Left Hand Thermojoint Evolution, SS1997

The top end of Left Hand was the Thermojoint, the jackets claimed to give protection against nuclear radiation although no one has ever tested this claim. Well, you wouldn't would you :-) Its main characteristics are total resistance to water and wear, and has the appearance of a vinyl type material, they also had double taped seams to keep the weather out. As Osti had moved away from the sportswear company the Thermojoint was produced by an Italian company called its-artea. The jackets would often look plain but on closer inspection would be filled with small details like mobile phone pockets, Velcro adjusters, and fold away hoods. The branding was always more discreet with the heat embossed logo on the left arm and on the zip pulls.
