The gloves give full protection, having double thickness of material in front and back. Inserts in the sides of the fingers and a shaped, inset thumb provide a comfortable fit.

The gloves extend well over the wrist, giving important protection to that area, and are elasticated at the front of the wrist. For comfort and surer handling a knitted Nomex fabric is used, rather than a woven one.

The outer layer of the gloves is red. Gloves and Gauntlets are supplied in three sizes medium, large and small. Gauntlets are identical to gloves from finger to wrist. From the wrist there is a sleeve of woven red Nomex, extending to the elbow where it is elasticated, to secure it and to avoid an open entry.

A strip of red knitted Nomex is inset into the sleeve to give some degree of stretch, assisting donning and giving a ‘snug’ fit.
