The hands are one of the most sensitive body parts, and one of the earliest to lose warmth when temperatures drop. Keep them protected in all conditions with the Hurricane Waterproof Mittens.100% waterproof, they join the Hurricane rainjacket in your pack of essential gear when you're not sure which way the weather is going to go. Lightweight and breathable, they let moisture out so hands don't get unpleasantly sweaty. An elasticated band around the wrist prevents any rain from working its way in. The separate thumb allows you to grip poles while the combined fingers trap body heat to keep cold at bay. The mittens can also be worn over a pair of lighter, finger gloves for added warmth. Good to know: the mittens meet the requirements of ultra trail mandatory equipment lists.
