Abstract: The article critically reviews some significant trends attempted in enhancing the thermal comfort of fabrics. One attempt has been directed towards providing protective clothing for workers in harsh weather conditions of extreme cold climate. It aimed to determine how the people working in cold harsh climatic regions protect themselves against cold and the sufficiency, and the selection criteria of the garments. Basic thermal insulation of the reported clothing has been estimated.
