“I suffer with cold fingers similar to "raynauds". I bought this product beleiving they were mittens, when in fact they are mittens with finger poockets, so you cannot actually move your fingers within the mitten. I decided to keep them as my son had recomended them to me. Overall though I am a bit disapointed in the internal design. They have not helped me anymore than a normal glove would.”

Hi there, Thanks for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear the design didn’t meet your expectations and that the inner finger pocket restricts movement. We’ll pass your feedback to our product team. If you’d like help finding an alternative that keeps fingers together for warmth or tips on sizing and fit, please let us know. Warm regards, Team Sealskinz Ltd

How is the finger and thumb length? Come up Long, there is space at the finger tips

“Sizing guidelines are inaccurate. 8 inch knuckle measurement is not a womans large in this style. Too big. Also, separate fingers in a mitt do not help keep fingers warm. These mitts are too large and too cumbersome to wear comfortably”

“On 1st inspection they looked excellent quality & make. They fit well, with the inner glove puckered in places which I expect will settle down with use. I ride a recumbent all year round, only rain stopping me setting of. Worn the glove 4 times with temperature 2 deg to -4 deg, my hands & fingers after riding about 1 hour were cool, not cold though As I said earlier about fit well I hope the same will apply regarding warmth improving with wear. The glove/mitt enables me to work all my controls well. Pleased so far”

“I ordered the Swaffham mitten, assuming that it was a genuine mitten, without internal fingers. On receipt it became clear that I had assumed wrong; the mitten HAD internal fingers!! I did not want this as I was planning to use an electronic hand warmer inside the mitten! Returning the item to Sealszins was however very easy and I got a full credit within reasonable time. Very good service I felt.”

“Very waterproof, very warm, good build quality on the palms. The thumb is about an inch too long.”
