Hi Malcolm,
I think they are British, they are sort of mittens,but with a trigger finger.

Hello Aaron,

Thanks for the interesting reply.

I also think they are British but they do not have any markings or labels etc?

Kind regards, Malcolm.

Hi Malcolm, these are almost always devoid of any markings. I have only seen makers markings etc on the paper label which held bundles of these together.

Cheers, Ade.

Hello Ade,

Do these gloves have a specific function or are they multi purpose mittens?

Kind regards, Malcolm.

[Adrian Stevenson]

Multi purpose item, but mainly associated with the Infantry. I have always know them as "Trigger Mittens"

I do have a pair of these in my collection, but I don't have any pics.

Cheers, Ade.
