Abstract A glove having a web section attached within an opening in the glove. The web section is formed from a sheet of material which is directly attached to the glove with the exception of at least one edge portion of the sheet which is not directly attached. This edge portion of the sheet of material is folded over with the folded portion then having a plurality of parallel lateral slits which extend from the outer extremity of the edge portion towards an opposite edge of the sheet of material. In this manner, a plurality of looped sections are formed within the folded edge portion. Alternate ones of the looped sections are offset so as to form first and second aligned rows of such looped sections. A first lace passes through the looped sections of the first row and a second lace passes through the looped sections of the second row. These first and second laces are attached to the glove so as to secure the folded edge of the web section to the glove.
A glove having a web section positioned within an opening in the glove, said web section comprising: a sheet of material being substantially directly attached to said glove except for at least one edge portion thereof; said sheet of material being folded over at said edge portion; said folded edge portion having a plurality of parallel lateral slits; said slits extending from the outer extremity of said edge portion towards an opposite edge of said sheet of material so as to form a plurality of looped sections; alternate ones of looped sections being offset so as to form first and second aligned rows of said looped sections in said edge portion; a first lace passing through said looped sections of said first row; and, a second lace passing through said looped sections of said second row; said first and second laces being attached to said glove so as to secure said folded edge to said glove.
