They are the same color as a flight suit and made of nylon, rayon and cotton. They cover the front of the legs but are open behind the knee. They alos cover the lower abdomen. They have a hose attached at the hip that plugs into the aircraft air conditioning supply air at the G valve. The G valve has weights to open and close air portals as G are experienced. The air flows into pockets sewn into the G suit inflating it from the bottom to the top pressing the blood back up into the torso so it is available for the heart to continue pumping it to the brain and other organs. The G suit looks like a strange pair of pants when laid out flat and is designed to be worn like cowboy chaps.
