  • Patent number: 6421836
    Abstract: A golf glove, having tee pockets on its fastening band. The tee pockets may be formed between the internal and external sheets of the double ply fastening flap or between the surface of the glove body and the flap interlocking patch. The tee insert holes and the tee pockets are formed on the flat interlocking patch of the fastening band. The tee pockets are formed between the flap interlocking patch and the surface of the glove body such that the tee pockets extend in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the glove body. An elastic band is attached on the interior surface of the external sheet of the fastening flap in a direction along the tee insert holes so as to elastically hold the golf tees set in the tee pockets.

  • Patent number: 6370691
    Abstract: A baseball glove. The baseball glove includes a rough skin on the inner surfae of its thumb and finger sections. In the baseball glove, the rough skin is formed by regularly, repeatedly and shallowly cutting the inner surface of the thumb and finger sections to form several rows of arc-shaped and dense cuts, each including a groove and a ridge. The rows of cuts are oriented along a direction perpendicular to an axial direction of the thumb and finger sections. The grooves of the cuts are inclined toward the finger tips of the glove, thus allowing each ridge to have an arc shape curved towards the palm and to be raised up from the skin of the glove so as to brake the rotating action of the ball in addition to preventing an unexpected slipping of the ball out of the glove when catching the ball.
