Glove
A glove (
Middle English from
Old English glof) is a type of
garment (and more specifically a
fashion accessory) which covers the
hand of a
human. Gloves have separate sheaths or openings for each
finger and the
thumb; if there is an opening but no covering sheath for each finger they are called "fingerless gloves". Fingerless gloves with one large opening rather than individual openings for each finger are sometimes called
gauntlets. Gloves which cover the entire hand but do not have separate finger openings or sheaths are called mittens. Mittens are warmer than gloves made of the same material because the extra air inside creates added insulation, and because fingers maintain their warmth better when they are touching.
