Mountain Equipment Redline Mitt

Their warmest mitt, purpose-built for expeditions above 7000 metres and journeys into Earth’s most unforgiving climates.

The Redline Mitt stands as their most insulating handwear, specifically engineered for extreme sub-zero conditions and prolonged exposure to cold. It has been rigorously tested across the globe’s loftiest mountain ranges and during the most demanding polar ventures. This mitt delivers vital protection for mountaineers, alpinists, and adventurous skiers navigating the world’s coldest frontiers.

By fusing lofty 800-fill power down with highly compressible PrimaLoft® insulation and a fully windproof, water-resistant DRILITE® Loft shell, the Redline ensures remarkable warmth and defence against the elements. Its long gauntlet design, featuring an oversized opening, enables swift and easy layering over jacket sleeves. A soft synthetic pile lining makes donning and removing the mitts effortless—even with moisture on the hands—thus reducing exposure to harsh conditions. Both the PrimaLoft® fill and synthetic pile continue to perform thermally when wet, a crucial advantage for those operating in severe cold.

Beyond exceptional insulation, the Redline Mitt also offers refined practicality. Its pre-curved construction for the mitt and thumb, along with a Pittards® Armortan® Goatskin leather palm, ensures grip security and dexterity for those handling axes, poles, or jumars. It is an impressively warm yet functional mitt, tailored for high-altitude climbs, extreme cold skiing, and long-distance polar travel—ideal for the most committed explorers.
