Word origin
The word 'mitts' originated from Middle English 'mitte', which in turn came from Old English 'mitte', meaning 'a covering for the hand'. The term has been used since the 14th century to refer to hand coverings without finger separations. Mitts have been traditionally used for warmth and protection in cold weather.
