The submitted sample will be returned as per your request. Style 706183 is a glove constructed of a camouflage-printed finely knitted polyester fabric with a mini-dot coating covering the fingertips to the wrist on the outer surface of the palmside. The glove features fourchettes and a self-fabric cuff with “Rocky” embroidered on the backside. The essential character of the glove is imparted by the coated polyester palmside fabric.
