| Abstract: |
An insulated glove that has an increased area heat pocket and reduced length long finger portions. Each long finger portion is adapted to loosely fit each finger and thereby allow heated air to flow from the heat pocket outwardly to the fingertips. In the preferred embodiment, an oversized outer glove shell is used to enable the loose fit of the long finger portions.

First Claim:

I claim:
1. An insulated glove comprising:
- a tubular body portion having an opening at a first end that is sized to admit a wearer's hand into an interior cavity within said body portion;
- a plurality of long finger portions located at a second end of said body portion wherein each long finger portion is sized and adapted to inwardly receive a long finger of a wearer's hand;
- a thumb portion attached to said body portion wherein said thumb portion is sized and adapted to inwardly receive a thumb of a wearer's hand and has an outer tip that is spaced from said first end of said body portion by a first predetermined distance;
- said long finger portions having a length wherein each can surround only a forward portion of a long finger of a wearer's hand;
- wherein a plurality of said long finger portions have a bottom end that is spaced from said first end of said body portion by a distance that is greater than said first predetermined distance;
- wherein said long finger portions are adapted to loosely fit around the fingers of a wearer's hand and thereby allow air to flow from the cavity within the glove's body portion to an interior tip portion of each of the long finger portions; and
- wherein the glove is constructed from an insulating layer of material sandwiched between an outer shell and an inner liner and wherein said outer shell has an outer circumference in the area of the finger portions that allows the insulating layer around and between the long finger portions to remain in a substantially noncompressed state and thereby allows the long finger portions to loosely fit the fingers of a wearer's hand when a wearer has placed a hand within said glove thereby allowing air to travel from the body portion to the interior tip portions of each of the long finger portions.
