Ear Mitts® | Testimonial of an Ironman Competitor

Ear Mitts® | Testimonial of an Ironman Competitor

One of our customers, Elizabeth Johnson, who is an Ironman Hawaii and Ironman Lake Placid, NYcompetitor, wrote in to tell us about her experience with Ear Mitts®.

“I usually start my serious training for the season when the weather gets brisk and breezy and the weather changes daily.  My workouts often include running trails around White Rock Lake in Dallas, Texas or cycling around the lake.

But, I have a solution for this unseasonably changing weather: wearing a pair of Ear Mitts Bandless Ear Muffs.  They keep the early morning cold and the chilly winds coming off the lake out, and keep my ears cozy, warm, and comfortable.  They are so lightweight, that I sometimes forget that I even have them on.

The great part about Ear Mitts®, besides the wonderful colors they come in (they match all my workout gear), is that one size fits all because of their special patented construction.

When the weather becomes nasty, my ears begin to feel as if they are going to fall off, unless I quickly take my Ear Mitts out of my warm-up jacket and slip them on.  When my ears get warm, so does the rest of me.  They certainly make training easier on that 10K run or 40K bike around the lake.

And besides all of these great things about Ear Mitts®, they work with any type of headgear, helmet or cap and allow me to train all year round.”

If you have any special stories of your own about Ear Mitts® and all the great reason and places you wear them, send them to us.  If you would like to get a pair of your own please visit www.warmupsplus.com.

Stormy Cold Weather is here to stay!

Most of the U.S. and the Northern Hemisphere around the world, have received a good blast of winter weather. Weather that is more cold and wintry than usual. This weather is perfect for Ear Mitts®, Snuggler Scarfs™, and our great gloves!™ that have 100mg Thinsulate™ Insulation from 3M! These items  keep you warm and fight off the wet in extreme low-temperatures. Be prepared!

See what Paul Yeager from Sphere has written about this winters next big rush:

“… December was exceptionally stormy across the United States, and the wild weather ride is likely to continue in January and February …  Snow, generally light, fell where it’s normally a rarity: western and southeastern Texas, as well as in parts of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia. Of greater importance, the Deep South was pounded with flooding rain, dangerous thunderstorms and even dozens of winter tornadoes.”

Since we’ve started the busy winter season here at Ear Mitts®, we failed to keep you informed on My Ear Jazz and their adventures in Nebraska. It is definitely time for a re-cap!

Mrs. Geri Johnson of My Ear Jazz has definitely been one busy woman with her embellished Ear Mitts® at different craft and gift shows in the month of November and into December. In November alone she attended eight craft and gift events to show off her Ear Mitts®. Then in December she has rounded out her number to almost 12 events.

Here are some successful and wonderful events My Ear Jazz attended that Geri had a great time attending:

Holiday Splendor in Kearney, Nebraska
November Fest Annual Craft show in Burwell, Nebraska
Fall Harvest Craft Show in Mullen, Nebraska
The One Box Pheasant Hunt in Broken Bow, Nebraska
Southwood Lutheran Global Missions Craft Fair in Lincoln, Nebraska

My Ear Jazz and their embellished Ear Mitts® had quite an ambitious holiday craft line-up, and we hope that maybe you got to join in on some of the experiences. We look forward to the on-going success of My Ear Jazz and all the small-town, big-name shows that they attend. They help keep the love and warmth of crafts fairs alive.

We’re back to mention the success of this past Pacesetter Bazaar at JJ Pearce High School at Richardson, Texas in mid-October. This annual craft and gift bazaar yielded 170 vendors and well over a thousand attendees. The award winning Pacesetters sure know how to liven up a fall crowd. This show offered a bake sale, jewelry items, clothing, crafts, holiday gifts, food items and other types of merchandise that kept the people moving and wanting more. The monies raised by the girl’s efforts go towards helping the activities that they put on throughout the year. Splinters and Ear Mitts® look forward to another year at the Pacesetter Bazaar so that we can once again join in with the fun and activities.
