Easy-On Thumb Section Mittens and Gloves

Abstract

A simple and streamlined easy-on thumb section mitten or glove apparatus provides efficient and effective mounting and dismounting on to a hand of a user. The apparatus not only provides continuous protection during any activity to the user, but also allows the user to effectively perform the activity with satisfying comfort by keeping the user's thumb in a natural position. The unique shape and configuration of the thumb section include a specifically designed palm to thumb hole and a tunnel which hooks the user's thumb into the thumb section pocket. The thumb section includes a substantially wide opening and a downward curved cut pocket from the top to the opening, thus grabbing and correctly mounting the user's thumb. Further, with the addition of a securing mechanism around the wrist the easy-on mitten apparatus becomes secure on the user's hand, yet very easy to put on and take off
