Lightweight and fully waterproof, the BONATTI WP MITTEN is ideal for ultra races. It has a unique design that includes an opening on the palm side, so you can quickly open the mitten to free up your fingers to grab something in your bag, or adjust drawcords or your jacket. Or, maybe you just need to give your digits a chance to breathe when you’re on the trail.

Very good shells to put on over thin mittens. The fingers (if necessary even the thumb, as long as you bend it a little) can be ventilated out of the palm opening. The solution works well, for example, when running in freezing weather, where you can keep your hands inside the shells at the beginning, but as the parts warm up, you can take your hands out of the shells through the openings. I haven't had a chance to test the waterproofness yet.
The only downside is the slightly strange sizing: the wrist elastic is quite tight and on the other hand the wrist is quite short. In addition, the finger section is quite long, but the thumb is short. I think I have a fairly average hand, so I chose size M/L. A larger size could have been better for some measurements, but overall it was far too big.
