| Abstract: |
A glove having three layers, an outer covering layer of leather, cloth or the like, an inner lining of an insulating material such as cloth, wool, fur and an intermediate member of a thin plastic having microscopically minute pores through which gas may pass but not liquids, e.g. water. The outer and inner layers are formed into gloves as by sewing. The intermediate layer of, for example, extremely thin polyurethane, is fabricated by heat sealing the edges of the front and back blank halves together to form an integral glove member. The intermediate glove layer is telescoped into the outer glove layer and similarly, the inner lining is telescoped into the intermediate layer. Only the outer and inner layers are stitched together at the wrist portion leaving a free-standing, breathable, waterproof intermediate layer therebetween which is integral and unattached. The resulting glove structure is water resistant and air permeable.

I claim:
1. A method for fabricating an article of clothing of the type adapted to surround a portion of the body of the wearer, comprising the steps of:
- forming an inner layer in the general given shape and size of the body portion;
- forming an outer layer having substantially said given shape and being slightly larger than said given size;
- forming an intermediate layer of gas permeable, liquid impermeable material, said intermediate layer being substantially said given shape and being of a size necessary to fit between said inner and outer layers;
- inserting said intermediate layer into the outer layer;
- inserting said inner layer into the outer layer so as to sandwich the intermediate layer therebetween; and
- joining the inner and outer layers without interrupting the integrity of the body of the intermediate layer, or bonding same to said intermediate layer.
