Better Fit Overall. Other designs on the market for children utilize excessive fabric in a pleat-style to allow for easy entry into the glove and Velcro for the closure. These designs inhibit and draw moisture into the opening. The ZipperBack design is sleek and snug fitting eliminating the bulk of excess fabric. A heavy duty elastic gather on the inside of the wrist keeps the glove snug around the wrist without the use of an additional strap. 

Ease Of Use. Soft, flexible zippers designed and engineered to make the 90 degree turn on the back of the hand. 

Large zipper pull for easy gripping with your gloved hand.

Emotional. Mittens are maddening for a toddler. Upset they will take off their mittens exposing their hands to the cold. Once kids are cold, the fun is over. Having a glove that goes on easily and quickly is a joyful experience for a parent and their child.

The Most Sanitary Glove Ever Made.ZipperBack completely open the back of a glove provides for air flow inside the glove so it can thoroughly dry. Being able to access the inside of the glove makes washing more effective. 

Ergonomic Design.Engineering gloves to fit small children’s hands make the glove fit better, providing for more functional wear. It is unique in that it placed the thumb opening closer to the finger openings. No other glove on the market uses this design. Think about it: children’s hands are not the same as adult hands. The space between the thumb and the forefinger on a child’s hand is up to a half-inch smaller. Besides keeping their little hands warm, comes a reduction in safety-related issues, too (i.e., holding a rope tow on a beginner ski lift).

Soft fleece “Nose Wipe” On the forefinger. There is a very soft fleece fabric on the forefinger (sewn over the water-resistant shell of the glove), to provide for nose wiping. With this, the gloves won’t have to be pulled off because the fleece is soft enough to not irritate the gentle skin of your children’s face.
