The Kulkea Thermal Kart is a heated, insulated travel backpack built to carry and warm your ski boots, helmet, and gear. A 40-liter capacity and a dedicated heated boot compartment make it an easy way to keep boots warm and dry from the car to the first chair.

Why we like it:

The heated boot compartment is the standout; a three-setting controller warms boots to a maximum pad temperature of 140 F and plugs into both a wall outlet and a 12V car socket, so you step into warm, dry boots no matter how cold it is.

Features and Functions:

The Thermal Kart holds 40 L (20.5 x 13.5 x 10 in) with a top-load heated boot compartment fitting boots up to Mondo 29.5, a three-setting heat controller (up to 140 F) with dual 20V wall and 12V car plug-ins, a retractable helmet sling, a front apparel pocket, a top accessories pocket, and a ski-pass pocket; it is built from water-resistant 300D x 600D recycled diamond ripstop polyester with a waterproof PVC-free tarpaulin base and YKK zippers, plus contoured shoulder straps, a sternum strap, an adjustable waist belt, and a luggage pass-through strap.

Bottom Line:

As a heated boot bag, the Thermal Kart is best at carrying and warming boots, helmet, and gear so you start the day dry and comfortable.
