Abstract

This disclosure relates to an improved sport glove construction comprising inner and outer glove shells of different constructions. The inner glove 30 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 the individual fingers and thumb, as well as the palm and back areas of the hand. The elastic inner glove is entirely enveloped by a second or outer glove 31 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 sheels are attached in a manner permitting the necessary degree of elastic expansion of the inner glove shell relative to the outer sheel when the glove is applied to the hand. As shown, the shells are attached to one another at the tips 32 of the finger and thumb stalls and around the cuff 33 by a line of loose stitching 34. <IMAGE>
