The glove features a partially elasticized wrist, a hook and clasp, padded internal knuckle reinforcement, a backside wrist strap tightener, fourchettes, sidewalls, and a knitted cuff sewn at the gauntlet bottom. The cumulation of features on the glove shows a design for use in the sport of skiing.
