MITTEN INGREDIENTS EXPLAINED
ÜÜRav
Rav with a respectful nod to the glory days of glove design.
2-LAYER NYLON RIPSTOP SHELLS Our rugged, hydrophobic yet breathable shells provide a double layer first line of defense from the elements. DWR COATING Our shell fabrics have a durable water repellent coating which prevents moisture from passing through the mitten’s exterior. PRIMALOFT ® INSULATION Developed for the military as a water resistant alternative to goose down, Primaloft® has a lightweight synthetic structure that suspends millions of air particles in a microfiber mesh, repelling water while trapping in heat to keep you warm and comfortable in cold wet environments, like our home in Oregon. PRIMALOFT ® GRIP-CONTROL PALM INSULATION This special blend of Primaloft was originally developed for footwear applications. The fibers are structured to minimize lateral shearing, providing an anti-slip, super stable surface, which works wonders for increasing your grip power. II PAUL OSBORNE
THE FIVE
15K HIPORA® INSERTS These waterproof, breathable, 3-layer silicon coated membranes encapsulate our insulation and liners. The microporous honeycomb structure contains 9 billion pores per square inch, sized to prevent water (melting snow and rain) from entering, while allowing water vapor (your sweat) to escape to keep your hands dry and happy.
BULLETPROOF PALMS™ Our all new, incredibly durable, waterproof, closed cell composite microfiber. CRUBBER PALMS™ Grippy, durable, waterproof synthetic blend. CRUNCH GRIP™ Incredibly grippy silicone injected microfiber. Found on most of our mitten thumbs for added grip. MICRO FUZZ™ LINERS Soft and fuzzy brushed poly tricot liners. SHERPA FLEECE COMBO LINERS™ Extra warm sherpa fleece hand backs with cozy Micro Fuzz™ palms. SOFT WIPE THUMB PANELS Almost all mitts come with runny nose, goggle lens friendly flocked suede thumb backs.
HAND SANDWICH CONSTRUCTION™ We use thicker insulation and liner materials in our hand backs where your hands lose the most heat, and slightly thinner materials on the palm side for increased grip and dexterity. SYNTHETIC VS. LEATHER? Leather is durable, but it gets wet quickly, drys slowly, requires constant maintenance, and is very expensive. As such, we have developed a proven palate of three synthetic palm materials that we believe outperform leather in many ways, allowing us to provide better mitts at a better price.
