The inside of gloves can be easily checked according to the situation. However, this glove cannot be said to have no possibility of damaging the user with a fastener attached to the outer periphery, and there is room for improvement.

  Further, Patent Document 2 includes a substantially elliptical main body provided with an opening so that a hand can be inserted therein, and a locking means for holding the main body on a wrist, and the palm side of the main body. Is formed by providing a felt member between the first canvas and the lining, and the back side of the main body is formed with goose on the fingertip side, A restraining tool that covers a hand configured by providing two canvases is disclosed.

  As a means for locking the restrainer, a fastener provided obliquely from the opening for inserting a hand toward the fingertip direction can be used to ensure a comfortable wearing feeling and ease of putting in and out the hand. However, this glove has a slightly complicated structure and there is room for improvement in terms of suppressing sewing costs.

  Also, as a separate issue from the above, since wearing the gloves as described above restricts the movement of the hand, there is a denial of the possibility of promoting deterioration of the hand's motor function by prolonged use. Can not.
