Gloves and Mittens for Older Girls
Teen girls' gloves and mittens for ages 8 to 15 sit together here, so you can pick the pair that suits how she spends her winter. Gloves let her carry a bag, zip a coat and use her fingers on the way to school. Mittens keep the fingers together in one pocket of warm air, which helps on the coldest mornings and at the bus stop.
Girls' gloves at age 12 or 13 should leave a little room at the fingertips, as hands grow quickly at this age. Younger girls often prefer mittens: girls' mittens at age 9 or 10 are easier to pull on over a coat sleeve. Sizes for gloves and mittens are not given in centimetres, so check the size on the product page against her hand. Read the care label before washing, and keep a spare pair for wet days.
Your questions answered
MINOTI sells gloves and mittens for girls aged 8 to 15, for school runs and cold winter days, with the size of each pair for older, growing hands shown on its product page.
Should an 8-year-old girl wear gloves or mittens to school?
Mittens are the warmer pick for an 8-year-old on a cold walk, while gloves are better if she needs her fingers for a bag or a zip. Keeping one pair of each in her school bag covers both.
How do I pick glove sizes for a girl between two age bands?
Go for the larger band. Gloves that are too short at the fingertips feel cold within 10 minutes, while a little extra length is hardly noticed. Check her hand against the size on the product page.
