Gloves with the fingers cut off. Fingerless Gloves: Ultimate Guide to Enhanced Dexterity and Protection

What are the benefits of fingerless gloves. How do they improve work efficiency. Which industries benefit most from using fingerless gloves. What materials are best for fingerless work gloves. How do fingerless gloves enhance safety in various occupations.

The Advantages of Fingerless Gloves in the Workplace

Fingerless gloves have become increasingly popular across various industries due to their unique combination of protection and dexterity. These specialized gloves offer workers the best of both worlds: safeguarding the majority of the hand while allowing for precise finger movements. Let’s explore the numerous benefits and applications of fingerless gloves in professional settings.

Enhanced Range of Motion and Dexterity

One of the primary advantages of fingerless gloves is the increased range of motion they provide. Workers can perform intricate tasks with ease, such as:

• Handling small tools and components
• Writing and note-taking
• Operating touchscreen devices
• Manipulating delicate wires
• Accessing items in tool belts

This improved dexterity allows for greater efficiency and precision in various occupations, from construction to electronics assembly.

Tactile Sensitivity

Fingerless gloves preserve the natural sense of touch in the fingertips, which is crucial for many tasks. This tactile sensitivity enables workers to:

• Feel texture and surface irregularities
• Gauge pressure and grip strength
• Identify small objects by touch
• Perform quality control inspections

By maintaining this sensory feedback, workers can perform their duties more effectively and with greater attention to detail.

Industries and Occupations Benefiting from Fingerless Gloves

Fingerless gloves have found applications across a wide range of industries and occupations. Here are some of the most common sectors where these gloves prove invaluable:

Automotive Industry

Mechanics and automotive technicians often prefer fingerless gloves because they allow for precise work under the hood while protecting the palms and backs of hands from grease, oil, and minor abrasions.

Construction and Carpentry

In construction, fingerless gloves offer protection during heavy-duty tasks while allowing workers to handle small items like nails, screws, and measuring tools with ease. Carpenters particularly benefit from the ability to feel wood grain and maintain a secure grip on their instruments.

Electrical Work

Electricians require both hand protection and the ability to manipulate small wires and components. Fingerless gloves provide an ideal solution, offering insulation for the palm while leaving fingertips free for delicate work.

Manufacturing and Assembly

Workers in manufacturing plants often need to handle small parts and operate machinery. Fingerless gloves allow for the dexterity required in assembly processes while protecting hands from minor injuries.

Warehousing and Logistics

In warehouse environments, fingerless gloves offer protection during heavy lifting and pallet handling while allowing workers to operate barcode scanners, tablets, and other digital devices without removing their gloves.

Materials and Types of Fingerless Work Gloves

Fingerless gloves come in various materials, each suited to different work environments and requirements. Let’s examine some of the most common types:

Leather Fingerless Gloves

Leather gloves are prized for their durability and abrasion resistance. They’re particularly well-suited for construction, carpentry, and other jobs involving rough materials. Leather fingerless gloves offer excellent protection for the palm and back of the hand while maintaining flexibility.

Cut-Resistant Fingerless Gloves

For industries where cut hazards are present, such as food processing or metalworking, cut-resistant fingerless gloves provide an extra layer of safety. These gloves often incorporate materials like Kevlar or high-performance polyethylene (HPPE) to resist cuts and slashes.

Cotton and Synthetic Blend Gloves

Lightweight and breathable, cotton and synthetic blend gloves are ideal for general-purpose use. They offer basic protection and improved grip, making them suitable for tasks in warehousing, gardening, and light manufacturing.

Mechanics-Style Fingerless Gloves

Designed specifically for automotive and mechanical work, these gloves often feature reinforced palms, padded knuckles, and stretchy materials for a snug fit. They provide protection against impacts and abrasions while allowing for the dexterity needed to work with tools and small parts.

Enhancing Safety and Efficiency with Fingerless Gloves

While fingerless gloves may seem counterintuitive from a safety perspective, they actually contribute to workplace safety in several ways:

Improved Compliance

Workers are more likely to wear gloves consistently when they don’t interfere with their ability to perform tasks. Fingerless gloves encourage compliance with safety protocols by providing a comfortable and practical solution.

Reduced Fatigue

The increased dexterity and tactile sensitivity of fingerless gloves can reduce hand fatigue, as workers don’t need to exert as much force to grip and manipulate objects. This can lead to fewer repetitive strain injuries over time.

Enhanced Situational Awareness

By maintaining the ability to feel textures and temperatures, workers can better assess potential hazards in their environment. This heightened awareness can prevent accidents and injuries.

Choosing the Right Fingerless Gloves for Your Needs

Selecting the appropriate fingerless gloves depends on several factors. Consider the following when making your choice:

Job Requirements

Assess the specific tasks and hazards associated with your work. Do you need cut resistance, impact protection, or simply improved grip? Understanding your job requirements will guide you towards the most suitable glove type.

Material Considerations

Different materials offer varying levels of protection, durability, and comfort. Leather is excellent for abrasion resistance, while synthetic materials may provide better breathability and flexibility.

Fit and Comfort

Proper fit is crucial for both safety and performance. Gloves should be snug but not restrictive, allowing for full range of motion. Look for gloves with adjustable wrist closures for a secure fit.

Additional Features

Consider extras like padded palms, reinforced fingertips, or touchscreen compatibility, depending on your specific needs.

Maintaining and Caring for Fingerless Work Gloves

Proper care and maintenance of your fingerless gloves can significantly extend their lifespan and ensure consistent performance. Here are some tips to keep your gloves in top condition:

Cleaning Procedures

Different materials require different cleaning methods. Leather gloves should be wiped clean with a damp cloth and conditioned periodically. Synthetic gloves can often be machine washed on a gentle cycle. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for specific care guidelines.

Storage

Store your gloves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid crushing or folding them in ways that could compromise their shape or protective features.

Inspection and Replacement

Regularly inspect your gloves for signs of wear, such as thinning material, holes, or loose stitching. Replace gloves that show significant damage to ensure continued protection and performance.

Addressing Common Concerns About Fingerless Gloves

Despite their many benefits, some workers may have reservations about using fingerless gloves. Let’s address some common concerns:

Are Fingerless Gloves Less Protective?

While it’s true that fingerless gloves leave the fingertips exposed, they still provide significant protection for the majority of the hand. In many cases, the improved dexterity and reduced likelihood of removing gloves for fine tasks actually enhance overall safety.

Can Fingerless Gloves Be Used in Cold Environments?

Fingerless gloves are not ideal for extremely cold conditions where full finger coverage is necessary. However, for moderately cool environments or situations where brief exposure to cold is acceptable, they can still be useful. Some models even come with convertible finger covers for added versatility.

Do Fingerless Gloves Comply with Safety Regulations?

In many industries, fingerless gloves meet safety requirements for hand protection. However, it’s essential to check specific regulations for your workplace and ensure that the gloves you choose meet or exceed the necessary standards.

Fingerless gloves offer a unique combination of protection and dexterity that can significantly enhance workplace safety and efficiency. By understanding their benefits, choosing the right type for your needs, and properly maintaining them, you can make the most of these versatile hand protection solutions. Whether you’re in construction, manufacturing, or any industry requiring precise handiwork, fingerless gloves may be the perfect solution to balance safety and performance in your daily tasks.

Breath of the Wild, fingerless Link gloves tutorial

So as I work on my costume for Link from Zelda: Breath of the Wild, it is time to remake my fingerless Link gloves. The first pair that I made for my Twilight Princess costume were made from leather gloves from Wal-Mart, but unfortunately they were only available around winter.

So the biggest concern with making these gloves was to prevent the stitching in the fingers from unraveling after cutting off the finger tips. But Mike made a pair of gloves for another costume a few months ago and solved that problem. You can purchase them <here>, or save some money and follow our tutorial. Without further ado, how to make:

What You’ll Need

1 pair of light color, leather gloves.
Scissors capable of cutting leather, or a good razor blade and straight edge
medium to dark leather dye
dye applicators (sponge brushes from Home Depot work too)
Fabric Glue (or super glue may work)

What Gloves to Buy.

One issue with the winter gloves from the Twilight Princess costume is that while incredibly soft, they weren’t very rugged. They looked broken in very quickly. I originally chose them because they were the correct color. This time though, I started with heavy duty work gloves from Home Depot. I purchased a set of gloves 2 sizes smaller than I normally wear. The glove fit the body of my hand well, but the fingers were too short. But that doesn’t matter, cause I am loping them off.

Gloves, size Ladies

So the most important thing is to choose a pair that fits your hand well, ignoring the fit of the fingers.

While I normally wear a size Large in gloves, in this case I made my gloves from a Small pair. Even these were too big for my sister, so we had to go with a more expensive pair of Deer kin gloves for her. They were size ladies. Which I guess is a size in our modern society…

Cutting off the fingers

Aradani has a very nice pair of leather scissors that makes short work of any leather, and gives a perfectly clean cut. Most likely you won’t own a pair of scissors that could cut through leather, so your best bet is most likely to use a sharp razor. Make sure its sharp, as you want a nice, clean cut.

I recommend that your first cut be way to short. Just cut off the tips of the fingers like in this picture. You don’t want to cut off too much!

First cut

If you look carefully at the glove on the right, you will see pen marks on the gloves. After cutting off the tips, I slipped the gloves on, and lightly marked on the gloves right under the second knuckles on each finger. By making the fingerless gloves stop below the knuckle, it makes the gloves much more comfortable and flexible.

The Second Cut

So in this image, you can see how much I cut off in the first cut, and then the additional amount that I cut off on the second pass. Also notice how short the pinky finger is. Most people’s first pinky knuckle lines up with the second on their ring finger, so that means the glove’s pinky will be much shorter!

Also,  most hands aren’t symmetrical, so it is just easier and quicker to repeat the above steps for the second glove. Trust me.

Today is a Good Day to Dye

I recommend dyeing the gloves next. You can try and glue the stitching, but you run the risk of getting glue on the surface of the glove, which will then dye differently that the leather (sorta like wood glue and stain, though with woodworking, you usually have to use the glue first).

To achieve a nice color, I mixed two colors of Tandy’s Eco-Flo Waterstain. Aradani had a Medium Brown on hand, but it tends to dry very red, and light as well. Normally this is toned down with a nice layering of antiquing. But since I wasn’t planning on using antiquing, I went with a mix of Medium Brown and Black (approx. 70% brown, 30% black). 

I applied the dye using a Wool Dauber, also found from Tandy. I wear nitrile gloves when working with leather dye. And after I good application of dye, I typically rub the leather with my gloved hand. This helps rub in the dye, as well as pop any bubbles or froth that is made by the dye (which will leave a funky pattern on the glove is if dries). You can continue rubbing in the dye with the dauber, but I find that usually continues to add additional dye to the leather, thus getting darker and darker. And for some reason, a non-porous surface (gloved hand) gives me better results.

Gluing the Stitches

So this is the step that really excited me in making these gloves. Rather than sewing up every single stitch, you simply glue them shut. I can attest to the problems involved to hand sew leather. Just use glue.

My brother recommended Super Glue, but I couldn’t get it to adhere the leather. Instead I used some fabric glue, specifically Beacon Fabri-Fix. It adheres pretty quickly, and dries solid overnight. 

Carefully pry back the edge of the seam, put a small drop of glue, and squeeze gently. I glued all the stitches, and then just left the gloves overnight.

And that’s it! Here are some pictures of the Link gloves complete, and in action.

Breathable, durable and functional, in a range of colours

Closure: Elastic | Padding: None | Palm: Synthetic leather

Gel pads with open venting for breathable support

Comfortable, wicking and supportive

Lots of colour options

Sizing runs small

With its Pro Aerogel Mitt, Endura set out to create a cycling glove that would actually breathe while also standing the test of time. Dense gel padding is used to absorb some of the shocks from the road, while airflow ‘voids’ within the pads help your hands to shed heat.

They come with all the standard features you’d expect from a decent road glove, including a terry cloth thumb panel to wipe away sweat, and finger tabs to help with removal.

High-stretch and moisture-wicking fabric is used on the back, making for a comfortable and supportive fit, while the flexible micro-fibre palm with silicone print details offers long-lasting wear and a firm grip on the bars.

A velcro strap closure allows for an adjustable fit, though it’s worth bearing in mind that the sizing comes up on the small side, so go a size up if you fall between two options.

GripGrab ProGel Short glove

Luxurious cycling gloves that use magnets to stay together

Closure: Velcro | Padding: Gel | Palm: Serino leather

Serino leather palm

Gel padding

‘gMagnets’

Expensive

GripGrab’s ProGel Short gloves are a bit like a La-Z-Boy for your digits. Starting with the luxurious plush Serino leather palm, GripGrab has employed its DoctorGel padding which was developed in collaboration with its sponsored athletes and doctors to help combat what’s known as ‘Cyclist’s palsy’ – pins and needles in the fingers caused by nerves being squished between your bars and the bones in your hand for an extended period. 

The backside of the glove is made using lycra with reflective logos, and the thumb features a suede nose wipe for when your ‘farmer’s blow’ doesn’t go quite according to plan. One of our favourite things about the ProGel gloves has nothing to do with the padding or fit: it’s the ‘gMagnets’ that allow you to stick the gloves together for storage; never again will you need to tear apart your drawers when you’re late for a group ride because you can only find one glove.

How to choose the best cycling gloves

1. Fit

Cycling gloves will fit differently depending on their weight, but, generally, look for a snug fit that doesn’t inhibit dexterity or inhibit range of motion. Gloves that are too tight may cut off circulation; too loose and the glove can bunch and cause hotspots, or even blisters.

2. Palm

Cycling gloves come with all different levels of padding, with racing mitts offering minimal cushioning all the way to plush gel-padded versions designed to keep your palms comfy for hours on end.

There are a couple of different schools of thought when it comes to padding. Most brands prioritise cushioning the heel of your hand, while other brands like Specialized are placing the padding in the middle of the palm to relieve nerve pressure. What works for you comes down to personal preference and the terrain you’re riding – glassy Swiss tarmac won’t require padded cycling gloves, while hours of washboard gravel likely does.

Most cycling gloves will have a synthetic leather palm, which breathes well and stands up to general wear, tear and abrasion.

3. Half finger vs long finger

Half-finger cycling gloves – or mitts – are the norm for road riding, and will have a lightweight, breathable material over the back of the hand and a synthetic-leather palm to protect against abrasion. With your fingertips unencumbered, there’s no loss in dexterity, and you’ll be able to use smartphones and touchscreens with ease. 

But half-finger gloves aren’t perfect, with reduced protection, comfort, how hard the suckers are to get off your hands, and the resulting tan line being cited as the usual reasons to avoid. We will usually don lightweight full-finger gloves when lining up for a crit, in case of a pile-up, or on a mixed-surface ride.

4. Nose wipe

If you’re anything like us, the moment you begin to pedal, your nose also starts to run. Look for cycling gloves with a nose wipe on the thumb that is made from fleece or terry cloth as the material is softer on the skin and provides better camouflage for stowaway boogers.

The Beauty of Fingerless Gloves

A brief history 

The fingerless glove became a fashion statement in the 1980s, made iconic by celebrities such as Billy Idol and Madonna.  

The lace fingerless glove can however, be traced back as early as the 19th Century. Gloves were an essential item in a lady’s wardrobe during this time and lace mitts could be paired with a woman’s day, or evening dress.  

Although a little more revealing than a conventional glove, the fingerless style would have still been deemed respectable in social circles and the ideal accessory on a warm summer’s day. Not as restrictive, the fingerless glove also provided greater freedom for movement and for those Victorian women wearing corsets, I’m sure this would’ve been welcomed!  

What’s the purpose of fingerless gloves? 

Fingerless gloves have been wrongly dismissed as ‘useless’ for failing to fulfil their purpose; keeping your hands warm. This simply isn’t true. Like other styles, the glove covers your pulse point as well as your palm and wrist. So even though your fingers are exposed, you can be assured that your hands will remain toasty.  

The clear advantage of the fingerless glove is its non-restrictive qualities. The mobility they provide makes them ideal for driving and cycling. It also cannot be denied that this style of glove makes quite the statement piece.

Driving 

Our Snetterton driving glove (pictured below) is the perfect accessory for the car enthusiast. Made from premium hairsheep leather, it’s supple in nature and acts like a second skin. There’s no doubt you’ll feel safe and stylish behind the wheel with this fingerless glove. 

Men’s Fingerless Leather Driving Gloves.

Almost identical in design, we also have our women’s Lashana glove available. Similarly to the Snetterton, this glove design is unlined and helps to ensure a firm grip. 

Cycling

With a pair of fingerless gloves, the unpredictable British weather won’t be able to stop you from taking a bike ride. Our Aldersley glove will help keep your hands warm, without compromising your grip on the handlebars. The elasticated wrist and padded palms that feature in this design will provide added comfort. 

Fashion

As the celebrity looks have shown, the fingerless glove can elevate any look. Our women’s short fingerless lace gloves (pictured below) provide an edgy alternative to the conventional occasion glove and for those brave enough, are a stand out accessory when about town. The style of this black pair is timeless and their intricate floral pattern make them ooze femininity.  

It seems then, that the fingerless glove isn’t so pointless after all!

Taking off the gloves: There’s no reason for noncompliance | 2014-03-04

If you watch workers labor in an industrial plant for a period of time, chances are you’ll see someone take off their work gloves for a task — and perhaps keep them off. Workers remove their hand protection products for various reasons, ranging from discomfort to job interference.

Taking gloves off during work used to be an unavoidable necessity for many workers. Today, however, innovations in fabrics, technology and production techniques are changing the hand protection experience for workers, providing incentive to wear work gloves for the duration of a shift. Consider the following three reasons workers tend to give for removing their gloves — and innovations which have stopped these excuses in their tracks:

1. “Gloves are not as comfortable as bare hands.”

Studies show that discomfort is the number one reason many workers remove hand protection. Gloves may be bulky and loose, hampering workers’ ability to perform job-related tasks or even getting caught in machinery. Improperly fitting hand protection may also restrict movement, causing hand fatigue, especially among older workers.

Comfort is essential for all applications, which is why more work gloves are now ergonomically designed to the shape of the hands, providing the flexibility required to perform tasks in fast-paced manufacturing environments. Innovative knitting technology varies the stitching in high stress areas — such as across the knuckles and back of the hand — to improve fit and allow hand movement for greater dexterity and less fatigue.

In the past, traditional hand protection products failed to manage perspiration and often resulted in wet, uncomfortable hands and persistent dermatitis, causing workers to remove their gloves. Employees at a chemical plant, for example, were unlikely to wear hand protection products for long periods during the summer when temperatures soared above 90ºF and their hands became hot and sweaty. Newer products are available that incorporate moisture management technology to significantly reduce perspiration build-up inside gloves in hot and humid environments.

Additionally, modern work gloves are breathable and keep hands cool and dry while protecting against job-related hazards such as cuts and abrasions.

2. “There’s no glove that provides all the protection that I need — and wearing multiple gloves at once just won’t cut it.”

In the past, many workers combined leather and heavy cotton gloves to provide protection against cut hazards. Or, they depended on multiple pairs of chemical-resistant gloves made of PVC or latex that were unable to breathe and offered little flexibility or provided limited protection against organic solvents.

Work gloves should always protect against the hazard that presents the greatest risk, whether it is cuts, abrasions, chemical burns or impact-related injuries. Luckily more gloves on the market today are designed for high levels of protection against multiple hazards such as cut and chemicals — while also being comfortable and improving workers’ ability to perform their jobs.

Some of today’s new technology includes a liquid-impermeable layer added to knit gloves to prevent oil or lubricants from making incidental contact with the wearer’s skin. Some cut-resistant gloves blend high performance polyethylene yarn with a polyurethane palm coating to provide ANSI Level 2 cut protection and ANSI Level 5 abrasion resistance. In addition, many gloves may be washed and re-used without reducing the cut protective properties, thereby extending the products’ service life.

Other state-of-the-art technology combines engineered, synthetic and natural fibers into high performance yarns to offer advanced levels of cut protection and dexterity. For example, a new hand protection product for the food industry combines advanced cut protection with spandex so the gloves conform to the hands and retain an ergonomic shape during use. In the past, an uncomfortable chain mesh glove was used to protect workers in high risk applications such as meat cutting. But today, with current innovations in hand protection, it often seems like anything is possible.

3. “I can’t work as fast with gloves on.”

In the past, heavy, bulky work gloves hampered hand movement and provided almost no sensitivity in the fingertips. As a result, workers often cut off the fingertips of their gloves or removed the product entirely to perform certain tasks, exposing fingers and hands to potential injury. In today’s world, however, workers who wear modern hand protection incorporating performance combined features such as dexterity and tactility are comfortable and productive.

Products are available today that offer an ultralight feel with flexibility, tactility and bare hand-like sensation. Special coatings can help keep hands cool and dry but at the same time offer ANSI Level 2 cut protection and ANSI Level 3 abrasion resistance to protect workers in assembly, packaging, machining and stamping applications.

Grip is a performance factor in many plant, oil field and construction applications. In order to securely grasp an object such as a pipe or sledge hammer, workers must have sufficient friction between the object and the hand. Workers often apply up to 40 percent more grip force than what they need to maintain a secure grasp. The grip force increases when objects are slippery due to oils or lubricants. Applying excessive grip force for a period of time can lead to hand and arm fatigue, which impacts performance. Over the long term, exerting excessive grip force can result in musculoskeletal disorders, including carpal tunnel syndrome. Microscopic channels used as a coating treatment in work gloves minimize the force required to maintain a firm grip on wet or oily objects and reduce hand and arm fatigue and improve dexterity. Current technology uses microscopic channels to wick away oil and moisture, thereby reducing the need for excessive grip force and the resulting fatigue.

Bottom-line benefits

Comfortable, productive workers save their employers money because they work faster and more confidently, which boosts productivity. Workers with comfortable gloves that provide sufficient protection and performance characteristics are unlikely to remove their hand protection, which helps control overall glove spend and glove loss. More important, injury rates decline, resulting in reduced medical indemnity costs and less time away from work.

Long-term success

Safety directors and purchasing personnel can ensure workers enjoy the above benefits by providing individuals the right glove for each application. Conducting a personal protective equipment (PPE) assessment will provide the opportunity to observe workers on the job and identify whether the gloves they are presently using provide the performance expected or need to be replaced. The assessment will also reveal whether workers wear hand protection for the duration of the shift.

To ensure that workers are compliant, they should receive training any time the company provides new hand protection products so they understand why they have new gloves, when and how they should be used, the product’s benefits and expected results. Glove boards, product use assessment and continued education can help ensure product acceptance and correct long-term use. With today’s technology and knowledge about hand protection, there is simply no reason not to keep gloves on.

What are fingerless gloves and what are they called?

Fashion does not stand still and new styles of things or their names are constantly being invented. Fashionable today pullover, sweatshirt and hoodie, earlier would have been called simply a sweater. But due to the difference in the style of clothing, different names were invented.

And this feature applies not only to outer or basic clothing, ordinary gloves have also entered this cycle of names. And one of their varieties is fingerless gloves.

Fingerless gloves

Fingerless gloves are divided into men and women.And women, in turn, are divided into long, leather and knitted. The first mentions of this wardrobe item were in Ancient Egypt. There they served as an indicator of wealth and power.

There are 2 types of fingerless gloves:

• mitts – more like a sleeve, with a separate element for the thumb. They are attached either due to the elasticity of the tissue, or membranes are made between the fingers;

REFERENCE! The name of the mitts was given in France in the 18th century.Then the ladies of the court wore them as an addition to luxurious dresses, and the working class with their help protected their hands while working. Materials for both classes were appropriate.

• Glovelettes are the younger counterparts of mitts. Instead of webbing, Glovelettes have “cropped” toes. These fingers reach the middle of the phalanx, and were invented in the society of American informals at the end of the 20th century.

REFERENCE! Later, glovelettes were common among athletes, show business stars, bikers and at fashion shows.For every event, a matching style of fingerless gloves has been invented.

Ladies

Women love both types of fingerless gloves. They are practical, beautiful, and elegant in evening dresses. Of course, if a girl wants to add boldness to her look, she chooses leather products, and if she wants to emphasize femininity – lace or openwork knitting in winter.

In addition to gloves for evening and wedding dresses, mitts and glovelettes are available in knitted versions.This model will warm your pens in a cool winter and will be a great addition to a cozy winter photo shoot. Therefore, fingerless gloves have become more of a decorative attribute. There are several of them in the women’s wardrobe:

• mitts with jumpers;
• Classic Glovelettes;
• Glovelettes with clip-on mitten. This option looks stylish, and if your open fingers get cold, just cover them with a mitten;
• pipe gloves – more like a long sleeve.They have neither webbing nor a compartment for the thumb;
• short glovelettes – ending just above the wrist.

Long, knitted, leather

Short leather or suede fingerless gloves most often become an addition to a brutal feminine look. They are combined with jeans, rough boots and a leather jacket. They serve as part of a biker or rocker style, but often such models are found in combination with a delicate dress. So girls play in a rough-tender contrast, emphasizing femininity and fragility.

REFERENCE! A kind of short leather glovelettes – gloves for driving a car. Cutouts are made on them in the knuckle area, this does not interfere with the bending of the arm. This model eliminates the sliding of the hands on the steering wheel, and does not allow the hands to get tired quickly.

Knitted fingerless gloves are found in winter-spring and late autumn. They become a stylish accessory for a walk or photo shoot. Warm models with clip-on mittens keep you warm on frosty days, and allow you to free your fingers at any time to answer a phone call, have hot tea on the street or urgently write down important information.

Winter mitts made of thick yarn or soft cashmere, combined with knitted clothes, down jacket, fur coat and sheepskin coat.

Long warm mitts look harmonious with sleeves ¾, especially on outerwear. Slim or openwork elongated models are suitable for an evening celebration or a wedding dress.

Elongated fingerless gloves are worn so that a piece of skin on the forearm is exposed, of course, if the weather permits. This technique adds femininity to the image.The second option is to choose very long mitts, combine them with a shortened sleeve so that the pipe forms folds. This method will emphasize the fragility of the girl.

Men’s without fingers

For men they make 2 types of glovelettes – leather and sports. The first help when driving a car or bike. They blend harmoniously with leather jackets or denim.

REFERENCE! Fingerless gloves are also featured in children’s wardrobe. These are either models with cropped toes, or with a clip-on mitten.

Sports men’s variants allow the hand to not slip when working with iron. They also protect from rubbing corns, which often happens when working with a lot of weight.

Once an essential accessory for informals, bikers and drivers, glovelettes are becoming one of the favorite attributes of true fashionistas.Glovelets are a type of glove with clipped fingers. They are often associated with the image of a “bad girl”, however, this accessory always adds mischief and playfulness to the image.

They are very similar to mitts, which are held on the hand by the jumper on the thumb. Simply put, glovelets are fingerless gloves, and mitts are fingerless mittens. Another similar accessory is hand gaiters, they do not have fingers at all and are held on the hands due to the elasticity of the material.

Fingerless gloves were invented in the USA, they were worn exclusively by low-income people for whom new clothes were an unattainable dream. After the gloveletts were recognized by the bulk of people, they began to improve. One of these innovations was small holes in the palms of leather gloves without fingers (a kind of ventilation). Bikers and cyclists began to wear this accessory en masse because it combined practicality and convenience. Gloves did not restrain finger movements, protected hands from rubbing against the steering wheel, and the holes allowed the skin to breathe.

Metalists, informals and punks also became fans of leather glovellets. Cut-off gloves have become one of their hallmarks. People who were against the rules imposed by the public wore leather glovelettes, thereby emphasizing their depravity. Rock musicians at their concerts wore leather fingerless gloves, decorated with all kinds of spikes and rivets. This gave their image rigidity and severity. The accessory has become not only an element of clothing, but also an integral part of the image.

Only some time later, the English singer Nick Kershau first put on knitted glovelettes, after which all the fashionistas of the world realized that these gloves can also warm up.

Today they are adorned with various decorations, ranging from romantic bows to metal spikes. Glovelettes no longer evoke associations associated with protest. This accessory was not overlooked by the celebrity women of fashion.

What to wear glovelettes with in 2021 (fingerless gloves)?

One of the most popular fingerless gloves in 2021 are leather models.They are often used to create glam rock or rock looks. They go well with ripped jeans, short shorts, leather jackets, leather trousers, ankle boots.

These gloves fit well in casual as well as sporty styles. A tandem of leather glovelettes with a long scarf will look very interesting.

Some models can be made of lace, they will serve as an excellent wedding option and complement the image of the bride.

Knitted gloves are an alternative to not very comfortable mittens, they will warm you in winter cold and refresh your look.Satin models can be combined with evening dresses. They will bring brightness to any outfit!

Fingerless gloves were also liked by athletes. In biathlon, cycling or archery, a strong finger grip is needed, so full gloves will get in the way. Sports gloveletts came to the rescue. They can also be seen on the streets to complement the athletic look. It is very convenient to ride a motorcycle or moped in such products.

Summary of the article:

Many, probably, paid attention to gloves with cut fingers in clothing stores.They come in different types and from different materials: beautiful lace and leather, woolen and made of mesh. But what is their purpose is not clear to everyone, because they do not really warm their hands, why then wear such? Below we want to talk about fingerless gloves: what they are called, where they are used and what is the difference. So that you know if you need these or whether it is better to buy ordinary ones.

Clothes for hands

Gloves with clipped fingers or mitts (where only the thumb has its hole) and glovelettes (where each finger has its own hole) are not at all an invention of modern fashion designers.When exactly they appeared – no one will say, but the first mentions are found in the early 19th century. Then they were used by peasants to work in the cold on the street.

Later, however, French fashionistas from high society began to wear mitts. They were made for these purposes from thin lace or silk. Ladies decorated their wrists with them when going out to a gala reception, or during everyday walks. It turned out to be very convenient, because you could not remove your favorite rings.

In the 80s of the 20th century, the punk and rock movements became fashionable glovelettes, as they are convenient for playing various musical instruments.Then they were an integral attribute of bikers.

Today, mitts and glovelets are back again, worn by girls who want to look stylish, athletes, military and tourists. Modern designers have a somewhat variety of lineup and now mitts are of three types:

1. Regular without fingers;
2. With a clip-on mitten;
3. Without compartment for palms and fingers – “Tubes”.

Well, the material, length and color are very diverse, depending on the purpose.

Gloveletts for sports

This is a separate category of products, made taking into account the characteristics of the sport in which they will be used. Wear them:

• Racers and cyclists for a comfortable grip on the handlebars and a rigid wrist restraint in case of falls. They also save hands during races in bad weather;
• Mixed martial arts fighters for fist protection.This is a kind of alternative to boxing gloves, they are called shingarts . They have special plastic or rubber pads to soften the impact and better protect the brush. Especially in the area of ​​the joints. Shingarts quickly gained popularity among wrestlers, as they allow them to preserve the motor abilities of the hand, but at the same time they protect it well;
• Fitness People . The use of glovelets seems to be optional here. But even working in the gym can easily injure your hand.Active power loads lead to the formation of calluses, cracks and scratches on the palms. Dirt can easily get into them and then inflammation will begin. This is what gloves are designed to protect against. For these purposes, ordinary models without pads and inserts are suitable, the main thing is that they hold well on the hand.

It is important to be able to choose the right product, otherwise it will rub or fall off and will no longer be able to fully perform its functions.

Selection guide

It is better to choose gloves in a store where you can try them on.First of all, pay attention to the tailoring quality . If it is leather or leatherette, the integrity of the model must be assessed. The fact is that the more pieces are sewn together, the more likely they will come apart at the seams. Prefer things made from one or two pieces. After all, it will sit tightly on the wrist, plus the loads from operation – it can literally fall apart quickly.

And be sure to check if the mitts have special holes or a mesh for ventilation.If not, your palms will sweat great.

If you decide to make a purchase over the Internet, decide on the size. To do this, you need to measure the circumference of the palm of the dominant hand (usually the right one). Take a tailor’s tape and grab your palm in a circle at the widest point (around the bones), compare the result with the table:

When taking measurements, use the tailor’s tape firmly, but do not squeeze your hand.

Fingerless leather gloves

Leather models are worn by drivers of cars, motorcycles and bicycles, or people who adhere to a certain style of clothing. They cannot be worn under a lace dress or business suit, they are products for everyday, sports or outdoor use.

When purchasing them in the store, remember that after washing, they may shrink. Therefore, when trying on, you need to choose those that will hold on to your hand a little freely.

What are the advantages of these models?

• They are made from natural materials. It can be the skin of a cow, pig or lamb;
• They do not get wet in wet weather, in cold weather they keep warm well, especially if they have additional insulation;
• Suitable for weightlifters, as they allow the palms not to slip when lifting heavy barbells;
• Much stronger than other models. It is difficult to break them, having hooked on a nail, they do not lose their shape longer.

Modern fashion designers have learned to make extremely elegant leather mitts for girls. They are decorated with rhinestones, bows and flowers. These can be worn under a fur coat or sheepskin coat.

Tactical Fingerless Gloves

And a separate view – tactical glovelettes . They are suitable for military, academic or tourist use. Manufacturers of these models usually do not think about the color and design of the product, they are more concerned with the strength of the material, its water resistance and thermal insulation.The color is taken either ordinary black or camouflage.

These products provide good protection for your hands in all conditions, while allowing you to work with outdoor equipment, weapons and equipment with open fingers. You can buy them in special tourist shops, military shops and tourist departments.

So, now you know almost everything about fingerless gloves: what they are called, where they are used and how to choose. This clothing accessory has a universal purpose and is suitable both for girls to go to the ball, and for wrestlers or military men.Perhaps not every thing can boast of such practicality, therefore mitts and glovelets are very popular today.

Alexander McQueen

Elegance replaces coarseness

Cool gloves, came quickly. I’ve been riding them for a week now. Bottom material, something like a thin split (thin suede), fabric on top (stretch well). Silicone inserts where necessary, convenient.The only thing on the white fabric is dirt, it gets very dirty, you will have to wash them periodically. And so everything is fine, I like it.

Review:

took some more expensive from this supplier and some cheaper, in the end they practically do not differ in anything, maybe only the pads are of a little quality. I took a photo of the inner seams and the material – nothing particularly pleases. In general, if you buy, then handle it very carefully, maybe they will last a bit.

Delivery to Moscow 16 days. Gloves are good, they will definitely last one season, or maybe more, we’ll see. I like the model, it is comfortable and breathable.
I recommend the store, gloves too, deserved 5 points!
