Parents, these Columbia mittens are exactly what your kids need for cold weather adventures! The Core II model features Columbia's awesome Omni-Tech waterproof and breathable technology - that means little hands stay dry from snow and slush while still being able to breathe so they don't get sweaty and cold. The 3-point precurve design is genius because it follows the natural shape of hands, making movement so much easier than with stiff, straight mittens. The durable PU palm fabric can handle all the climbing, sliding, and playing kids do without wearing out quickly. There's a handy nose wipe on the thumb - because we all know kids will use their gloves as tissues! The pull tab at the cuff makes getting them on and off much simpler, and the hook-and-loop strap adjustment ensures a secure fit that won't let snow sneak in. The collegiate navy color with hypergalactic/bright indigo accents looks cool and hides dirt well. These are unisex design, so they work great for both boys and girls. Whether your child is building snowmen, sledding, waiting for the school bus, or just playing in the yard, these mittens provide the warmth, dryness, and freedom of movement that keep the fun going longer. Columbia knows outdoor gear, and these mittens show their expertise in creating kids' products that actually work in real winter conditions.
