# Galactic Oven Mitts This Star Wars Cooking Accessory is Made to Resemble a Black Armor Gauntlet By David Ingram | Published 2015-10-27 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oven-mitt References: [geekologie](http://geekologie.com/2015/10/just-let-me-take-the-ewok-out-of-the-ove.php) & [thinkgeek](http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/ilsi/) [Bake cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yumyum-real-baking-oven) with the power of the "Force" with this Star Wars 'Darth Vader Silicone Oven Mitt.' Available from ThinkGeek, this officially licensed piece of [Star Wars merchandise](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ray-ban-star-wars) is made from black heat-resistant silicone that has been decorated to resemble the gauntlets worn by Darth Vader. The oven mitts also feature special ridges underneath the fingers for improved grip, a built-in hole for hanging up the glove and the Imperial logo worn by [Stormtrooper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-toys-1) soldiers from the films decorating the palm of the glove. The oven glove is only made to be worn on the user's right hand, but should easily and comfortably fit most hand sizes. There are also no details saying that this glove utilizes the Force, but at least you won't burn your hand in the kitchen. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Star Wars Cooking Accessories:** The popularity of Star Wars-themed cooking accessories provides opportunities for innovative products and designs. - **Heat-resistant Silicone Oven Mitts:** The demand for heat-resistant silicone oven mitts opens up potential for new designs and improved functionality. - **Officially Licensed Merchandise:** The market for officially licensed merchandise presents opportunities to create unique and appealing products for fans. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Kitchenware:** The kitchenware industry can explore collaborations with popular franchises to create unique and themed products. - **Home Goods:** The home goods industry can leverage the popularity of Star Wars to develop a range of related products for consumers. - **E-commerce:** The e-commerce industry can capitalize on the demand for licensed merchandise by offering a wide range of products to consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Circular Oven Mitts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circular-oven-mitts.md) - [Hand-Knit Sci-Fi Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handknit-scifi-sculpture.md) - [Leather-Made Outdoor Oven Mitts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snow-peak-campers-mitten.md) - [Collaboration Sci-Fi Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-oreo-cookies.md) - [Sci-Fi Smartphone Grips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popsockets-dimensionals-star-wars.md) - [Sci-Fi Bath Soaps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-bath-soap.md) - [Dark Sci-Fi Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/darc-sport.md) - [Sci-Fi-Themed Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dark-side-hot-sauce.md) - [Sci Fi-Themed Popcorn Machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/death-star-popcorn.md)
