is thrilled with her new gloves!"
-Michael Marston, New York
"Gloves keeping my hands warm in temperatures of about -10 above the Callaghan valley. Thanks Chaval!"
-Kay Cahill, Vancouver
"I have been through 5 other models of heated gloves -- none come close to matching these for quality, design, and performance."
-Robert Gordon, Vail
"...these gloves are like individual spas for your fingers! Quick heat-up for all four fingers and thumb - clear to ends! No more Raynaud's attacks! I even wear them inside when needed. Can't wait to throw snowballs again. These gloves are amazing."
-Mary McEwen, Orem, Utah
"My daughter ONLY wanted a pair of Chaval gloves for Christmas (I have a pair and ADORE them!!!)... ordered very late and just got them Dec 24!!! You guys not only make the most wonderful ski glove EVER, you also save Christmas!!!"
-Debbie Seal, Pascagoula, Mississippi

"...an excellent product and I'm continuing to endorse it."
"The gloves were amazing. My hands were toasty all 7 days of skiing!! Wow!"
"I'm beginning to consider your gloves as essential equipment."

"I am impressed by the construction quality and the rapid heating ability."
"I am a motorcycle rider in a cold state and keeping my hands warm on long trips is critical. I am highly satisfied with my purchase."
