Tailgaiting

Warmers built for a cold stadium bench: lap warmers across the legs, adhesive body packs under a jacket, and hand warmers in your pocket for the whole game.

Hand and lap warmers for tailgating

Four hours on a cold metal bench

A November kickoff is its own kind of cold, and a bleacher seat pulls the heat right out of you. The warmers here are picked for a long game: lap warmers across the legs, adhesive body packs under a jacket, and hand warmers in a pocket until you need them.

The best hand warmers for tailgating

For a full game, keep hand warmers in your gloves and a lap or seat warmer under you on the bench. Air-activated heat needs no power, so there is nothing to charge in the parking lot and nothing that dies by the fourth quarter.

Warm up the whole tailgate

Buying for the section, not just yourself? A case brings the price to well under a dollar a pair, which is how groups keep everyone warm through a doubleheader or a playoff run.

Frequently asked questions

How long do warmers last during a game?
Hand warmers run about 7 to 10 hours and lap or body warmers go longer, so a single pack covers a full game with time to spare in the parking lot. For a doubleheader, an 18-hour Mega has you covered.
How does a lap warmer work?
A lap warmer is a larger air-activated pouch you rest across your legs or sit on. It gives off the same steady heat as a hand warmer over a bigger area, which is what you want on a cold bench for a few hours.
Are tailgating warmers reusable?
No. Air-activated warmers are single use, so plan a fresh pack for each game. For something you can reuse, look at rechargeable electronic warmers, but for a whole section the single-use packs are far cheaper.
Can I buy warmers in bulk for the group?
Yes. A case drops the price to well under a dollar a pair, which is how tailgate groups and booster clubs keep everyone warm. See the bulk collection for case pricing and quotes.
