    Abstract: Disclosed is a golf glove with an ultrathin grip coating. The glove construction incorporating the ultrathin grip coating on the palmar-grip surfaces of the glove's palm and fingers creates a more secure grip on a golf club handle than golf gloves described in the prior art. The coating retains its high coefficient of friction with the golf club handle, even when wet. The more secure grip leads to fewer missed shots resulting slippage and rotation of the club handle in the golfer's hands during a golf swing. In some versions of the glove, the ultrathin coating is a siliconized rubber coating bonded to an underlying soft fabric which contacts the skin of the golfer's hand. The siliconized rubber coating is bonded to the fabric at an interface, wherein the fabric is infused with the coating material.
