The Tie That Binds

Smitten the Hand-Holding Mitten

Well, aren’t you two lovebirds just the cutest? Always together. Joined at the hip. The picture of romantic bliss.

Excuse us while we never stop barfing.

If you must foist your PDA on the rest of us this Valentine’s season, take it inside, please. Inside the Smitten, to be exact. The heart-shaped two-hand mitten allows you to hold hands without exposing your delicate, love-drenched fingers (ew!) to the elements. Guaranteed to keep you warm and fuzzy inside and out, the polar-fleece pouch features two cuffed openings: one for you, one for your mate. Perfect for strolls on cold days and amorous outdoor escapades. (No details, please.) And don’t worry — the bold red color assures that you’ll still be alerting the world to your undying, jealousy-provoking love for one another.

Because that’s obviously half the fun.
