ABSTRACT:
A protective device for the hand is disclosed in the form of an elastic band having a palm portion adapted to be fitted around and cover a portion of the palm of a wearer's hand. An elastic index portion extends upwardly from the palm portion and is adapted to be fitted around and cover a portion of the wearer's index finger. A resilient pad is affixed to the palm portion and extends into the index portion sufficiently to cover the knuckle of the wearer's index finger when the device is worn. The configuration is such that the pad serves to absorb impact forces and redistribute them over a greater area of the wearer's hand when the device is worn to reduce tissue trauma.
