For customers who want the warmth of a mitt, but the freedom of a glove, Swany created TOASTER CONSTRUCTION MITTS. The mitts combine a glove within a mitt and a zipper opening, which allows the user to slide their hand out of the mitt. The customer gets warmth and dexterity.The side zipper also is ideal for inserting heat packs and for ventilation in milder conditions. Some consumers erroneously believe that having a glove inside the mitt will reduce its effectiveness. The easiest way to explain the situation is to remind them that while it is true that the fingers share warmth, they also share moisture, and moist skin loses heat much faster than dry skin.The gloves inside the mitts wick moisture away from the skin to increase warmth and comfort. Moreover, the inner gloves are touch screen compatible.Outer shell generates heat through absorption of visible and infrared rays from the sun. Also reflects wearers infrared rays back to the hand.
