Abstract

An oil filter change glove (8) comprises a tubularly shaped, flexible, outer glove member (10) having a flexible pocket (22) with a pocket-rim end (28) thereof attached to a filter-receiving end (20) of the outer glove member to form a pocket interior (30) in a tube interior (12). The pocket is shaped and sized for receiving a filter (44) inserted through the pocket-rim end into the pocket interior and the outer glove member is shaped and sized for receiving a hand inserted through a hand-receiving end (16) into the tube interior for gripping the pocket and the filter enclosed therein for manipulating the filter. A pocket wall is attached to the outer glove member at two seams (36a and b) running longitudinally of the tubularly shaped outer glove member for forming a finger slot (38).
