Abstract

Abstract A covering for the hand of a user comprising a sheath of material resistant to ultraviolet ray penetration. The sheath has a top side and a bottom side and an expansible opening at a wrist end adapted to receive the user's hand. A multiplicity of digit ringlets on the top side of the sheath at the distal end opposite the wrist end are adapted to receive the fingers and thumb of the user's hand so as to secure the covering to the hand. The underneath or bottom side of the sheath has an arcuated recessed portion with the top of the recessed portion near the wrist end of the sheath so as to expose the palm of the user's hand when the hand is received through the wrist opening and the fingers and thumbs are received into the digit ringlets.
