Abstract: The inventive subject matter is directed toward a glove having a hand receiving opening and a sealing mechanism that substantially seals the hand receiving opening. Where the sealing mechanism has an abrasive surface, such as when hook and loop fasteners are engaged, a non-abrasive material could be utilized that covers the abrasive surface during use.
