Four-layer waterproof mittens that convert to fingerless gloves, designed for ice fishing in extreme cold.
The PolarBlast is a convertible mitten for cold-water days, with a waterproof, windproof shell over 40 grams of 3M Thinsulate. Magnetic flaps fold back to leave the fingers free for tying knots or using a phone. A microfiber palm with a printed grip pattern helps hold a rod, and the cuff cinches with one hand.
