Description
Features
- Genuine British Military Issue — Authentic surplus-issue ECW outer mittens originally fielded to British Army personnel operating in arctic and alpine environments.
- Waterproof Gore-Tex Shell — Built from a Gore-Tex laminate that blocks wind and water while allowing moisture vapor to escape, keeping inner gloves dry.
- Worn Over Combat Gloves — Sized as an oversized outer layer, designed to fit cleanly over standard contact gloves, wool liners, or insulated mitts.
- Extended Gauntlet Cuff — Long cuff reaches well past the wrist to seal out snow, ice, and slush when worn under or over a jacket sleeve.
- Adjustable Drawcord Closure — Shock-cord drawstring at the cuff cinches down to lock heat in and keep the elements out.
- Wrist Retention Strap — Hook-and-loop wrist tab dials in a secure fit and prevents the mitten from shifting during heavy work.
- DPM Woodland Camouflage — Traditional British DPM pattern for field concealment and matching the rest of your DPM kit.
- Mitten Construction — Full mitten design groups the fingers together to share body heat, dramatically outperforming gloves in sub-freezing conditions.
- Lightweight and Packable — Unlined shell layer stows easily in a pack or cargo pocket until conditions turn nasty.

Military gear that actually worksBought these for hunting season and they've been fantastic. The quality is obvious right out of the box and the shooting window lets you keep your gloves on while handling your weapon. No complaints so far.

Nice added layerFor the price you can't go wrong with this added layer. The ones I got are new, nice long gauntlet style that can go over a variety of gloves that I own. Will be glad I have them this wi ter on the extra cold days in MA.
Light and versatile.
Can't think of one.

Great product in ok conditionI plan to use these for cycling in the rain because they are lightweight and can be used in any weather condition. I held them under a faucet and they stayed completely waterproof. However, one of the mittens was slightly frayed in places which compromised their waterproof nature. They should still be very effective and blocking wind and rain but they did have small rips on the outer layer.

Really big and windproof.You have to use these as intended; over some smaller, warmer gloves or mittens. As mittens, they're almost useless but when used as directed, they really work. But you pretty much have to be standing around outside in the cold doing nothing all day to really appreciate them. If you need to use your hands with these things on, you're going to have a hard time.

Duck Hunters NoteThese are excellent, large over mitts that are perfect in a duck blind or layout boat. They shed water, keep the wind off, and are easily and quickly taken off when the ducks appear. You can wear gloves or mittens under them...I like fingerless convertible mittens...whatever lets you operate your shotgun efficiently. An excellent layering system for your hands.
