About this piece

The smaller cousin to our Great Northern Choppers, the Northern Pacific Mittens are lined with arctic polar fleece to keep all your hands happy. Elastic back helps keep out snow and cold. Buckskin styles are...well, stylish. What beats leather? Our buckskin has a beautiful, supple texture that makes these mitts extra cozy. See the photos to check out our available colors. All of our buckskin comes from real, wild deer hides, so each one is a little different and may show evidence of life live...

About the artist

Christin Fargo started Frost River in Duluth in 2002 with a single sewing machine and a belief that gear should outlive the person carrying it. The company now employs 40 craftspeople in a century-old building overlooking Lake Superior.

The lifetime guarantee isn't marketing; it's how they were raised.
