The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Absolute Mitts are the best weight-to-warmth ratio expedition mittens in the Black Diamond Mitts range. With a temperature range of -28°C to -40°C, depending on the intensity of the activity, these mittens are an essential accessory for winter expeditions in the extreme cold. The mittens consist of a three-finger over-mitt and a three-finger under-mitt with a total weight of 424 grams.
The over-slippers are made of Pertex Quantum with a Gore-Tex membrane that makes them 100% waterproof, yet breathable. The fingers, thumb and palm are reinforced with goat leather to limit abrasion when handling strings for example. The insulating lining is made of 200 gram Kodenshi Primaloft on the palm and 340 grams on the back. They have a tightening strap at the wrists, a drawstring at the entrance and an anti-loss strap.
The three-fingered insoles are made of soft stretch fabric on the outside and Hi-Loft fleece on the inside to provide insulation. A velcro strap on the cuffs keeps them in place when tucked into the over-slippers.
