Side Zip Kids Snow Mittens With Water Repellent Shell
Insulated kids snow mittens with a durable water repellent shell, side zip opening and elastic strap for one-handed use.
Kids Snow Mitten At A Glance
A mitten for the age where fingers cannot be trusted to find four separate channels. The outer shell is treated with a durable water repellent finish, the lining is insulated but light, and a zip runs down one side so the opening is wide enough for a small child to get the mitten over a coat sleeve without help. An elastic strap holds it in place once it is on.
What This Style Delivers
- Durable water repellent treated outer shell sheds wet snow
- Insulated lightweight thick lining keeps small hands warm and dry
- Side zip opens the mitten wide enough for a child to manage alone
- Elastic strap gives extra room over a coat sleeve and holds position
- Mitten construction shares finger heat for warmth in deep cold
What It Stops Going Wrong
- Toddlers unable to place four fingers into four glove channels
- Mittens that cannot be pulled over a bulky coat sleeve
- Shells that wet out during snow play
- Mittens pulled off and lost within minutes

How It Compares With The Alternatives
| Five-finger kids glove | A mitten is warmer because fingers share heat, and it is far easier for a toddler to put on. The trade-off is grip on poles and buckles. |
|---|---|
| Mitten without a side zip | Without a side zip the opening will not clear a padded coat sleeve, which is the point where most small children give up and call an adult. |
| Knitted mitten | A knitted mitten soaks through in wet snow. A water repellent shell over insulation keeps working through a full session outside. |
Getting The Best Out Of Kids Snow Mitten
- Open the side zip fully before putting the mitten on over a coat sleeve, then close it.
- Position the elastic strap over the jacket cuff so snow cannot enter at the wrist.
- Air dry away from direct heat to protect the water repellent finish.
- Reproof the shell periodically if the finish stops beading.
FAQ About Kids Snow Mitten
Why is there a zip on the side?
So the opening can be made wide enough to clear a padded coat sleeve. A child can zip it up on their own once the mitten is on, which is the difference between independence and a cold wait for help.
Is the shell waterproof or water repellent?
The mitten shell carries a durable water repellent treatment. For fully waterproof performance we would point you to our kids snow glove, which is specified as fully waterproof.
How warm is the lining?
It is described as an insulated lightweight thick lining, built to keep small hands warm and dry through outdoor play rather than to be the thickest mitten on the wall.
What colourways do you produce?
Black, navy, grey, pink, light blue and maroon are in the current range, and shell colour is a standard development option on a private label program.
Can you add a leash so they do not get lost?
Yes. Strap and leash configuration is a customisation option. The current styles already carry an elastic retention strap.
