Kokatat's Hydrus 2.5 Paddle Mitts are pogies made of Hydrus 2.5 fabric as a waterproof/breathable shell instead of neoprene as most pogies are. The inside has fleece lining on one side for added warmth and comfort (no chaffing on your knuckles). This fleece lining is on the smooth side which one would normally have on top; the other side has hook and loop closure to keep them wrapped around the paddle shaft. The photo shows how the elastic at the wrist scrunches up the fabric to reduce air exchange which makes them warmer than if they were loose fitting there, but due to this elastic you will need to use your teeth to pull the second one on.

One size fits all which makes them a good piece of emergency gear for trip leaders to carry. Because they are not neoprene, they or light, pack small, and dry quickly.
