Pressure Suit, A7-L, Eisele, Training

This spacesuit was worn by astronaut Donn Eisele who used it during training sessions.

Training suits were identical to those worn during flight and were designed to provide a life sustaining environment for the astronaut during periods of extra vehicular activity or during unpressurized spacecraft operation. It permitted maximum mobility and was designed to be worn with relative comfort for up to 115 hours in conjunction with the liquid cooling garment. It was also capable of being worn for 14 days in an unpressurized mode.

The spacesuit was made by the International Latex Corporation with the designation A-7L and was constructed in the Intra-vehicular or IV configuration.
