Convertible mittens with 4-layer insulation that flip open for finger access, waterproof and windproof for ice fishing.
These KastKing ThermoGrip mittens in black, size large, convert to fingerless gloves, so you can free your fingers for tying knots or changing hooks and then cover them again. The nylon shell has a zipper closure and a lined interior for cold days on the ice. A cinch cord at the wrist and a drawcord cuff help keep wind out, which suits ice fishing, hiking and time on the slopes.
