A glove has a window providing an exposed back of the hand and a fastener positioned about the wrist. Each finger of the glove includes a slot connected to the window, thereby exposing both the back of the hand and the backs of the fingers when worn. A pocket at the end of each finger fully covers the fingertip of a wearer. The sides of the gloves may extend upwardly enough to cover the sides of the hand when the glove is worn. Textures may be provided on the palm of the glove to impart improved grip to the wearer.

The present invention relates to handwear or a glove to be worn on a user's hand. More particularly, the present invention relates to methods, systems, devices, and mechanisms for securing handwear or a glove to a user's hand. Even more particularly, the present invention relates to methods, systems, devices and mechanisms to create a custom fit of the handwear or glove to the user's hand in multiple dimensions or directions. The invention further relates to various types of fasteners and configurations adapted to create a multiple-dimension or multiple-direction custom fit securing the handwear or glove to the user's hand.

The glove includes a hand portion, a sleeve portion integral to the hand portion and extending conically outward, a cuff portion integral with the sleeve portion and extending conically outward, and a connection portion between the cuff portion and the sleeve portion. The cuff portion has an extended configuration and folded configuration. The connection portion includes an annular band includes a first ring, a second ring, and a protruding ring between the first and second rings. The protruding ring includes a first bulged rim, a second bulged rim, and a band portion between the first and second bulged rims. The connection portion is in a first hinged relationship with the sleeve portion at the first ring so as to lock the folded configuration, and a second hinged relationship of the connection portion with the cuff portion supports the folded configuration.

The present invention relates to a vinyl glove with a cosmetic pack function having a shape of a finger glove having finger portions and a body, the vinyl glove including: cutting lines formed along the finger portions to separate given portions of the finger portions from the body; finger bonding portions formed toward the body by given distances with respect to the cutting lines in such a manner as to thermally bond tops and undersides of the finger portions to prevent the cosmetic liquid from leaking to the outside; and a wrist bonding portion formed inward toward the body by a given distance with respect to an insertion portion formed on a wrist portion of the body in such a manner as to thermally bond top and underside of the body to prevent a cosmetic liquid from leaking to the outside.

A thumb brace comprising a glove having a thumb portion disposed between a palm side and a back side and comprising a first attachment region positioned adjacent a base of the thumb portion and a second attachment region positioned on the back side of the glove; a first elastic strap whereby the first strap extends a distal end of a thumb metacarpal bone of a user of the brace; a second elastic strap having a first end attached to the palm side of the glove and the second end releasably attached to the second attachment region, whereby the second strap reduces a proximal end of a thumb metacarpal bone of a user of the brace; and a pad attached to the glove such that the pad cushions a CMC joint of the user of the brace from impact.

A sports glove for being worn by a hand of a user may include a backhand panel and a palm panel joined to the backhand panel to form a palm cavity therebetween. The palm cavity extends from a base portion to a knuckle portion. The sports glove may further include a wrist sleeve extending from the base portion of the palm cavity and a wrist strap to wrap about the wrist sleeve. The wrist strap includes a pocket, wherein a protective panel is located within the pocket.

The present invention has a palmar portion with only one large recess of substantial sixe to enable skin contact with the skin exposed by the one opening. The one large opening is positioned along the glove palmar portion and does not expose any of the wearer's five metacarpophalangeal joints as well as the thumb metacarpal when the glove is worn.

A training glove, and methods of using the same are provided. The training glove includes a glove portion, wherein the glove portion includes a first protective portion disposed to cover at least a portion of the posterior of a user's hand when worn by the user. The training glove further includes a blocker portion, wherein the blocker portion is secured to the glove portion and includes a second protective portion disposed to cover a portion of a user's anterior forearm when worn by the user. The training glove further includes a retention system.

A weight training glove apparatus for improved grip securing weights includes a glove body having a dorsal side, a ventral side, a wrist portion, a palm portion, a thumb portion, and a plurality of finger portions. The wrist portion has a principal aperture extending through to a glove inside. Each of the plurality of finger portions has a fingertip aperture configured to expose a user's fingertip and the thumb portion has a thumb tip aperture configured to expose a user's thumb tip. A strap is coupled to the wrist portion and comprises a first mating member and a second mating member to selectively cinch the principal aperture and secure the wrist portion on the user's wrist. A grip panel is coupled to the ventral side of the wrist portion and extends towards the fingertip apertures. The grip panel is substantially flexible to be wrapped around a weight bar.

Apparatus, systems, and methods for sealing an interface are provided. For example, a protective guard is provided for sealing an interface. The protective guard comprises a body comprising a fluid impervious material and proximal and distal segments that may comprise a superabsorbent or a non-superabsorbent material. The proximal and distal segments are positioned on first and second sides, respectively, of the interface. The protective guard extends about the interface to create a fluid barrier. In some embodiments, the non-superabsorbent material may be an elastic material, such as an elastic band, and in particular embodiments, the non-superabsorbent material may be nitrile. In further embodiments, the non-superabsorbent material may be an expandable material that expands upon contact or interaction with a fluid.
