Abstract: |
A glove is provided wherein the thumb portion and index finger portion are separable as a unit from the remainder of the glove by means of a sealing fastener forming a seam between the base of the thumb on the forehand and the base of the thumb on the backhand through an interdigit notch between the index finger and the second finger portions of the glove. The separable portion is provided with means for fastening to the wrist portion of the glove, thereby to expose the thumb and forefinger of the user and to allow full dexterity.
