BorealCraftField-Ready Materials
We select work-grade goatskin and dense Thinsulate fleece that handle actual job site friction. Every textile layer is chosen for mechanical durability.
Built in Fort Wayne for Frigid Workdays
BorealCraft began out of frustration with mass-market heated gloves that failed after a single winter season. Thin synthetic palms wore through against rough firewood, and internal wires snapped as soon as hands closed into a tight fist. We set out to build cold-weather handwear using the principles of honest workwear: durable full-grain leather, reliable electrical pathways, and field-tested components.
We cut and assemble our patterns using abrasion-resistant goatskin and dense Thinsulate insulation. Every finished pair passes through an electrical resistance test and a visual seam check in our Fort Wayne facility before going into a shipping carton. There are no untested imports or speculative inventory drops in our warehouse.
We deal directly with the tradespeople, drivers, and outdoor workers who rely on their hands. We keep our pricing straightforward by eliminating retail middleman markups, shipping orders directly from our bench, and accepting reliable payment options including cash on delivery and bank transfer.
Our Bench Assembly Standard
We test every internal heating circuit with a multimeter before closing the final wrist seam. Each completed glove is visually checked for stitch tension and boxed in sturdy corrugated cardboard.
Zero Skip Inspection
Every single glove undergoes electrical testing and switch inspection before packing. We do not use statistical batch sampling to guess whether a pair works.
Direct Merchant Service
Our own workshop staff in Fort Wayne handles order packing, invoice generation, and customer communications. You speak directly to the makers if you need sizing help.
We test the resistance of each carbon heating loop on our meter bench before closing the cuff seams.

Tough Goatskin Palms
The leather maintains grip on freezing metal handles without cracking in sub-zero air.
Even Carbon Wiring
Micro-alloy heating loops distribute steady battery warmth along each finger to the tip.
Extended Gauntlet Cuffs
The wide opening fits over jacket sleeves and pulls tight with a cord to block wind.
Direct Workshop Pricing
We sell straight from our workbenches to avoid distributor markups.
Manual Circuit Verification
Every single pair runs through heat testing before being cleared for dispatch.
Clear Return Terms
Unused pairs in original packaging can be returned within 30 days.
