Mitten/Glove for versitile Hunting & Military Purposes!
Field-tested and ultimately adopted for use by the Special Forces that train at Ft. Carson, Colorado. The Army and Marines in Alaska also tested them. The conclusion and ultimate recommendation is that this model mitten becomes the standard issue trigger finger mitten.
The mitten area is large enough for all the fingers.
In cold conditions where work has to be done, the Renegade Mitten is ideal!
Color: Black
The best mitt I’ve found for snowshoeing. Your hands stay dry, not wet with perspiration. Good dexterity. Handy lanyard loop. No annoying elastic at the wrist – easy on and off.

I've had the Renegade mittens for 10 years. These are my go to mittens for snowblowing and shoveling. Still warm and in perfect condition.

Purchased these last year. Used during several winter backpacking trips. They really could use a cinch strap across the back of the hand to prevent them from sliding down. They also soak through very quickly when working in snow. However, thanks to the excellent lining your hands stay warm with temps above 20 degrees Fahrenheit even when the linings are wet.

I have purchased several Wiggys items over the years- both types of overboots for my wife and I, Renegade Mitten for me, 2 sets of Super Mitten for friends, and the Antarctic Parka for my wife. My wife is tall and slim with long arms, so I called and Jerry answered the phone. He recommended a custom parka with medium sized body and large sized arms. It cost the same as a standard parka and fit my wife perfectly. Since buying her that coat (several years ago), she has never been cold. We live in the upper peninsula of Michigan and a couple of years ago it got down to -35º with windchill of -50º. She was toasty warm regardless of how long she was outside. All of the items we have purchased still look and feel brand new and there has been no degradation in performance.
My hands don't get cold very often, but I decided I didn't want to worry about it any more. With the Renegade Mitten, my hands are always warm. I also like the separate index finger. It allows dexterity which is impossible with regular mittens, and, as noted in the description, there is room in the mitten part for the index finger to maintain optimal warmth. Two male friends have complained about cold hands so I loaned my mittens to them- they love them and are planning on getting their own.
I recommend Wiggys to everyone I talk to here in the UP. Outstanding performance, quality, and service. Doesn't get any better than that.
