A warm, waterproof, breathable winter ski mitten, the Gordini Cache Gauntlet Women's Mitt pairs rugged canvas and synthetic leather with an AquaBloc® insert, Primaloft® insulation, and moisture wicking lining to create the perfect microclimate in your mitts. Mittens, while they have the advantage of keeping your fingers under one cover, have the disadvantage of creating a sloppy grip on poles where you might want greater and more accurate control. The Cache solves this problem by giving these fingermitt construction. It seems counterintuitive, that building a glove into a mitten would have you greater dexterity, but by controlling the extra fabric and slippage created by in mitten construction fingermitts give you the added warmth of mittens with the control of gloves. A gauntlet style glove designed to go over your parka sleeve cuffs these have a snow blocking cuff drawcord and an adjustable wrist strap to give these a comfortable and secure custom feeling fit. And because we do not want you and your mitts to be parted, a wrist leash is attached, simply slip your hands through the leash and into your mitts. You’ll forget you’re wearing a leash until you pop your gloves off on the lift and you don’t accidentally lose one overboard! A mitten for women who like the feel of precision and control that comes with fingertip control on the poles.
