What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “These are serious mittens for kids who ski hard. The leather is tough, the insulation is top-notch, and the removable wool liner means they stay warm even on the coldest days. They’re built like Hestra’s adult mittens—just smaller.”The Hestra Wakayama Junior Mitten delivers the same premium performance and craftsmanship as the adult version, giving young riders reliable warmth and durability in classic alpine style. Made with impregnated cowhide leather, these mittens stand up to cold, wet days and provide excellent grip on ski poles or board edges. Inside, a combination of PrimaLoft Gold insulation, fleece, and a removable wool terry liner provides three layers of warmth, keeping small hands cozy in icy conditions. The neoprene cuff seals in heat while blocking snow, and the wrist strap prevents lost mittens during chairlift rides or après play. Designed for kids who spend full days on snow, the Wakayama is a glove that performs season after season.
