LIMB DIFFERENT SET - SIZE 5
LIMB DIFFERENT SET - SIZE 5
mimiTENS has been making mittens for kids with limb differences since 2015.
It has been the most joyous learning process.
This year, we will have you choose what you need, rather than us sending you too many of something you are not going to use.
Please select what you need for size and style preference.
You can choose a mitten with a thumb for one hand and a flat mitten for the other.
Up to you.
Please choose away! And if you have any questions, just shoot us a message at
hello@mimitens.com.

FABRIC CONTENT:
OUTSIDE: mimiTENS MITTENS are three layers:
1) 420 denier water-repellent nylon.
2) 200 gram 3M Thinsulate Insulation
3) Organic cotton/bamboo fleece that is custom knit for us here in Toronto.
mimiTENS SLEEVES:
Our sleeves are custom knit for us in the USA. They are a cotton and Lycra blend.
CARE:
Wash cold and either hang to try or tumble dry low.
If you want, you can turn the sleeve inside out and then put the mittens on your heat vent over night. That works really well!
DO NOT IRON. DO NOT DRY CLEAN.

LIMB DIFFERENT SET Qs and As
Q1: What if we need a different size flat mittens for the limb difference? Say my kid's hand is a size three, but the limb different arm is closer to a size one? Can I have the size one flat?
A1: Absolutely. And to be honest, this is a scenario we see often. Just make a note of it in your order or if you prefer to send us an email, please do.
Q2: What if I need to order just a flat mitten?
A2: Yes, there is that option as well. The flat mittens are listed separately in the limb differences mittens set section of the website.
Q3: I am part of a community group that supports limb differences. Do you do bulk orders?
A3: Hit us up and let's see what we can do?
Q4: I do not have a limb difference but I have a disability that would be helped with these mittens. May I order them?
A4: I have heard from people with severe arthritis and other circumstances where mittens are uncomfortable. If you think that these can help you, please go ahead and order.
Q5: "Are you worried that people will take advantage of your offer for the free flat mitten?"
A5: I put this question in quotes because someone asked me this and it was a bit surprising. I am not too worried about it at the moment. I am including this so that you can see that people are actually kind and looking out for me too.
Q6: Why is shipping so expensive in Canada?
A6: We are a gigantic country with a relatively small population.
We have to ship limb different mittens with tracked shipping because the package is too big for standard mail. There is a weight and dimension thresh-hold that sending three mittens exceeds for standard shipping.
Q7: How long does it take to have these ship?
A7: In order to manage the inventory, we need a few extra days to get these out. We are pre-making the flat mittens and adding the sleeves as we received the requests. Please give us up to a week because the factory needs to schedule time to do these. Thanks.
