When your hands are busy and your focus matters, cold air creeping into your home studio or workspace can throw everything off. Whether you're sanding, stitching, soldering, or sketching, being productive in a cold workshop isn’t easy. The chill sets into your fingers, your focus drifts, and even the simplest tasks take longer than they should.
You shouldn’t have to choose between getting things done and staying warm.
At Heat Holders®, we know how important it is to stay warm without bulky gear getting in the way. Whether your workshop is in the garage, basement, or out back, here’s how to create a more comfortable, focused space—starting with what you wear.
Layer Up Without Bulking Up
Start at the Base
Begin at the base with ULTRA LITE™ base layers and t-shirts. Made with HeatWeaver® technology, these items keep you warmer all day and no bulk! Designed to move with you, Heat Holders® base layers and t-shirt let you express yourself fully and comfortably.
Add a Jacket
The key to staying warm in a cold workplace is layering with the right materials. Our Zip Jackets and Vests are a go-to choice for many Heat Holders® customers. They’re lined with our soft HeatWeaver® thermal lining, which traps warm air close to your body—without weighing you down.
Keep one hanging near your workbench, ready to grab when the chill kicks in. For added style and warmth, our Button-Up Shirt Jackets and Vests deliver a classic look with serious heat-trapping technology built in.
Don’t Forget Your Head
Heat escapes quickly from your head—and in a chilly workshop, that adds up fast. Our LITE™ Hats, lined with stretchy HeatWeaver® material, are a smart choice for indoor spaces where you need warmth, but still want breathability and movement. The all-stretch design means it fits comfortably, even during long hours of wear.
Hands-On Warmth, Fingers-Free
If your work requires finger dexterity—whether you're turning knobs, holding a pencil, or handling tools—you’ll love our Fingerless Gloves. They keep your hands warm while leaving your fingers free to move, grip, and create. Made with the same thermal magic as our classic gloves, they’re perfect for semi-heated spaces or drafty work areas.
The Foundation: Socks That Keep You Grounded
Cold floors are the enemy of warm feet. A solid pair of thermal socks can make or break your comfort level, especially in an unheated garage or concrete-floored studio. Our ULTRA LITE™ and LITE™ Socks give you thermal protection in thinner styles, so you can wear them comfortably in casual shoes.
Choose ULTRA LITE™ for everyday warmth without the bulk, or go with LITE™ when you need a little more insulation underfoot. Either way, your feet will stay warmer, longer—which means your body does too.
Build a Warmer Workspace, One Layer at a Time
You don’t need to overhaul your whole studio to make it more comfortable. Start by adding the right thermal layers—especially ones that are easy to grab and keep close by.
Many Heat Holders® fans keep a vest or hat right in their workspace, just in case. One quick layer, and they’re back to focusing on the task at hand—not the temperature.
