The invention relates to an apparatus for measuring the relative difficulty in
donning of a glove. The apparatus contains a glove mount for holding a glove to
be tested in an open donnable position and a device for measuring the effort associated
with donning the glove. The invention also relates to a method for measuring the
effort associated with donning a glove by providing a testing apparatus having
a glove mount and a device for measuring effort associated with donning of a glove,
mounting a glove for testing on the glove mount so the glove is open and donnable,
initializing the testing apparatus, and acquiring data from the device relating
to the effort associated with donning of the glove.
