Woolpower - Mittens | wool mittens

Woolpower Mittens 400.

The layering principle also applies to your hands. The more layers, the better the insulation. When your body gets cold, blood flow to the hands and feet decreases and it prioritizes providing heat to the heart, brain and other vital organs. That's why you feel the cold first in your hands and feet, even if the rest of your body feels warm.
Knitted mittens are warm and flexible, but not completely windproof.

Woolpower Ullfrotté Original 400 grams fabric

The Woolpower 400 is a fabric that is used when the
weather is colder and you don't have to move as much. Ullfrotté is a substance that
Woolpower has developed itself. It is a mix of merino wool and polyamide.
Due to the special way of knitting, where one side of the fabric is flat and
consists of loops on the other side, this material retains a lot of air and therefore heat
fixed. The fabric absorbs moisture and sweat from the body and transports it to
the outside of the fabric. This keeps your body warm. This also works the
the other way; when it is hot outside, the body is kept cool by the
dust. Wool does not absorb odors, so the clothes do not retain the sweat smell
fixed.
These Woolpower Mittens are made of 70% merino wool and 30% polyamide.

The mittens are machine washable at 60 degrees and are tumble dryer safe.

About Woolpower

Woolpower is a Swedish brand. In the early 1970s, in collaboration with the Swedish army, they started producing merino wool thermal underwear. This development results in clothing that can withstand the most extreme temperatures and is also very durable. Woolpower clothing never consists of 100% merino wool, as this is too wear-sensitive for intensive use. By adding other materials, the Woolpower underwear is optimally able to transport and evaporate sweat.

Woolpower products are made in Östersund, Jämtland. The seamstresses make a complete Woolpower product from start to finish. When they are satisfied with the result, they sew their own name tag into the garment.

Woolpower's idea is that it is not thermal clothing that keeps you warm, but your own body. Woolpower's thermal clothing ensures that there is a layer of air between the body and your thermal underwear, thanks to Woolpower's unique structure. Woolpower thermal clothing is available in 3 types, the LITE, Ullfrotté Original 200 and Ullfrotté Original 400. There are also socks in Ullfrotté Original 600 and even in Ullfrotté Original 800.
