Abstract
A thermal regulating sports glove or shoe incorporating an electrostatic field within the fiber structure of the natural or synthetic leather, from which the glove or shoe is formed. The electrostatic field causes the water molecules in the wearer's perspiration to remain in a constant state of agitation thereby breaking down the bond of surface tension of the normal liquid state of water into free water molecules. Free water molecules are then pulled through the natural or synthetic leather by a magnetic process to the surface, where they pass into the air as evaporated water. This evaporation on the outer surface of the glove or shoe, which is now acting much as 'second layer of skin', serves to regulate the temperature of the wearer's hand or foot almost as if the evaporation were taking place on the wearer's own skin surface.
