Taiwan Glove Museum Introduction
The largest glove in the world is here! The Taiwan Glove Museum was established by Chen Yi-yi, the chairman of Yih Chien Sports Goods Co., the only remaining sewing sports glove factory in Taiwan. It is located in the Sock Industry Park on Sheshi Road in Shetou Township, covering an area of 530 ping. It is the world's only exhibition hall themed around gloves, combining the features of a museum, art gallery, and a tourist factory, creating a comprehensive activity park. The museum exhibits diverse collections, showcasing the professional aspects of glove manufacturing while incorporating artistic creations, resembling a glove art museum. Planned with the operational model of a tourist factory, it includes both dynamic and static displays, as well as DIY classrooms, learning rooms, and a children's play area. There is also a "Global Glove Sales Area" featuring gloves for various purposes, including rare and special gloves from Taiwan. The museum's treasure is the "World’s Largest Glove," measuring 5.8 meters, which is 256 times the size of a regular glove. It is handcrafted stitch by stitch and is said to be the largest in the world, capable of breaking the current record of 2.5 meters held in the United States.
Wow! Did I accidentally stumble into the land of giants? As soon as you step into the Glove Museum, what stands before you is a gigantic glove about two stories high. Don't underestimate it; it holds the Guinness World Record for the largest glove, entirely hand-stitched and taking over three months to complete, with the designs of the gloves being changed periodically! The current design features the style from the 2019 Tanaka Marathon. The founder of the Glove Museum, Mr. Chen Yi-yi, graduated from the Fu-Hsin Trade and Arts School and has always hoped to integrate his creations into his family products, which is why many of the product designs, logos, and even the design of the museum itself reflect his artistic vision.
