Abstract
A glove for wearing on a user's hand to grip an object, such as a barbell. The glove has a palm side which carries a plurality of pads that have gripping surfaces. The pads are positioned in spaced-apart relationship and connected together by a flexible connecting layer. The connecting layer is sufficiently thinner than the pads to allow the glove and user's hand to be comfortably curled about and uncurled from a object while enabling a secure grip. Valleys between the pads serve to recess the connecting layer below the gripping surfaces.
