Embodiment Construction

[0022] The present invention in its preferred form is a glove or mitten as might be typically for cold weather outdoor activities and having a wrist cuff of sufficient length to accommodate a pocket or other means of securement capable of holding and securing a small portable cell telephone.

[0023] In the preferred embodiment as shown in FIG. 2, a typical cold weather glove or mitten 1 is provided with a cuff 2 which generally surrounds and extends past the wrist of the wearer sufficiently far enough to provide a space within the cuff to accommodate a cell phone 5. A pocket 3 is attached to or incorporated into the inner wall of the cuff. As shown in FIG. 3, the pocket is preferably located on the palm side (which is herein also referred to as the “inside”) of the wrist to allow removing the phone from its pocket simultaneously with removing the glove. In such case the phone is already oriented as it is likely to be held by the user. The pocket is sized to snugly fit a typical cell ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a glove or mitten having a pocket or other similar holder for a cell phone positioned against the wrist of the wearer. The pocket has a mouth opening toward the glove wrist so that the phone is easily removed from the pocket either simultaneously with removal of the glove or without requiring the removal of the glove. The location of the phone on the wrist allows the wearer to more readily hear the “ring” of an incoming call or feel an alert if vibration of the phone is used as an incoming call alert.

No. 60 / 727,890, filed Oct. 17, 2005, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates to a glove or mitten having a pocket positioned on the interior wall of the cuff at the wrist of the wearer for carrying a cell phone or similar device and allowing the device to be quickly and easily removed simultaneously with removal of the glove. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] Use of portable cell phones has become nearly universal. Common methods of carrying such phones include dedicated “holsters” or simply placing the phone in the pocket of clothing. However in circumstances such as outdoor use in cold weather where a user is wearing substantially more clothing and hand coverings such as gloves, such methods of carrying a cell phone typically make the phone more difficult to access and may inhibi...
