Abstract: |
An improved abrasion and cut resistant surface is provided for work gloves, work shoes and like wearing apparel. The surface of the invention provides a porous surface particularly useful in work environments where it is necessary for a workman to use gloves, but which gloves are breathable and have moisture absorbing properties. The surface of the invention is a foam surface laminated to a substrate. The foam, prior to lamination, may be foamed with varying amounts of air depending upon the degree of abrasion resistance required. The foaming may be by mechanical or chemical means.

What is claimed is:
1. A method for producing a glove with a breathable, inexpensive, abrasion-resistant surface, characterized by the steps of
- (a) selecting in a first selecting step a glove liner comprised of a web which is a member selected from the group consisting of a fibrous non-woven web, a woven web, and a knitted web;
- (b) selecting in a second selecting step a material to be applied as a foamed layer to at least one surface of said glove liner from said first selecting step;
- (c) foaming said member selected from said second selecting step to an air content within the range of between about 40 and 95 percent;
- (d) applying said member from said foaming step to said at least one surface of said glove liner; and
