Kitchen Micro Mitts

Our kitchen micro mitts collection brings together compact, practical heat-protection mitts designed for everyday microwave and hob use. Smaller and more nimble than full oven gloves, micro mitts are the go-to choice for quick tasks like removing mugs from the microwave, lifting pan lids, and handling smaller hot items.
Micro mitts are the practical, everyday heat protection option for the kitchen. Smaller and more nimble than a full double oven glove, they are the right choice for quick kitchen tasks — taking something out of the microwave, lifting a pan lid, handling a hot mug or small bowl. Most micro mitts feature a heat-resistant padded inner with a cotton or cotton-blend outer that is durable and washable. They are often sold in pairs or as a set of two, which makes them particularly practical as you always have one clean and ready to use. Like most of our kitchen textiles, micro mitts are often available as part of a coordinated collection alongside matching tea towels, oven gloves, and aprons.

Kitchen Micro Mitts

Micro mitts are the practical, everyday companion for any kitchen. Smaller and more nimble than a full-sized oven glove, they are designed for the quick, everyday tasks that make up most of the actual cooking you do — taking something out of the microwave, lifting a pan lid, handling a hot mug, or grabbing a small bowl from the oven. Our collection covers a range of designs from simple practical options through to printed and novelty character designs that bring the same personality to your micro mitts as to the rest of your kitchen textiles.

Micro mitts are often sold in pairs and make a practical addition to any kitchen drawer. Browse our full kitchen textiles range to find coordinated sets that include matching tea towels, aprons, and oven gloves.
