ABSTRACT:
A fruit picking glove comprised of soft material, such as jersey, and having four finger stalls and a thumb stall. The inside end portions of the three inner finger stalls include external foam rubber pads in the region of the distal phalanges of a hand inserted into the glove while the thumb stall includes a pad of foam rubber covering the distal and proximal phalanges. The finger stall of the little finger in its preferred form does not include a pad of foam rubber on the inner or palm portion of the finger stall, but can be included when desired. Such a glove configuration permits fruit, particularly apples, to be hand picked from a tree without any bruising of the fruit while still enabling the picker to feel and quickly remove the fruit during the harvesting thereof.
