Abstract
A ski glove or mitt capable of interlocking engagement with an extension on a strapless ski pole grip has a protective covering with a thumb stall and a finger stall for containing one or more fingers of the skier's hand. An interlock layer, stitched to the back of the protective covering, has a raised padding which surrounds a recess having a shape conforming to the shape of the grip extension for snugly seating the grip extension. A palmar layer of anti-slip fabric impregnated with a vinyl is stitched to the palm of the protective covering and has a stippled texture which mates with stipples on the grip body. Shock absorption is provided by a padded heel stitched to the heel of the protective covering where the bottom of the skier's hand engages a platform on the ski pole grip.
