Abstract: A heat resistant glove for use in foundries or the like and for use in handling extremely hot objects such as molten metal ladles or the like. The glove has an insulating portion which fits between the liner of the glove and the outside glove. More particularly, the insulating porton is comprised of one piece and which is formed as a double pocket so that it can be simply slipped over both the index finger and the thumb of the liner before the liner is inserted in the outer glove. Thus, the gripping area of the hand is provided with additional insulative protection as are both the index finger and thumb. The double pocket portion is thus firmly secured between the glove liner and the outer glove without the need for sewing the insulating material in place or otherwise affixing it to the liner or the glove.
