The storm flap extends across both of the fly openings, while the outer shell tab is removably positioned between the two layers of the storm flap to provide removable attachments between the storm flap and the outer shell tab.

Multilayered protective trouser

There is disclosed a novel sleeve attachment of a multilayered protective coat comprised of an outer shell and an inner thermal liner, the sleeve attachment including a detachable, innersleeve wristlet assembly comprised of a wristlet and a flexible innersleeve circumferentially secured to the wristlet. The flexible innersleeve is configured to form a plurality of telescoping annular layers, and has secured thereto a fastening means for cooperation with a fastening means circumferentially secured to the sleeve of the outer shell for establishing a removable, circumferential attachment between the flexible innersleeve and the sleeve of the outer shell. The novel attachment provides continuous thermal protection within the coaxial combination of outer shell sleeve, the inner thermal liner sleeve, the flexible innersleeve and the wristlet, notwithstanding relative axial movement between the wristlet and such sleeves. Also, the flexible innersleeve acts as a barrier to any debris or water from entering the coat by way of spaces between the wristlet and the sleeve of the outer shell.
