Check 'em out here.

You shake them and put them inside a glove or boot. They do need air ciculation to work properly, so don't use them inside any sort of wind sheild (water proof sock, bag or toe cover).

I've had varying degrees of success with them. Typically they work good, but, again, need air to work properly.
