Low temperatures, cold wind and icy water. Fly fishing in winter is no walk in the park. And although we keep our fingers moving almost constantly by casting and stripping, it can still happen that they get cold. In such adverse conditions, the Homepool Mitt Gloves from Patagonia come into their own!
These open palm gloves offer superior protection and mobility for the whole hand in cold weather. The Yulex material used, which Patagonia also uses for wetsuits, reliably keeps the fingers warm even when wet. On the inside, a micro-grid thermal lining ensures pleasant wearing comfort. The simple yet sophisticated design keeps the back of the hand warm at all times, while the finger protector can be quickly folded away for fine tasks. In seconds, the Homepool Mitt Gloves transform from mittens to fingerless gloves - for example, to change your fly or tie on a new tippet. The glove extends to the middle of the forearm for extra protection and warmth. They also keep you warm when you release your catch back into the water.
The Patagonia Homepool Mitt Gloves combine the advantages of mittens with the benefits of fingerless gloves. A universal solution for fly fishers who don't want to choose!
