MILWAUKEE, WI – This fall, Milwaukee Tool is expanding their lineup of Heated Gear* with the introduction of the USB Rechargeable Heated WORKSKIN™ Midweight Base Layer. Built to be worn alone or easily layered underneath common jobsite apparel, the new base layer combines the comfort of workwear with Milwaukee’s industry-leading heated gear technology to provide users with an all-in-one heated solution. Release date for the base layer-August 2020, hoodie-September 2020


For versatility and total body warmth, the Heated WORKSKIN™ Midweight Base Layer is powered by the REDLITHIUM™ USB** 3.0AH Battery with carbon fiber heating elements for even heat distribution throughout the chest and upper back. A one-touch LED controller allows users to select from two heat settings for ideal heat in any environment and a quick-heat function provides heat 3X faster. Constructed with a double-lined polyester body, fleece-lined arms, raglan sleeves, and seamless shoulders, the Heated WORKSKIN™ Midweight Base Layer equips users with a midweight heated layer, while maintaining an improved range of motion and comfort.

Also New This Year
Along with the new USB Rechargeable Heated WORKSKIN™ Midweight Base Layer, Milwaukee® has also made some updates to their heated gear lineup for this fall. New to the heated gear lineup, the M12™ Heated Hoodie is now available in Navy Blue, in addition to the Gray, Black, and Red color offerings. The M12™ Heated Hoodies use carbon fiber heating elements to create and distribute heat to the chest and back. A Quick-Heat function helps deliver heat 3X faster than before, fully heating up the hoodie faster than other heated gear on the market. Combining a durable cotton/polyester exterior with a waffle weave thermal lining, these hoodies provide a versatile solution to keep heat in and allow users to shed bulky layers. The heated hoodies will continue to feature 3 heat settings, up to 6 hours of run-time, a fitted hood for use under a hard hat, and a rib knit waist and cuff.


Milwaukee‘s REDLITHIUM™ USB and M12™ Heated Gear provide the versatility, durability, utility, and comfort for use in cold conditions and all outdoor environments.
