The Lexicon

The Lexicon preserves the language of the Lifestyle — its words, concepts and traditions. It records meaning; it never prescribes practice. Where usage varies between Houses or lineages, each is set down with equal respect.

Equipment

Pup Mitts

Mitts that immobilise the hands into a paw-like shape.

Definition

Pup Mitts are gloves or mitts that enclose the hand into a fist or paw shape, restricting fine manipulation and encouraging the wearer to interact with the world in a more paw-like way. They are a signature piece of Puppy Gear and contribute strongly to headspace.

Historical background

Pup Mitts developed alongside hoods and tails as Puppy Play gear traditions matured.

Discussion

Fit and duration of wear affect comfort. Communities generally advise reasonable breaks and awareness of circulation.
