We were started by a group of snowboarders back in the 80's in Sandpoint, Idaho. Nothing on the market was able to take a beating and still keep people's hands warm and dry. The result of a lot of research and development was a mitt with a solid design and necessary features called the Batmitt. The design became popular with snowboarders all up and down the west coast (for more on Batmitts, click here) Later, the design evolved into several different mitt designs including the Winger, Half Pipe, Split Finger (Lobster Claw), & Trigger Finger models.
Batmitts were worn by some of snowboarding's greatest legends including Tex Davenport & Jeff Fulton, both members of the famed Baker Hardcore. Other huge names in the industry that played a role in research & development on the Batmitt include Anton Pogue, Jay Liska and Nate Holland.
Batwaves stopped production for a time, but we have been back in production since 2007. We currently manufacture Batmitts and Wingers, as well as a new Park Model mitt. These are the same mitts that the early legendary riders and countless others developed over a period of 20 years. Del Sanborn, one of the people responsible for the original design and manufacturing of the Batmitt, has played an integral role in getting these mitts back into production. Del has assisted in ensuring that our mitts surpass the standards set by Batwaves during the 80's & 90's.
Our mitts are made in Sandpoint, Idaho with materials that are entirely made in the USA. Manufacturing the mitt locally allows us to ensure quality and consistency. Purchasing our materials from US manufacturers ensures we are putting the best quality materials into our product.
