[A] form fitting glove that is comprised of a tri-laminate fabric with a nylon face that incorporates a velour fleece next-to-skin layer.

CONT

The lightweight thermal/mortar glove is to be used as a liner with the arctic mitt during extreme cold conditions and it provides thermal protection as a stand alone glove for a short period of cold weather operations. As a stand alone glove it has to provide sufficient dexterity to operate weapons, communications equipment, and vehicles.

OBS

The palm is re-inforced with level two touchdown goatskin leather to provide increased gripping ability and abrasion resistance.
