Abstract: A paddling glove is manufactured by forming a mit in a dip-moulding process and then uniting selected internal surfaces of the mit with selected facing internal to define finger pockets with webs extending therebetween. There is also provided a paddling glove having a web extending between adjacent digit pockets and having a vane which extends from the web towards the palm-side of the digit pockets to define a shallow scoop between the web, adjacent digit pockets and the vane so as to improve positive water displacement in use for paddling.
