I bought these mitts for my husband who is handicap, and the cold weather really gets to his hands. Before his accident my husband was a big outdoors person from hunting everything to working on a golf course. After the accident he cold not do much being paralyzed but wanted to stay active. So hunting was his way. He would go out and come in early because of his hands getting cold. Now he stays out the whole time. It is a blessing because it makes him feel normal and forgets that he cant walk. The other thing about the mitts is that they are mitts and not gloves. His fingers curl and are not straight. Thank you thank you.
