Battery-Powered Heated Socks

No more cold feet, not when you're wearing these tricked-out socks.

"A battery-powered heating element in each padded toe has low and high settings, and won't overheat."

That's a relief.

"The low amperage eliminates any risk of shock, even in wet conditions."

There's another concern to remove from my check list.

"The [heating] element is so thin, you won't even feel it."

Excellent, 'cause my comfort means a lot to me.

"Socks run 12 hours on low and 10 hours on high."

Sounds good; should get me through the day.

Each sock requires one D battery, placed in the fashionable black battery pouch on the outside of each sock.

That's OK: it'll be like working out with leg weights.

And stylish?

Wear these with a miniskirt, and you'll be the belle of the ball.

Look for these on the runways in Milan and Paris this spring.

$24.95.

Yo, my Icelandic posse - these have your names written all over them.
