Abstract
A pair of yoga gloves comprising right and left hand gloves made of natural or synthetic materials and each glove having the tip portion of the finger and thumb receiving sleeves of each glove cut off to provide exposed finger and thumb tips when the gloves are worn and a non-slip sticky substance on portions of the outer surface of a palm covering portion of each glove.
Description

- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Heretofore people practicing yoga exercises and Pilates exercise did them with bare hands on a mat and sometimes their hands slipped.
- According to the teachings of the present invention there is provided a pair of yoga gloves comprising right and left hand gloves made of natural or synthetic materials and each glove having the tip portion of the finger and thumb receiving sleeves of each glove cut off to provide exposed finger and thumb tips when the gloves are worn and a non-slip sticky substance on portions of the outer surface of a palm covering portion of each glove.
-
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the back side of a right hand glove constructed according to the teachings of the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the inside or palm side of the glove shown inFIG. 1 . - The
glove 10 shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 of a pair of gloves are made from a sweat absorbing fabric that may be made from natural or synthetic materials, e.g., cotton, wool, rayon, bamboo, polyester or other textiles. - The
right hand glove 10 hashalf fingers tip portions - A palm area 42 (there is no 32 in the drawing) has a non-slip
sticky substance 34 on the palm, specifically placed on the pads of the hand as shown inFIG. 2 (does the picture need to say “FIG. 2” on it somewhere?) - The non-slip sticky substance is a rubbery substance made from any material such as rubber, plastic, PVC, silica, or other any other substance that creates a non-slip surface.
- Further, the non-slip
sticky substance 34 can be arranged in aC shape 36 on the pads of the palm as shown inFIG. 2 . The sticky substance specifically covers the palmarmetacarpal heads 38,hypothenar eminence 40 and thenar eminence 42. - The purpose: Many people when doing Yoga Poses have sweaty hands that tend to slip, making it difficult to hold their poses on a mat or floor. The gloves are designed to absorb sweat and provide a non slip environment. The exposed fingers still enable tactile functions which are also important and help to ensure that the hand can securely grip the floor, mat or Pilates equipment mat as well.
