ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a hand cover such as a glove or mitten having at least a portion of its frontal surface bearing an outwardly exposed thin pad of reticulated plastic foam. Reticulated plastic foam is a non-capillary, open skeletal fibrous structure that is obtained from open cell plastic foam by destroying a substantial quantity of the cell walls with a suitable treatment, leaving an intertwined skeletal fibrous structure. In various embodiments, the thin pad of reticulated foam overlies the palm, the frontal surfaces of the fingers, the entire frontal surface of the hand, or the entire hand. The reticulated foam provides a vastly superior grip to objects such as tools, bats, rackets and the like.
