Embodiments of golf gloves having a cut out portion and methods to manufacture gloves having a cut out portion are generally described herein. Other embodiments of gloves may be described and claimed.

A protective glove includes a primary yarn that forms the palm, thumb and finger sections of the glove. The primary yarn has an interior surface forming the interior surface of the glove, and an exterior surface forming the exterior surface of the glove. A plaiting yarn can be plaited to portions of the exterior surface of the primary yarn to form a plurality of enhanced sections on the exterior surface of the glove. The enhanced sections can have at least one substantially enhanced physical characteristic in relation to the primary layer.

Embodiments of a glove including a cut out portion and a reinforcing panel are described herein. In many embodiments, a glove comprises a glove body with a dorsal side, a palmar side, a plurality of finger portions, a thumb portion, and a wrist portion. The wrist portion defines a glove opening in communication with an interior portion defined within the glove body. A reinforcing panel is secured on an outer surface of the glove body between the thumb portion and the wrist portion. A cut out portion defines an opening formed through the reinforcing panel and in communication with the interior portion of the glove body to minimize bunching up of the glove body. Other embodiments of gloves are described herein.

The enhanced sections can have at least one substantially enhanced physical characteristic in relation to the primary layer.

Disclosed herein are cosmetology and barbering gloves that enable cutting of hair without puncturing the knuckle or hand of the user.

The present invention relates to a fastening strap 45; 180; 211; 250 for fastening to a loop 35, 40 of protective clothing 10, 50 formed of a metal-ring mesh 26 as well as to such protective clothing 10; 50, the fastening strap 45; 180; 211; 250 comprising at least one engagement element 70; 185 as well as a recess 90; 205 correspondently configured with regard to the engagement element 70; 185, the engagement element 70; 185 and the recess 90; 205 engaging with each other and forming a loop section 155 which is configured to grip the loop 35, 40 of the protective clothing 10; 50 and to fix the fastening strap 45; 180; 211; 250 to the loop 35, 40 of the protective clothing 10; 50.

A nail covering for protecting one or more fingers or toenails from the harmful effects of dust and dirt includes a thin sheet of silicone, shaped and dimensioned to cover the nail. In a preferred embodiment, the thin sheet of silicone is shaped and dimensioned to cover the nail but not any surrounding flesh. In another preferred embodiment, the thin sheet of silicone has an adhesive backing for attaching the thin sheet of silicone to the nail.

Garments made from a composite, protective fabric are disclosed. The composite fabric has textile layers placed in proximity to metallic mesh layers of woven stainless steel mesh. The metal mesh layers formed from any metal which forms suitable fibers. The textile layers are fabric formed with well-known fabric fibers selected from those including para-aramid fibers, meta-aramid fibers, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers, polyethylene terephthalate fibers, cellulose fibers, polyamide fibers, a mixture of para-aramid fibers and meta-aramid fibers, and a mixture of para-aramid fibers and carbon fibers. Forming the non-metal textile layers is by any suitable method for interlacing yarns including weaving, knitting, crocheting, knotting, or felting, or combinations thereof. The garments made using the fabric include gloves, bullet proof vests and chain-saw resistant trousers.

The present invention relates to a yarn and a yarn forming process, further relates to a protective textile produced by using the yarn and a knitting method therefor, and additionally relates to textile equipment for knitting the protective textile. The present invention discloses a yarn, wherein a core filament of the yarn uses a tungsten wire, which is covered at the center of an outer-layer yarn. A protective textile knitted by using the foregoing tungsten-wire yarn may be obtained by using single-yarn knitting, or by using double-yarn knitting by mixing another yarn. A single shuttle or two-shuttle knitting of the textile equipment may be used in the knitting method. Technical effects of the protective textile are that the protective textile knitted by using the tungsten wire as a core filament has a higher protection level, is lighter and thinner, better fit hand skin, and is operated more flexibly.
