Keep your Coffee Hot and Toes Toasty with USB Warmers

With the temperature hitting record lows in Korea lately, I’ve been searching online for things to help me keep warm while I’m on my laptop. Turns out, there are countless creative companies that have come up with ways to keep people cozy while they study or work.

Here are a few of my favorite finds that blend innovation and style. I’d recommend a USB multi-charger if you decide to go for these!

USB Gloves

If you find the idea of wearing gloves indoor a bit strange, I invite you to embrace the cute and unknown with an open mind. These USB-heated gloves not only come in colorful animal paw shapes and character designs, but they’re an effective solution to keep hands warm and fingers nimble. Just plug the gloves into your computer’s USB port and wait for the electric pads inside the gloves to heat up. Because they’re fingerless, you won’t have any problems when you type.

USB Feet Warmer

I couldn’t resist these bright and cheery USB feet warmers. They work in the same way as the USB gloves with a compartment in the soles to hold heating pads. Feel free to also wear these safely shoes around the house (when unplugged, of course) because the bottoms are treated with an anti-slip coating.

USB Mug Warmer

When you’re glued to your seat watching your favorite Korean drama, there’s NO TIME to get up for more hot cocoa! Try a USB mug warmer to keep your drink piping hot for as long as possible. It works much like a hot plate when you plug it in and the heat is distributed evenly throughout the heat pad. The models coming out these days generate heat so well that some people are known to keep a whole bowl of soup hot on a mug warmer.
