Abstract
A glove provided with a releasable strap system for securing the glove body to a user's hand. The releasable strap system comprises a strap component and a wrist anchor component. The anchor component is able to slidably engage a wrist strap member of the strap component. The strap system releasably secures the glove body to the user's hand such that simultaneously i) the wrist strap member is contracted about a user's wrist and ii) a backhand strap member of the strap component is diagonally tensioned across the back face of the glove body such that said central component is contracted about the user's hand.
