Cold, wet hands make a rainy day longer than it needs to be. Farmerrain’s mittens in Biovinyl+ do not let water through, and they are roomy enough for you to wear a wool mitten underneath when it is cold.
The same mitten works on the bike, with the pram and at work.
Sealed surface, warm inside
Our mittens are made of Biovinyl+ 430 g/m² with a water column of over 20,000 mm.
The material withstands oil and is wiped clean with a damp cloth.
The rib-knit cuff closes around the wrist so that the rain does not run in.
• Water column of over 20,000 mm
• Oil- and waterproof Biovinyl+ 430 g/m²
• Rib-knit cuff at the wrist
• Roomy size with space for a wool mitten underneath
• Unisex in XS, M and XL
Lined or unlined
We have the mitten in two versions, both in black, red and True Blue:
• Mitten Lined has a fleece lining that keeps you warm without anything underneath.
• Mitten Unlined is the light, sealed shell. Wear it as it is when it is mild, or pull it on over a wool mitten when it is cold.
Layer upon layer – for the hands too Wool warms even when it gets damp, but it does not keep the water out. A sealed mitten does the opposite.
Together they form protection that copes with both cold and wet. That is why our mittens are made roomy: a thin or thick wool mitten innermost, Biovinyl+ outermost.
In the Nordic countries, the knitted wool mitten has a long history.
The Lovikka mitten, which Erika Aittamaa created in Lovikka in the Torne Valley in 1892, is still one of the best-known examples.
Made to be used for a long time
Biovinyl+ is based on BIOVYN™, the world’s first commercially available bio-attributed PVC.
It gives the same protection as traditional vinyl, but part of the raw material in manufacturing is renewable instead of fossil, and the share is tracked according to the mass balance principle.
The most important environmental decision is still to use a garment for a long time, and a pair of mittens that withstand oil, water and wear do not need to be replaced every season.
For everyday life and work
The mittens belong on the bike to work, on the walk with the pram, in the garden and in the stable, on
the boat and when working outdoors. Combine them with a rain jacket and a sou’wester for complete weather protection.
