Abstract
A hockey glove comprising a hand protective section and a wrist protective section. The hand protective section has a palm portion, a thumb portion and finger portions interconnected by an inner fabric. An outer hand protective fabric structure is connected to the inner fabric and has a plurality of outer protective padded formations disposed over the hand portion, thumb portion and finger portions. The padded formations have an outer wear resistant cover. The padded formation disposed over each of the finger portions has at least two separated padded finger sections extending coextensively with each finger portion from an upper knuckle area of the finger portion to a finger ending. A flexible joint is defined at the upper knuckle area and between the two separated padded finger sections substantially at a mid-knuckle area of the finger portion. A narrow transverse flexible protective web of wear resistant material is secured in the joint areas to provide external protection at the joint areas when the finger portions are articulated to a clasped position by a wearer clasping the hand. The joints reduce pressure points in the hand protective section of the glove when a wearer's hand is clasped such as when gripping a hockey stick.
