What to buy for someone who's always cold

[cantsleepwithnofan]

I've been thinking of warm cardis or scarves, ugg boots...and running out of ideas. My ideas seem boring. It has to be something I can mail, and it's for an older male.

Any ideas?

A hot water bottle!

Tell them to get their thyroid checked!

Im always cold in the house. My favourite things to have to hand are a warm drink, proper cozy socks and some sort of soft, microwavable heaty thing (I have a colourful cuddly dragon). I also often wear a scarf indoors, maybe a snood or something multi-purpose would fit the bill?

Appreciate this isnt much different to what youve suggested, but honestly some good quality, long lasting cozy comforts make a nice gift at this time of year.

One of those super long hot water bottles?

Uniqlo heat tech layers!!

One of those blankets with sleeves?

Heated blanket for sofa.
Cashmere socks or cardigan.
Fingerless gloves.

One of those long, thin hot water bottles.

How about a plug in blanket? For example Aldi

I really suffer from cold feet and this has been brilliant.

I bought some usb rechargeable heated pebbles for holding in your hands. They look nice and warm up quickly and retain heat for hours. I got them from ebay. Search USB rechargeable hand warmers.

Cashmere socks. Not cheap, but luxury and very warm.

jj21, that hot water bottle cover with foot hood looks amazing.

I've been singing the praises of microwaveable slippers, but that may rival them...

Knew Id seen them lately! I bet they're lovely. Me and ds always snuggle up on huge blankets in lounge but I think they're warm enough before taking it that high a level! Ds did say how amazing they'd be for camping though!

I have a Zippo handwarmer device which is very good
Look it up

This kind

But if mailing he will beed to buy his own gas so not great as present

A Japanese kidney warmer. Basically it’s knitwear for your midrif. Really works.

My dd has been reccomended silver socks to wear along with normal ones. Apparently skiers wear them and they help keep extremities warm. She's not got them yet, so no idea if it works but I have a feeling they would.

A slanket!

Camping slippers (lot warmer than regular slippers)

A fleece blanket to sit on. Saves wasting body heat warming up his chair.

As someone who is always cold a blanket is my best friend. Yes I've had a full medical done and perfectly healthy

The christmas bargains thread had a link to cashmere fingerless gloves which were lovely.

I got a heated blanket for Christmas last year. Me and the cat love it. Both curled up with it now in fact.

Thyroid is fine thanks. Well borderline hyperthyroid in fact. Figure that one out!

What Liquid said. I ended up buying two pairs one in a lucky dip colour (£10 off) for my SIL and when they arrived and I saw how amazing they were a purple pair for me. They’re just wonderful.
