Abstract: An article of clothing, such as a hand covering, and method of making the same results in a leakproof and breathable article of clothing with good dexterity. The hand covering includes a body cavity for covering a palm and a dorsum of a hand and at least one seamed finger cavity, extending from the body cavity, for covering at least one finger. The finger cavity has a base adjacent the body cavity and a tip opposite the base. A seam extends between and includes the area of the base and the tip. A cut may be made in the hand covering so that a component of a tape sealing machine may be inserted therein to support the seam to be sealed. Once this seam is sealed, the cut is seamed and sealed. The hand covering may therefore sealed using a single tape sealing machine to effectively seal all seams while minimizing manufacturing costs.

Abstract: A glove construction is disclosed wherein a die cut trank is provided with mirror symmetrical body portions having integral upwardly extending finger stall forming portions adapted to be secured together with a fourchette therebetween. The glove is provided with reinforcing means for inhibiting the formation of runs in the body portions, said reinforcing means being applied to the finger stall forming portions adjacent the peripheral edge thereof in the crotch region of the glove, the reinforcing means being U-shaped, with the legs of the U being positioned in adjacent finger stalls and the base of the U being in the crotch between the two adjacent finger stalls. In the preferred embodiment the reinforcing means comprise merrow stitching applied to the edge of the finger stall forming portions in the U-shaped form. In another embodiment the reinforcing means comprise a top stitch extending in substantially parallel spaced relation with the edge of the finger stall forming portions.
