Our Story
Mittens designed for generations.
When kids feel comfortable and confident outdoors, they love winter more—and get more out of it. That’s what inspired Chopper Mill. We’re building the world’s best mitten company for kids, crafting products worthy of the amazing people they protect.
Our mittens are designed for generations of outdoor fun, made to withstand anything northern winters throw at us. Our children's Chopper Mill mittens have a velcro patch so you are able to hand it down to the next child. Then, they can get their own name patch, and keep on using those well-loved choppers!
All children deserve to be comfortable and confident in nature.
Chopper Mill mittens are made with premium materials including 3M Thinsulate, Hipora, goat leather and waterproof performance fabric.
Our product manufacturing is managed by a Minnesota manufacturer who has a United States employed manager on-site in the factory in China. This individual oversees all operations and production of our product. Additionally, the team in Minnesota is in constant contact with that manager to ensure that our high ethical standards are met.
In addition to internal audits, 3rd-party organizational audits are also done throughout the year to ensure the highest quality working conditions. They are there to ensure lawful, ethical, humane & safe manufacturing practices.
All customization is done locally in Minneapolis, Minnesota where we hand cut, sew, and stamp every patch that goes on your child's Chopper Mill mitten.
Choppers Gone Missing
“Where’s your other mitten?” said every parent on this planet. Because missing mittens happen, we created the re/PAIR® plan. The first Chopper Mill you lose, we will mail you a replacement free, including shipping!
If another goes missing, you can always purchase a single replacement anytime without buying a new pair. A single or a pair, we got you.
