The mittens for the cross country skier, winter walker, and any activity that has you engaged in cold weather aerobic activity, the Carmel Windstopper Mitts for men by Armada use a Gore Windstopper® 177g Fleece on the back of the hand and a GORE Windstopper® liner to create a windproof, cozy, mitt designed to keep you comfortable without being the kind of warm that has you yanking off your gloves and waving your hands around in the winter air to cool them off. Until you’ve owned a pair of these it is difficult to appreciate how fantastic a pair of wind blocking mittens are for those afternoons of nordic skiing, snowshoe trots, or brisk walks with the dog. It’s the perfect mitt for those winter activities where insulated mitts are much too warm and cumbersome and leave you taking them off, shoving them in your jacket, and then alternating between freezing your fingers, or overheating. For the man who is tired of winter gloves that are just too much for his active lifestyle and needs some flexibility, the Carmel Windstopper mitt gives you a synthetic suede palm and silicone palm print for a sure grip on poles and gear in a wind blocking mitt that adds a whole new range of comfort to your winter wardrobe.
