Perfect for working at a desk or cozying up for a night of Netflix, these USB heating slippers provide warmth to the wearer's feet via any USB portal.
The USB heating slippers channel energy from a computer with a handy, detachable USB cord. Simply plug them into any USB portal, and they will power up to warm cold feet. Using infrared technology, the USB heating provides all-over warmth that's never too hot. The slippers themselves are a comfortable, pillow-like velour model -- even on moderately cold days, they can be worn without the USB heating attachment as a luxurious, toasty traditional slipper. A zipper at the bottom of the USB heating slipper allows the heating technology to be removed for easy washing.
