Discover our heating products at the Boutique des Sommets.

When winter settles in the Laurentians, facing the cold becomes a challenge for all snow sports enthusiasts. At the Boutique des Sommets, we offer a complete range of heating products to ensure your comfort, whether you’re skiing, snowboarding, or winter hiking. In this article, we explain the differences between heating options like the HotShot Kombi and reusable Hot POC, and explore our specialized products such as heated mittens, gloves, socks, and jackets.

HotShot Kombi vs. Reusable Hot POC: Key Differences

HotShot Kombi: The Convenient Disposable Solution

Kombi HotShots are single-use disposable hand warmers. They are activated by simple contact with the air, making them perfect for occasional outings. Simply slip them into your pockets or gloves to enjoy several hours of consistent warmth.

  • Advantages: Easy to carry, no preparation needed.
  • Ideal for: A day of skiing or a short hiking trip.
Hot POC Reusable: Durable and Eco-Friendly

In contrast, Hot POC reusable warmers use a chemical solution that solidifies to generate heat. Once cooled, they can be reactivated by placing them in hot water.

  • Advantages: Reusable multiple times, a better eco-friendly option.
  • Ideal for: Regular users who want to reduce their ecological footprint.
Criteria HotShot Kombi Hot POC Reusable
Usage Disposable, single-use Reusable
Heat Duration 6-10 hours About 1-2 hours
Environmental Impact Waste after use Low impact, durable
