Taiwan Glove Museum Introduction
The world's largest glove is located here! The Taiwan Glove Museum was founded by Chen Yi-yi, chairman of Yih Chang Sporting Goods Co., the last remaining manufacturer of sewn sporting gloves in Taiwan. It is situated in the Sock Industry Park on She-Shih Road in Shenkang Township, covering an area of 1,760 square meters. This is the only museum in the world dedicated to gloves, combining elements of a museum, art gallery, and a comprehensive tourism factory. The museum features diverse exhibitions like that of a museum, the professionalism of a glove factory, and is intertwined with artistic creations, resembling an art gallery of gloves. The operation model is based on a tourism factory, which includes both static and dynamic displays, as well as DIY workshops, a learning lab, and a children's play area. There is also a "Global Glove Exhibition and Sales Area," which showcases various types of gloves and rare special gloves from Taiwan. The museum's treasure is the impressive "World's Largest Glove," measuring 5.8 meters tall and handcrafted stitch by stitch, making it 256 times larger than an average glove. It is claimed to be the largest in the world, potentially breaking the current record of 2.5 meters set in the United States.
Wow! Have we accidentally entered the land of giants? Upon entering the Glove Museum, a giant glove about two stories tall stands before you. Don't underestimate it; this giant glove holds the Guinness World Record for the largest glove, entirely hand-stitched and taking over three months to complete. The design of the glove is changed periodically! Currently, this giant glove features a design created for the 2019 Tianjin Marathon. The founder of the Glove Museum, Mr. Chen Yi-yi, graduated from a fine arts program and has always hoped to incorporate his creations into his products, which is evident in many product designs, logos, and even the construction of the Glove Museum itself.
