Q. When did vinyl gloves first appear?

Answer

Initially, in earlier days, that is during the 1800s, the people of that era discovered satin, and this fabric became popular among the people of those times. However, after satin people were searching for more and discovered other fabrics like leather, nylon and later on around the 1950s they discovered affordable materials that can be used which are now easily available in the market and these are vinyl and fake leather. With this the production of a huge number of gloves that are made of a cheaper fabric is popular. Hence from then onwards, the production of vinyl gloves required for medical purposes and other purposes started and became even cheaper compared to the use of other fabrics.
