Merino mittens, straight from Sweden
NOTE: Mittens run slightly large. If you’re on the cusp between two sizes, we suggest you choose the smaller size.
These chunky wool mittens are warm enough for the coldest winter evenings. Each pair is built with either double-layer merino wool or a patented four-layer construction that combines a merino wool outer shell with two layers of insulation and a soft tricot inner lining. This tried and tested system guarantees toasty fingers, whether you’re exploring a frozen fjord or catching the Metro to the office. In fact, it’s so good that it carries a warning triangle with the ‘3 Vs’: “Varning: varma vantar” (“warning: warm gloves!”). Some models also feature stitched palms in hard-wearing suede for a more secure grip and enhanced durability.

The Ringdans design is inspired by a famous Swedish song, The Maiden in the Ring, written by Stockholm-based composer and artist Hugo Alfvén (1872–1960). Öjbro’s founder and designer Åse Öjbro recalls: “I remember so well when my family and I danced around the Christmas tree during my childhood – all hand in hand, we children, our mothers and fathers, grandparents, uncles, grandmothers and grandparents”. This warm and vibrant pattern draws on those joyful emotions from childhood, evoking nostalgic memories of strong family ties and togetherness.
