Kamaasa Shoten's latest creation is a meticulously crafted mitten born from a collaboration between three companies: Johnbull, known for its Okayama-based uniform label 'makerhood'; and tet., a Kagawa-based glove maker.
The exterior is made of highly durable denim, with a black denim finish that blends seamlessly into any kitchen and develops a richer texture with use. The interior utilizes a special material, which, combined with the outer layer, provides enhanced heat resistance.
The palm area features Technora®, a high-strength, heat-resistant, and cut-resistant special fiber often used in firefighter gloves, capable of withstanding heat up to approximately 420°C.
The inside of the fabric is bonded with Sontara®, a non-woven fabric with a soft texture, high density, and low linting properties. This construction enhances insulation.
The three-finger design fits the hand snugly, making it easy to grip and hold, allowing for safe handling of pan handles and woks. Further consideration has been given to the ambidextrous design for both left and right hands and an easy-on, easy-off shape.
These mittens are sure to be favored by professionals and home cooks alike.
