Most adults prefer gloves, but they say that mittens keep our fingers warmer. What do you say?

But you just feel silly in mittens, when you're a grown up. even if they do keep your hands warmer.

I just never go anywhere where it's cold. That's my solution!

Personally, I need the mittens with the strings attached, that go through your sleeves so I don't lose them!

How do mittens keep our fingers warmer anyway? I don't get it!

the fingers kind of share body heat, as it were, not unlike sharing a sleeping bag...

I wear mittens snowboarding because YES! they are warmer! For everyday winter, mittens are inconvenient, it's true. But the solution is the flappy mittens with which you can fold back the part that covers your fingers. Those, I love.

I would have to agree with you on that one, Stacey! I have noticed the same thing.
