Lightweight, waterproof, and straightforward, the Odyssey Mitts are a practical shell layer for serious mountain days where you need adaptable weather protection.
Mountain Equipment says
A fully waterproof shell mitt for wet and windy days in the mountains. A fully taped DRILITE® fabric shell makes the Odyssey Mitt an ideal addition to your pack in wet and windy weather, working alone or over a pair of fleece gloves in colder conditions. A Suregrip palm gives a secure grip on poles or an ice axe.
Our Verdict
The Mountain Equipment Odyssey Mitts are a dependable shell layer for wet and windy conditions, designed to slip over an insulating layer as part of a versatile glove system. With no insulation, these mitts are purpose-built to keep water and wind at bay, thanks to their DRILITE 3-layer fabric with fully taped seams. This construction makes them light and low in bulk, perfect for packing away in case of sudden weather shifts.
The oversized fit allows for comfortable layering, while the gauntlet design and single-handed drawcord closure help seal out the elements. A Suregrip palm adds an element of control, whether gripping poles or wielding an ice axe, and the removable wrist tethers are a thoughtful touch for security in rugged terrain.
