Abstract
A fabric member is stored in a transparent tube having a spray bottle of treatment fluid as one airtight end closure and a vial of paste or solid adjunct material as the other airtight end closure. Together, the tube, vial and bottle define a storage, environmental control and treatment container for the fabric member, particularly an athletic glove. In a second embodiment, a removable airtight end cap is substituted for the vial.
