Abstract
Thermal properties of ovine clothing leathers were determined using the Ala mbeta T675 device. Thermal resistance and thermal penetration coefficient w ere calculated. These parameters explain the insulating properties and the warm cool feel of leather on short contact with human skin. The measurement s were carried out in three different areas of retanned and non-retanned le athers and the effect of the eight retanning agents used was discussed.
