Yes a company makes them, but I tried to buy a couple and they don't ship to Canada. I thought of calling them to make arrangements to buy them and have them shipped but then I thought they were a bit expensive and the shipping was not included and finally, I want them NOW!

So I made my own. They don't look as good but they will do the job fine. Some faux fur would have looked so much better. I used an old bath towel but anything that will give some insulation from the cold will do. I folded the towel, cut to the size I wanted and taped both sides to make a pouch. Then a piece of tape to close the bottom leaving two openings to slip the hands in. The openings are also big enough to slip the radio in there.

Finally, a trash bag to make it water proof and serve as a barrier for the wind. This is just a prototype. I may make better ones that are sewn instead of taped with one side that can fully open and close using Velcro to make it easier to put the radio in.

People are going to look at us and wonder why we have trash bags over our hands but we don't care. If they laugh at us, we'll just aim for their shins at full throttle.



No brain, no headaches.
