Abstract: Glove fitting apparatus including cuff holding means (14) adapted to hold open the cuff opening of a glove, and adapted to release said glove after insertion of a user's hand, and support means (20) for supporting the cuff holding means. The glove may be released directly from the holding means, or alternatively, the glove may be released by way of releasing of the holding means from the support means. The retaining means may include stiffening means wherein the support means releasably holds the stiffening means and the glove supported thereby. It is also preferred that the stiffening means includes a ring assembly (14) comprising two rings which fit closely one inside the other such that when the opening of the glove is fitted over the inner ring, the outer ring may be tightly engaged about the inner ring to clamp the opening of the glove between the two rings.
