Rothco G.I. Type Flame and Heat Resistant Flight Gloves

The Rothco G.I. Type Flame and Heat Resistant Flight Gloves are tactical hand protection built for pilots, law enforcement, firefighters, first responders, active-duty personnel, and outdoor enthusiasts who need flame and heat resistant coverage without sacrificing hand mobility. The palm and fingers are constructed from sheepskin leather, and the gloves extend to cover the wrist. Available in Black, AR 670-1 Coyote Brown, Olive Drab, and Foliage Green in sizes 7 through 12, depending on color.

Flame and Heat Resistant Construction

The Rothco Flight Gloves are made with flame and heat resistant fabric and thread throughout, paired with a sheepskin leather palm and fingers. That combination means resistance is built into the material itself rather than added as a separate liner, keeping the construction straightforward and the glove light at 0.25 lb per pair. For anyone working around open flame, hot surfaces, or aircraft environments, having resistance built into the fabric reduces the risk of the glove contributing to a hazard rather than mitigating one.

Dexterity Through Leather Construction

Sheepskin leather covers the palm and fingers, the areas that take the most contact and friction during work. Leather at these points maintains tactile feedback and grip while adding durability against abrasion. The design keeps the glove functional for tasks requiring hand control, such as operating controls, handling equipment, or working with tools, rather than trading dexterity for bulk.

Wrist Coverage for Additional Protection

The Rothco Flight Gloves extend past the hand to cover the wrist, closing the gap between glove cuff and sleeve that can otherwise leave skin exposed. For cold weather use or environments with heat and flame exposure, wrist coverage reduces the unprotected area without requiring a separate gaiter or wrap. These gloves are suited for cold weather conditions.

Who This Is For and Isn't

The AR 670-1 Coyote Brown color option is appropriate for Army uniform compliance where that standard applies.

Common Questions

What sizes are available, and does the range differ by color?

What colors are available, and is the Coyote Brown AR 670-1 compliant?

The Rothco Flight Gloves are available in Black, AR 670-1 Coyote Brown, Olive Drab, and Foliage Green. The Coyote Brown variant is specifically labeled as AR 670-1 compliant, making it suitable for Army uniform wear where that regulation applies.

Are these gloves certified or just described as flame resistant?

The Rothco Flight Gloves carry ISO certification and are built with flame and heat resistant fabric and thread. The specific ISO standard is not stated. Buyers who require gloves certified to a particular aviation or occupational safety standard should confirm whether this product meets that requirement before purchasing.

Are these gloves suitable for cold weather?

The Rothco G.I. Type Flight Gloves are cold weather gloves. The sheepskin leather palm and fingers and the extended wrist coverage contribute to warmth and coverage in cold conditions.

What does the palm construction feel like, and how much do the gloves weigh?

The palm and fingers of the Rothco Flight Gloves are constructed from sheepskin leather, which provides durability and abrasion resistance at the highest-contact areas while maintaining tactile feedback. The rest of the glove uses flame and heat resistant fabric. Each pair weighs 0.25 lb.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise

When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.

1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry

Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.

We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.

2. Best price, guaranteed

If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.

Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.

3. Free fitment consultation

Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.

4. Trusted by thousands of customers

Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.

Price Match Guarantee — Terms

  • You must have purchased the item from our website before requesting the price match.
  • Discounted items and "free with purchase" items are not eligible.
  • The item must be in stock on the competitor's website at the time of your request.
  • The price match is valid for six months from the date of your purchase.
  • The competitor must be an authorized dealer of the product. Auction sites (eBay, Overstock), discounters, and gray-market resellers do not qualify.
  • The competitor must operate an online store. Brick-and-mortar-only retailers do not qualify.
  • Price match applies to the item price plus shipping. Sales tax is excluded.

To request a price match, email us a link to the product on our site and the same product on the competitor's site within six months of purchase. We'll process the refund.
