When it’s cold, or when you want to hold on with your whole palm, close the mitten. When you need your fingers, you can open it up.
Fold the open mitten in, like folding socks, and it stays compact. No flapping around, so it won’t get in your way.
Fingertips come out easily
Even when wheeling your wheelchair, grip firmly with your whole palm
The colors of these mittens were inspired by the beloved cats of kittoi’s founders. Here are the color variations, and a little about the cats.
Abi
Poised like a lady by the window. Really just a laid-back cat.
Brown
Milo
Full of curiosity. Playful, but shy with strangers.
Smoke Blue
Lulu
A girl who can’t resist food. A little stubborn.
Black
All kittoi products are made in Japan. Our goal is to make products you can cherish for a long time, and that work is supported by wonderful techniques, handwork and craftsmanship from all over Japan. We hope you enjoy not only the product, but also the feel of Japanese craftsmanship.
The home of glove-makingSanuki City, Kagawa Prefecture
Kagawa Prefecture is Japan’s leading glove-producing region. There, kittoi’s “Everyday Companion Mittens” are carefully made by Fujita, a sewing factory that has been making gloves for over 50 years. These slightly unusual mittens, packed with clever details, could only be made thanks to the advanced sewing skills handed down there.
About Fujita
Since its founding in 1960, this sewing factory has stayed committed to handwork in making gloves. Drawing on long-honed skills, its craftspeople sew with care, thinking about how fingers move and adding all kinds of thoughtful details. Today it also makes a wide range of items beyond gloves, including caregiving and sports wear and accessories.
