Claims
- 1. A sport glove or the like comprising
- (a) a highly elastic, contractile inner glove shell formed of a knitted fabric,
- (b) said inner glove shell being of an initial contracted size and being sufficiently elastic whereby upon insertion of the hand the inner glove will expand to cause the hand to be tightly confined to provide a tingling sensation while the hand is not constricted against required movements for use in sporting activities,
- (c) an outer glove shell completely surrounding and enveloping said inner shell,
- (d) means securing said inner and outer glove shells by substantial overall attachment of said outer shell to said inner shell enabling the assembled gloves to be donned and doffed as a unitary structure,
- (e) said outer glove shell being constructed of stretch materials which are much less elastic than the fabric of the inner shell, said materials permitting it to expand and contract and move together with the expansion and contraction of said highly elastic contractile inner glove shell and being of an initial contracted size substantially the same as the contracted size of said inner glove shell whereby upon insertion of the hand the inner glove shell will expand and the outer glove shell will stretch about the hand and upon removal of the hand from the inner glove shell, the outer glove shell will contract with the inner glove shell to the contracted size of the inner glove shell.
- 2. A sport glove or the like according to claim 1 wherein means for attachment of said outer shell to said inner shell is by stitching.
- 3. A sport glove or the like according to claim 1 wherein the means for attachment of said outer shell to said inner shell is by a bonding adhesive intermediate said outer and inner shells.
- 4. A sport glove or the like according to claim 1 wherein the outer surface of said inner shell includes hook-like projecting members and said outer shell is constructed to provide means in association with its inner surface cooperatively joining with said hook-like members to secure said outer and inner shells together.
