fur mittens

Pelted hand covers

Fur mittens are hand coverings made from or lined with animal fur, designed for extreme cold.

The fur traps air and provides insulation beyond what fabric alone can achieve.

They appear in contexts of winter sports, Arctic exploration, and traditional clothing of northern peoples: She pulled on her fur mittens before heading out into the snow.
