Heated gear will make you a wintertime person. See for yourself.

If you've never been a fan of the cold, get ready to be. Heated apparel saves outdoorsmen, winter sports enthusiasts, athletes, and more from avoiding the outdoors this fall and winter, from heated jackets, hoodies, pants, and even heated hats and beanies.

This headwear uses heated technology that is safe and perfect for long hours of outdoor activities. So whether it's for hunting, outdoor work, snowboarding, or mountaineering, these winter hats are here to keep heat locked in your body.

Is Heated Apparel Safe?

I know battery-operated clothing might sound sketchy to some. Totally understandable. These winter staples are designed to withstand the elements, so no need to fear a little snow or drizzle. Heated apparel is safe. What's not safe is going outside for long periods without the right winter clothing. (Hello frostbite.)

Deep Heat Gear writes, "No, you will not be electrocuted if it starts raining, snowing or you are plunged into a dunk tank wearing a heated jacket or other heated clothing."

These 5-20 volt jackets and pants are not enough to injure a person. Trust me, no one is using 40V batteries in a hat, y'all.

Best for Budget

1. Svpro Battery Heated Beanie Hat Rechargeable Heated Hat

For something simple that will keep your head warm, consider this beanie from Svpro. It looks like any other cold weather beanie, except for what's inside of it.

The temperature adjustable hat is equipped with a 7.4V 2200mAh Li-Polymer rechargeable battery to provide seven hours of heat. Of course, the battery life will vary by heat setting. There are three temperature settings so that you can adjust the hat based on the weather that day!

The only downfalls to this windproof heated hat are that it doesn't provide as much protection as the option below and is not machine washable. Hand wash the unisex hat to prevent damage.

Amazon customer reviews are amazing.

Best for Ultimate Warmth

2. ActionHeat 5V Battery Heated Fleece Balaclava Face Mask

Here's the best heated hat for frosty winter days. The $100 fleece balaclava is perfect for those who need to protect their face from strong winds and light rain. The water-resistant softshell layer will keep your cheeks and ear area dry and warm.

The Actionheat 5v battery heated winter hat has three levels of heat controlled by the temperature controller. Just press the button to turn it on. The rechargeable hat even comes with everything you need to keep it charged. (One USB charger kit and one power bank.)

The 5-volt battery lasts up to 4.5 hours on a single charge. 1.5 hours on the highest setting, 2.5 hours on medium, and 4.5 hours on low.

One size fits most (typically) when it comes to beanies and masks. So grab one of the hats for yourself or for a friend.

Don't forget to stay toasty with reusable hand warmers. We rounded up the best options available, and our friends over at Alt_driver rounded up the best heated gloves for winter.

Stay warm, y'all.
