Product description

A proper ol' pair of mittens, these old Swiss army gauntlets are made of thick curiously textured cotton which you would be hard-pressed to find today even with all kinds of Poirots and Sherlocks combined. The lining is ridiculously comfy flannel and the condition completely unissued. Made large enough to fit wool gloves underneath. Apparently meant originally as protective gloves for rocket launcher operator, these work well as regular gauntlets too.

Complete with superb adjustment straps, long length, and button & tab to pair them together. Swiss army stuff generally is very very high quality and these are definitely no exception, and for this price, they are a genuine steal to anyone looking for a pair of old-timey mittens. Hell, buy an extra pair if you manage to lose one.

One size fits all.

Condition

The mittens we received haven't been used at all, judging from the pristine shape. Just stored for decades. They probably made these from the '50s till the '80s or something. No idea how long these will be available, the same story as with most surplus - we might be able to keep them in stock for five years, or one month.

Very nice fit over the BW-style leather gloves, for really cold weather. Or when you just need something warm for snow shoveling duty. Feels like they will last forever.

These are pretty much the greatest value in the history of Buying Stuff. The mitts are incredibly sturdy and surprising warm for what they're made of. With a merino liner glove inside, I use them on winter fatbike rides under non-extreme conditions. This arrangement cuts most of the wind and holds heat well. And as you can see they are SEXY. Of course, with cotton construction they will retain moisture so you have to take that into account. But overall, can't beat this deal. Highly recommended.

I am very surprised by these, i honestly wasn't expecting much. I received an older model it seems, it doesn't look much like the picture. Overall the gloves i received are shorter than in the picture, they are two toned the palms are entirely grey in color, and the inside is of a very warm wool flannel. These are quite rough and a little itchy on the inside because of the wool but i use Belgian 100% wool gloves underneath anyways. This combination keeps my hands warm even in -15c. Very nice and ridiculously durable, EXTREMELY well made. Now like i said, i did get an older model so im not sure how the newer ones that are pictured above are, but the model i received is very, very nice.
