ROUND 1
The Water Test
Waterproof and resistant to stains, no matter what the stickiest ingredients are thrown at it, the silicone glove easily rinses off in the sink or dishwasher, ready for the next round. The fabric oven mitt, no matter how hard it tries, can't dodge the punishing stains that stick to it like glue.
The round goes to: Heat Shield

ROUND 2
Dexterity
The Heat Shield floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. With 5 fingers it can easily grasp and hold the smallest objects for trouble free food preparation. Pulled pork was never so easy. The fabric oven mitt, well... looks like and performs like a boxing glove. With one thumb and four fingers tied behind it's back, the only thing it can do is take out the roast.
The round goes to: Heat Shield

ROUND 5
Grip
With a raised textured surface, plus the rubber-like material, the Heat Shield gets a good grip on all slippery surfaces to prevent accidents in the kitchen. The fabric mittens on the other hand are often smooth, glossy and slippery. Not an ideal situation when handling hot bowls that don't have handles.
The round goes to: Heat Shield

The Winner
The winner by KO, Heat Shield!
