Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Reima Vanukko Mittens waterproof?
Yes. Reima lists the Vanukko as a waterproof winter ski mitten designed for snowy outdoor conditions.
How warm are the Vanukko Mittens?
They are one of Reima’s warmest mitten options. Reima describes the Vanukko as its puffiest winter mitten and uses PrimaLoft® insulation for cold-weather warmth.
Are these a good choice for very cold outdoor school days?
Yes. The Vanukko is designed for cold, snowy winter conditions, making it a strong option for outdoor school, sledding, ski days, and extended winter play.
Will they work for active kids?
Yes. The mitten design keeps fingers together for warmth while still supporting everyday winter activities like climbing, sledding, digging, and playing in snow.
Do they stay on well?
The extended design provides more coverage around the wrist, and the attached straps help keep the mittens with your child when they are taken off during transitions or warming breaks.
What are the straps for?
The straps are designed to help prevent lost mittens. They are especially handy for school, ski days, and winter outings when kids are taking gloves on and off frequently.

Ordering bulk with Outdoor School Shop was just as easy and seamless as I had hoped! As we open up a new program, preparing our first group of kiddos for any weather was at the top of our priority list, and ODSS came through with insight, expertise, and the coolest, most dependable gear around!
