Claim:
A glove comprising: a glove body shaped to conformingly fit a hand, the glove body comprising a central body portion and a plurality of finger stalls, each of the finger stalls being longitudinally oriented from a proximate end, proximate to the central body portion, and a distal end, distal to the central body portion, each finger stall having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface made of a material and facing inwardly to form a cavity shaped to conformingly cover a finger of a user; and a plurality of abrasion-resistant elements joined to the inner surface at the distal end of each of the finger stalls so as to contact a fingertip of each finger of a wearer's hand when each of said fingers is inserted in the cavity of each corresponding finger stall, the abrasion-resistant elements being spaced apart and defining channels between them longitudinally oriented with respect to each finger stall, the abrasion-resistant elements being made of a flexible material that is different than the material of the inner surface.
