Gloves
A
glove
(Middle
English from Old English glof) is a type of garment which covers the
hand. Gloves have separate sheaths or openings for each finger and the
thumb;
if there is an opening but no covering sheath for each finger
they are called "fingerless gloves". Fingerless gloves
with one large
opening rather than individual openings for each fingers are sometimes
called gauntlets. Gloves
which cover the entire hand but do not have
separate finger openings or sheaths are called mittens. Mittens are
warmer than gloves made of the same material because the extra air
inside creates added insulation, and because fingers maintain their
warmth better when they are touching.
There is also a type of fingerless mitten available which allows all
the fingers of a hand to reside within a single defined cavity to
maximize the benefits of body heat, whilst also allowing the individual
fingers to be quickly freed for ease of movement. The usual design is
for the mitten cavity to be stitched on one side only to the back of
the fingerless glove, allowing it to be flipped over to transform the
garment from one type of glove to another.
Today gloves are made around the world. Most
expensive women's
fashion
gloves are still made in France, with some made in Canada.
For cheaper
male gloves New York State, especially Gloversville, New York is still
a world centre of glove manufacturing. More and more glove
manufacturing is being done in East Asia.
