Vertice material keeps your hands comfortable and dry rather than clammy and wet! The material can hold up to the wear and tear caused by trekking poles.
Ergonomic fit on the hand and thumb. Long enough for your jacket sleeves to comfortably overlap the wrists.
Elastic wrist bands have a clip to attach the mitts together or to hang them to dry. The elastic exits at the palm to distinguish the left and right hands.
The mitts are sized to be worn alone, or with a pair of thin liner mittens or gloves underneath for cold weather. These PossumDown gloves work great as liners under your rain mitts.
Fully taped seams.
Repair tape sticks extremely well to the inside of the material so repairs in the field are a cinch. Tape will not stick to the exterior.
All Zpacks gear has a two year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. Please see our return / warranty policy.
Made in the USA.

- Rain gear should only be washed as needed, after a few trips or if you notice that the DWR is not as effective as when new.

They performed quite well on first try hiking in snow and rain mix. Hands were warm and dry while hiking with trekking poles.

Excellent quality. As expected. Perfect!

Had a problem with clasp initially. Thanks to excellent service from Zpack, problem solved.

Positive - it seems that ZPacks makes the smallest and lightest high quality gear in the world. There is nothing as small and light as this currently available from any European company. Not cheap but worth every penny.

Ultra Light and durable. I got out into the wilderness for a few days but it rained for 50 percent of the trip. So, out came the rain gear including my new mitts; they worked flawlessly. Neil "Crush"
