Abstract
A glove formed of a thick heat-resisting sheet or a waterproof sheet is provided with a sack portion for thumb and a sack portion for forefinger and, in addition, with a common sack portion formed in a one-piece unit for putting in the third finger, fourth finger, and fifth finger, together, and, in the meanwhile, the angles α and β formed between the center lines of the sack portions are set 40-50° and 25-35° so that the sack portions are rendered conformable to the shapes of the fingers that are naturally opened and hence the glove can be easily put on the hand.
