A thermal glove includes a cap that is connected with the glove body by a flexible strip for displacement from a stored position adjacent the back of the glove to an operative position in which the cap encloses the finger portions of the glove. The cap contains an interior pocket for receiving a heating device, thereby to heat the glove finger portions. The back portion of the glove body includes a storage pocket for partially receiving the cap and the flexible strip when the cap is displaced to the stored position adjacent to the back portion of the glove body.
