Softball is a variant of baseball played with a larger ball on a smaller field.

It was invented in 1887 in Chicago as an indoor game.

It was at various times called indoor baseball, mush ball, playground, softball, kitten ball, and because it was also played by women, ladies' baseball.

The name softball was given to the game in 1926 because the ball used to be soft.

Baseball is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of nine players each, who take turns batting and fielding.

A wetsuit is a garment, usually made of foamed neoprene, which is worn by surfers, divers, windsurfers, canoeists, and others engaged in water sports, providing thermal insulation, abrasion resistance and buoyancy.

The insulation properties depend on bubbles of gas enclosed within the material, which reduce its ability to conduct heat.

The bubbles also give the wetsuit a low density, providing buoyancy in water.

A shoe is an item of footwear intended to protect and comfort the human foot while the wearer is doing various activities.

Shoes are also used as an item of decoration and fashion.

The design of shoes has varied enormously through time and from culture to culture, with appearance originally being tied to function.

Additionally, fashion has often dictated many design elements, such as whether shoes have very high heels or flat ones.

Contemporary footwear in the 2010s varies widely in style, complexity and cost.

Basic sandals may consist of only a thin sole and simple strap and be sold for a low cost.

High fashion shoes made by famous designers may be made of expensive materials, use complex construction and sell for hundreds or even thousands of dollars a pair.

Some shoes are designed for specific purposes, such as boots designed specifically for mountaineering or skiing.

A glove (Middle English from Old English glof) is a garment covering the whole hand.

Gloves have separate sheaths or openings for each finger and the thumb; if there is an opening but no (or a short) covering sheath for each finger they are called fingerless gloves.

Fingerless gloves having one large opening rather than individual openings for each finger are sometimes called gauntlets, though gauntlets are not necessarily fingerless.

Gloves which cover the entire hand or fist but do not have separate finger openings or sheaths are called mittens.

Mittens are warmer than other styles of gloves made of the same material because fingers maintain their warmth better when they are in contact with each other.

Reduced surface area reduces heat loss.
