A 3-D finger glove that may fit onto a human finger is provided. The finger glove that has a 3-D cavity so that it may easily be put on to a finger by a user and is formed by bonding together two nonwoven webs, at least one of which is elastic, while the elastic web stretched. Additionally, the 3-D finger glove successfully prevents the formation of stiff seams along the edge so that seams will not cause abrasion or damage to the areas where the glove is intended to be used. Additionally, the 3-D glove disclosed can have flush seams, which further reduces the stiffness along the seams so that the user feels more comfortable while wearing the glove. Furthermore, the 3-D shaped finger glove may provide a bigger surface area for cleaning or other uses. A number of therapeutic additives may also be applied to the glove.
A 3-D finger glove comprising a hollow member having an open end for the insertion of a finger, said hollow member comprising a first section attached to a second section, said first section comprising a nonwoven material, said second section comprising an elastic nonwoven material, said first section being bonded to said second section to make a seam, while said second section is stretched by an amount between 25 and 90 percent of the unstretched length.
A 3-D finger glove comprising a first section attached to a second section, said first section and said second section defining a pocket therebetween, said pocket having a distal end and a proximal end, said distal end being closed and said proximal end being open, said open proximal end being configured to allow the insertion of a finger into said pocket, said second section comprising an elastic nonwoven material, bonded to said first section while said second section is stretched.
