A method of manufacturing an enhanced, 3D, hand-shaped glove includes placing a seamless textile glove shell onto a laminating form, placing a solid laminate preform onto the glove shell, and applying pressure at an elevated temperature to laminate the preform to the glove shell. A platen or roller press can apply pressure to a glove shell on a flat surface of a laminating form, or a bladder or vacuum bag press can apply pressure to a glove shell on a curved surface of a laminating form. Edge peel resistance can be enhanced by extending the perimeter of a low modulus upper preform layer beyond underlying layers and bonding it directly to the glove shell. Fingers of the laminating form can be made wide and thin to cause warping of the preform about the glove fingers, or narrow and thick to minimize distortion of the finger shapes due to the preform.

A method of manufacturing an article that includes providing an element formed of an elastomeric material or composite; placing the surface of the element in contact with a substrate; and affixing the element to the substrate. The element includes an uncured, partially cured, or fully cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material and optionally one or more regions of an adhesive material. The element is affixed to the substrate while the surface of the element is in contact with a surface of the substrate by increasing a temperature of at least a portion of the element, applying pressure to at least a portion of the element, or exposing the uncured or partially cured UV radiation curable material to UV radiation in an amount and for a duration of time that is sufficient to partially cure the uncured material or to fully cure the partially cured material.

A disclosed method for manufacturing a glove includes forming a base via molding, the base being shaped to include a palm portion and one or more extremity portions. The method also includes forming a top skin via molding, the top skin including one or more compartments, and forming a backhand assembly by attaching one or more edges of the one or more compartments of the top skin to the base. At least one remaining edge of each of the one or more compartments is unattached from the base. The method also includes reversing an orientation of the backhand assembly, filling each of the one or more compartments of the top skin with foam, and attaching the at least one remaining edge of each of the one or more compartments to the base.

A pair of short length disposable finger food gloves protecting the fingers and thumb from oily foods, juicy sauces, sticky syrups, liquids, and all other food residue while eating finger foods when hand washing is not accessible where the design accommodates the use of this glove by offering various shapes (e.g., with an extended tab) along the diagonal hemline to aid in dressing the hand with circular, square, rectangle, inverted triangle, and triangle forms or tabs to pinch and pull to insert the hand with optional combinations of shapes for the knuckle side and palm side of the hands whereby the material used will be of a lightweight vinyl, polyurethane, paper, felt, fabric, rubber or a combination of materials with various sizes and optional colors to suit the wearer.

A scraper glove is provided and includes a glove body including one or more finger sleeves; and one or more scraper elements. Each of the scraper elements includes a receptacle portion positioned within a respective one of the finger sleeves to accept one or more fingers of a user, and a scraping portion with one or more scraping edges extending from a tip of a corresponding finger sleeve and integrally connected to the corresponding receptacle portion, wherein the scraping portion is configured to scrape a plant-based medium.

Aspects herein include a knit component having a non-reflective portion formed from a first knit segment that is knit with the first yarn and the second yarn in a plated relationship, where the first yarn forms the non-reflective portion on a technical face of the knit component. A reflective portion is formed from a second knit segment that is knit with the second yarn, where the second yarn forming the reflective portion is on the technical face of the knit component. The second knit segment is integrally knit with the first knit segment along the knit course.

A multi-layer antibacterial glove for providing effective and fashionable protection against germs includes a glove body comprising an inner layer, a second layer, a third layer, and an outer layer. The inner layer is breathable and is configured to form fit a user's hand. The second layer is continuously disposed around the inner layer. The second layer is moisture-resistant. The third layer continuously disposed around the second layer and is antibacterial. The outer layer is continuously disposed around the third layer. The outer layer is a fashionable or functional glove material.

A scraper glove is provided and includes a glove body including one or more finger sleeves; and one or more scraper elements. Each of the scraper elements includes a receptacle portion positioned within a respective one of the finger sleeves to accept one or more fingers of a user, and a scraping portion with one or more scraping edges extending from a tip of a corresponding finger sleeve and integrally connected to the corresponding receptacle portion, wherein the scraping portion is configured to scrape a plant-based medium.
