ABSTRACT:
A device (and method) for securing a glove (or mitten) having two opposing ends and fastener for releasably fastening the opposing ends together to define the first strap as a continuous loop having a circumference extending over the glove around the wrist of the hand. A second strap is provided having a fixed end connected to the first strap and a free end which extends substantially perpendicular from a first part of the continuous loop of the first strap over the glove between two adjacent digits of the hand. The free end of the second strap has a fastener for releasably fastening the second strap to a second part of the continuous loop substantially circumferentially opposite the first part of the continuous loop. In the case where the glove defines a mitten, the above two adjacent digits are the thumb and index finger of the hand. The free end of the second strap of the device may further have a tapered width along a portion of the free end which extends between the two adjacent digits. This portion of the free end is substituted with a plurality of strips, such that each of the plurality of strips extends over the glove between a different set of two adjacent digits of the hand.
