mitts
Padded catcher's gear
Mitts are gloves, especially those without separate fingers or with the fingers cut off: oven mitts, baseball mitts.
In informal speech, mitts means hands: Keep your mitts off my stuff.
A catcher's mitt in baseball is heavily padded for receiving pitches.
Mittens, the full form, typically refers to cold-weather handwear with a thumb compartment but no individual fingers.
