Wool Glove Inserts
These are US Army cold weather glove inserts: thin knit wool liners worn inside an outer shell glove, such as a leather work or shooting glove, to add warmth. They also work on their own on cool days when a full winter glove would be too bulky. Soldiers, hunters, campers and anyone who works outdoors through the colder months carry them as a warm base layer that keeps the fingers free to work.
Features
- Knit Wool Construction — Wool holds warmth well and keeps insulating even when it picks up some moisture from sweat or snow.
- Insert Profile — The thin knit is made to slide inside a larger shell glove, so you can layer for cold without changing your outer gloves.
- Five-Finger Design — Separate fingers let you work zippers, buckles, straps and controls without taking the gloves off.
- Ribbed Knit Cuff — A long, stretchy rib-knit cuff grips the wrist and tucks under a jacket sleeve to keep cold air out.
- Wear Alone Or Layered — Use them by themselves in mild weather, or as the warm inner layer under a shell when temperatures drop.
- Two Colors — Offered in a tan shade and in black, matching the colors shown in the photographs.
- US Army Issue — These are genuine government-issue gloves made for the military, not a commercial lookalike.
US Army Issue
These inserts come from the US Army's cold weather clothing system. In that system the wool glove is the warm inner layer and a separate shell glove handles abrasion and wind. Because they were made for military use, they have the plain, functional knit that soldiers rely on in the field. Surplus collectors, reenactors and practical users pick them for the same reason: they are authentic issue kit built to do a simple job.

Hands Stay WarmBeen using these under my D-3A leather shells on early morning deer stands and honestly they do exactly what theyre supposed to, keep the cold out without making your hands feel like youre wearing oven mitts so you can still work a trigger or buckle a strap no problem. The wool and nylon blend is the real deal, even when my hands got a little sweaty they still felt warm which was a nice surprise. One thing ill say is they do have a slight scratchy feel right out of the bag, took a wash or two before they felt really comfortable against my skin for long periods. But for the price and the fact that these are ACTUAL mil-spec issue, I cant really complain that much.
Warm even when slightly damp, wool blend really works
Thin enough to layer under a shell glove without losing dexterityA little scratchy at first, need a couple washes to soften up

Winter GlovesI slipped these coyote inserts inside my old leather gloves for a long walk in the snow and my hands stayed warm the entire time without getting clammy. They feel thick but not bulky which is nice. The wool is a bit scratchy on my knuckles after a few hours though.
Keeps hands toasty in freezing temps,
A little itchy after long wear

Perfect liner for my D-3As, warm even when dampGot these to wear under my D-3A leather shells and they're exactly what I needed for winter range trips. The Large fits true to size - I'm about an 8.5 inch hand measurement and they slide right in without bunching up. These are genuine surplus with the NSN markings, not some knockoff. Been using them about 3 months now in temps down to 25°F and my hands stay toasty. I machine washed them once on delicate and air dried no shrinkage issues.
Way better than the cheap acrylic liners I had before.

PracticalThese are solid military surplus glove inserts that work really well. The wool keeps your hands warm and the dual purpose design is practical. Already used them on camping trips and they perform well in cold weather.
