ABSTRACT:
It is an object of the invention to provide thermal insulation for the hands or feet of aquatic sportsmen such as windsurfers, water skiers, or divers, while, in the case of the hand, allowing a natural grip to be retained. In order to achieve this a glove or foot cover 1 of thin and flexible waterproof material is provided with a wrist or ankle seal 7 which sealingly engages a wrist or ankle seal 6 of a suit 3, such as a dry suit. In order to avoid pressure on the wearer's wrist or ankle, and allow warm air from within the suit to circulate under the glove or foot cover, a band 5 of resilient plastics material is worn over the wrist or ankle and the seals 6 and 7 are stretched over the band.
