Lining Comparison
Fleece: The most commonly used glove liner, made of napped brushed cotton.
3M Thinsulate®: The warmest thin insulation on the market, Thinsulate® has about 1.5 times more warmth than down feather lining, and absorbs less than 1% of its own weight in water which allows it to retain its insulating ability even in damp conditions.
Pile: This synthetic wool is popular because of its relatively low cost and realistic similarity to wool.
Foam/Thermo: With the comfort of a fleece layer and an additional two layers of polyester and polyurethane foam, this lining offers the most value for warmth insulation.
