You are talking about mittens. And yes, mittens keep hands warmer because the heat is kept in better when there is no separation of the fingers. Most people in the US prefer gloves (the five fingered kind) for ease of movement and better ability to use their hands. Mittens are usually found on children or in the coldest parts of the US.
