What kind of material would be best for a liner.I'm open to taking a few rabbit pelts and using them as a liner or sewing a liner. Also, what would be the best type of material for the palm area? “We will visit the Holy Land and see those places hallowed by the footsteps of the Savior,” -Lincoln

Other than that factory tanned moosehide,or cowhide for the palm and thumb. The best(warmest) liner is heavy wool duffle-also expensive.Rabbit skins(they are not durable and shed)or any other fur for a liner is no good in my experience. Sheep shearling can be used,or what they call melton-an imitation shearling. Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
