Founder's Story

Hot Tommies started with a chill—literally.

Hi, I’m Ashley, and like many women, I was tired of layering bulky sweatshirts over cute outfits just to survive a brisk fall walk, a freezing plane ride, or walking my daughters to school in the morning. I wanted warmth without sacrificing style, and honestly, I was shocked it didn’t already exist. So, I created it.

With a background in building communities and empowering women in business, I knew Hot Tommies had to be more than just a heated vest—it had to be a confidence layer. Something you’d reach for as much for how it makes you feel as how it makes you look. Something functional and fun. Cozy and chic. Something that made staying warm feel like a power move, not a fashion compromise.

Hot Tommies is for the woman who has things to do, places to be, and no time to be cold. It’s for the go-getters, the stylish travelers, the sideline cheerleaders, the market strollers, the coffee run queens, and anyone who’s ever said “it’s freezing in here” with a side of sass.

This brand is a love letter to the women who do it all and deserve to look good doing it.

Welcome to Hot Tommies. You're officially in the inner circle of warmth.
