A striking glove may comprise a wrist band; an inner glove for receiving a hand; an outer shell conforming generally to the inner glove; one or more padding layers positioned between the inner glove and the outer shell; and an internal support system between the inner glove and the outer shell. The internal support system comprises at least a first and a second channel disposed on the dorsal side of the glove, and a first strap and a second strap at least partially disposed within the first and second channels and configured in an overlapped and crossed configuration, wherein each of the first and the second strap is configured to be retained within and slide within the respective channel, and wherein ends of the first and second straps extend from a dorsal cavity between the inner glove and the outer shell to an exterior of the striking glove.

A protective glove (100) is disclosed, comprising: a wrist section (200) for protecting a wrist of a wearer of the glove (100); a hand section (300) attached to an end of the wrist section (200), the hand section (300) for protecting the hand of a wearer of the glove (100). The hand section (300) comprises a knuckle section (304) for protecting the knuckles of a wearer of the glove (100). The glove (100) further comprises a knuckle compressor (900) is configured to compress the knuckle section (304), and comprises at least one strap (901) extending between a palm side of the hand section (300) and a back side of the hand section (300). The at least one strap (901) is configured to compress the knuckle section (304).

A sports glove such as those for hockey, lacrosse, cricket, baseball and the like is formed as a palm and a separate back with a continuous peripheral closure for attachment of the two parts. The fingers inside the finger stalls are protected from contact with the closure material which is typically a metallic or plastic zipper, wherein carefully proportioned padding inside the finger stalls insulates each finger side and distal end from contact with the closure thus offering adequate protection. Furthermore, a pivotable inside wrist cuff flap is provided which creates a smooth transition of inside glove liner material protecting the palm and inside wrist from contact with hook and loop closure materials in the area as the hand is inserted into the glove.

A device to aid in the stabilization and preparation of food while protecting the user's fingers.

A method includes mounting an article to a hand, the article including a conformable elastic wrap which exerts a compressive force against the hand when extended, biased, or stretched; and a sleeve including an inner surface and an outer surface configured to slidably engage the top and bottom faces; mounting the first end to metacarpal I such that the bottom face engages the palm of the human hand, wrapping the conformable elastic wrap such that the bottom face is urged toward and around metacarpal V and between metacarpals I and II such that the elastic wrap defines a first compressive bandage or loop about the hand; urging the bottom face from between metacarpals I and II toward and around proximal phalange V; positioning the sleeve such that the outer surface overlies proximal phalanges II-V; and extending the wrap such that the sleeve is held in place by a compressive force.

Disclosed herein is a boxing glove that includes an interior liner. The interior liner comprises an exterior surface and an interior surface. The interior surface defines an interior pocket configured to receive a hand of a user. The boxing glove also includes a shock-absorption layer that is coupled with at least a portion of the exterior surface of the interior liner. The shock-absorption layer includes a lattice comprising a three-dimensional arrangement of at least one repeating pattern of interconnected cells.

A fighting glove includes a first padding section and a second padding section disposed in a dorsal side of a user's hand, and a strapping section configured to secure the glove to the user's hand. The first padding section includes multiple impact absorption layers, multiple slip layers, and a contour layer, which are each partially bonded to each other. In particular, the hand regions of the layers are securely attached to each other, and the hand body regions of the layers are not attached to each other such that the hand body regions of the layers are free to move independently from each other. Further, the fighting glove includes an exterior layer formed by a single fabric material in each of the inner side and the outer side of the exterior layer to mitigate the glove from forming protrusions or rough features on the exterior layer of the glove.
