Abstract:
A glove (2) having a palm covering portion, a plurality of finger covering portions extending from the palm covering portion to receive and cover fingers, a back portion associated with the palm covering portion to form a chamber to receive a hand, and elastic members (7) extending from the back portion past and over at least one knuckle of each finger, each elastic member being associated with a finger covering portion to allow stretching of the finger covering portions when the finger is bent.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed towards a tanned leather product that is impregnated with a plurality of microspheres containing a temperature stabilizing material. The present invention is also directed to a tanning process for embedding the microspheres into the leather. The thermal stabilizing material is a phase change material that allows the leather to have enhanced thermal properties when exposed to heat or cold.
