Pickapooh Child Mitt, Merino Fleece, Unlined

My 4 year old loves these mittens! She's in a forest school and needed an alternative to those bulky synthetic winter mittens for kids that don't keep her hands warm. She wears just these if its dry out, or if its wetter, she will put on the rain mittens over these. They have lasted 1.5 winters. They developed holes/thinning of the fabric in the thumbs and tips of fingers, but easily got patched up with some leftover sweater fabric. So she can use them for 2 whole winters. These are great natural mittens, and will last with gentle lanolin baths. She also has a matching balaclava from Pikapooh and loves it as well.

They started falling apart (losing bits of the fleece and becoming not warm) within a few months of use. Outdoor-loving toddlers use their winter mitts quite vigorously; for the price, I expected that this product should withstand at least one season. Not going to lie, a bit disappointed that Warmth and Weather sold me such a subpar item.
