The glove body is adapted for load and unloads an illumination unit. The illumination unit includes at least one flexible arm which is extended along and above the dorsum side of the glove body from the power source to the light head and out of the outer glove layer through the through slot, such that the light head is selectively adjusted the orientation when the bendable portion of the flexible arm is adjustably bent.
