Abstract: |
The disclosure relates to an improved sport glove construction comprising loosely but securely connected inner and outer glove shells of different constructions, each contributing significant and desirable characteristics to the combination. The inner glove is constructed of a highly elastic, stretchable material, so constituted as to be received tightly over the entire hand of the wearer, snugly enclosing and conforming to the individual fingers and thumb, as well as the palm and back areas of the hand. The construction of the elastic inner glove shell is such as to provide a secure yet comfortable feel to the glove. The elastic inner glove is entirely enveloped by a second or outer glove of a material and construction selected to provide appropriate gripping and other characteristics. The outer glove may be of a somewhat elastic material, such as knitted fabric, but may also be of a relatively nonelastic material, such as leather, vinyl or the like, or may be a combination of materials. The inner and outer glove shells are attached securely but loosely at selected areas, to permit easy donning and doffing of the glove while at the same time accommodating the necessary degree of elastic expansion of the inner glove shell relative to the outer shell when the glove is applied to the hand.

First Claim:
Show all 13 claims |
I claim:
1. A sport glove or the like, comprising
- (a) an elastic, contractile inner glove shell for enveloping substantially the entire hand, including the fingers and thumb,
- (b) said inner glove shell being of knitted construction and being of such materials and of such construction as to accommodate substantial elastic stretch upon insertion of the hand and to fit snugly about the hand, to provide a secure fit for the sport glove,
- (c) said inner glove shell having relatively limited and inadequate gripping characteristics for typical sport glove use,
- (d) an outer glove shell surrounding and interfitting with said inner glove shell,
- (e) said outer glove shell being of a material and construction to provide gripping characteristics suitable for use in sporting activities,
- (f) the elastic properties of the outer glove shell being of secondary significance in relation to the gripping characteristics thereof and in relation to the contractile elastic characteristics of the inner glove shell,
- (g) means loosely secured said inner and outer glove shells together at limited areas enabling donning and doffing of the assembled glove shells as a single glove while simultaneously accommodating substantial elastic expansion and contraction of the inner glove shell relative to the outer shell,
- (h) said securing means including means for securing the respective glove shells at the tips and quirks of the thumb and finger stalls and in the cuff area,
- (i) whereby the inner glove shell and outer glove shell each provide characteristics significant for use in sporting activities in a unitary structure.
