Futhark Thorbjorg Wool Mitten

A Swedish-knit, 4-layer woolen mitten for keeping your hands toasty in all kinds of weather. A removable knit string threads through the sleeves of your coat, allowing the mittens to hang from your cuffs when they're not being worn. Never lose a mitten again!  The Futhark design was inspired by the cultural heritage of Sweden and the runic alphabets used by Germanic languages before the adoption of the Latin alphabet. The pattern bears the runic inscription “We honor our cultural heritage”, knit in a classical color scheme. Fun fact: Öjbro Vantfabrik mittens are so good at keeping fingers warm that they're actually recommended by the Raynaud's Association!  Materials:  outer material: 100% Merino wool interlining 1: Öjbro soft-warm interlining 2: Thinsulate inner lining: tricot Made by:  Öjbro Vantfabrik Made in:   Sweden Specifications:  Find the perfect fit with our Öjbro Vantfabrik Size Guide.  Care:  For detailed care instructions, we invite you to read our Öjbro Vantfabrik Care Guide. Use:  These mittens are made for serious cold, with a four-layer construction so warm that Öjbro marks them with their Varning Varma Vantar emblem—“Warning: Warm Mittens!” Each layer works like a mitten within a mitten, trapping insulating air for maximum warmth without extra bulk. The design is also wind resistant while still breathable, and the dense wool patterns add a touch of extra warmth.
