The red mittens were a present for my sister in law. She has raynauds disease and was very happy with the mittens. Pretty, practical and merino/possum warm.

mitts and personal service Not easy to find possum blend MITTS although there are lots of gloves. Mitts are beautiful, light and warm to wear under a heavy insulated mitt and truly do keep my hands warm. I have Raynauds syndrome with poor circulation to my hands. In cold Canadian winters my hands can become incredibly painful. Possum merino mitts under insulated mitts are the only solution that really works! Service was personal and helpful. You ensure I received my mitts before my flight back to Canada!

mittens so amazing! best mittens I have ever had- will keep your fingers toasty in 40 degree weather probably in lower temps if you use the mittens as liners

Very warm and comfortable. I think a longer thumb would add benefits. Both my daughter and i found the area at the base of the thumb was a bit tight or not quite as flexible as it could be. Thanks.

Best mittens I had a similar pair of mittens that I bought when I visited New Zealand a few years ago. I lost them last winter. I bought two pairs locally but just not the same. Winter is set in here (Canada). I’ve worn your mittens several times and they are the best. Very versatile.

Merino & Possum Fur Mittens I wear fingerless compression gloves for arthritis all winter and as a result suffer from chilblains on my fingertips. Gloves over the top are too tight but these mittens are perfect! They are not bulky at all but surprisingly slim & elegant.

Merino and possum mittens Beautiful set of mittens. Warm soft and light. Purchased them for my husband whose fingers turn under so can’t wear gloves. These mittens are perfect.

Mittens This is my second order from The Tin Shed. I just love the fibers that are used to make these WARM and comfortable mittens. I discovered these when we were traveling and when I got home I realized I couldn't live without them,

Lothlorian - Merino & Possum Fur Unisex Mittens

LOVE them! Fit well and are verrrrrrrrrrrry arm! I was introduced to the combination of merino and possum when I was in New Zealand a couple of years ago and just love the warmth provided!

Lothlorian - Merino & Possum Fur Unisex Mittens

SOFT AND WARM I'm very pleased with these fuzzy little beauties. I had a pair from a long ago trip to NZ that are still going strong like 12 years in but wanted to get another pair before they finally wear out. These are maybe slightly thinner than my old ones but they are fuzzier and softer. For a thinish wool they're very warm. The only thing is I wish there were more colours available since I would like them in light grey. The colours I ordered are nice - the black is deep and rich looking and the tan is a very natural earthy colour.. They were shipped and received very quickly even though I'm half a world away. The customer service was very helpful. Highly recommend these mittens. The mediums are generous in size.

Lothlorian - Merino & Possum Fur Unisex Mittens Purchased for my husband. Bands at the wrist little bit short for his long hands. He is disabled so they are easy to put on and off. Lovely and warm.

Materials are excellent. Sizing is highly inaccurate: far, far smaller than measurements provided. Small is child size. Medium is barely small woman size. Love, love the fiber and its warmth. But not much use if you can't actually wear them.

Merino & Possum Fur Unisex Mittens Disappointing. I brought a large pair which are basically unwearable because there is not enough room at the crook of the thumb.
