2. The disposable glove of claim 1, wherein the length of the uncoated beaded cuff and the uncoated cuff portion when measured from an edge of the uncoated beaded cuff in the direction of the finger-receiving receptacles is about 0.25 inch to about 5 inches.

3. The disposable glove of claim 2, wherein the length of the uncoated beaded cuff and the uncoated cuff portion when measured from the edge of the uncoated beaded cuff in the direction of the finger-receiving receptacles is about 2 inches to about 3 inches.

4. The disposable glove of claim 1, wherein the disposable glove comprises natural rubber latex or a synthetic rubber material.

5. The disposable glove of claim 4, wherein the disposable glove comprises a synthetic rubber material, wherein the synthetic rubber material includes polyisoprene, styrene-isoprene-styrene, copolymer blends, polychloroprene, nitrile, vinyl, polyurethane or combinations thereof.

6. The disposable glove of claim 1, wherein the coating comprises a polyacrylate resin emulsion.

7. The disposable glove of claim 1, wherein the coating comprises aloe, moisturizers, anti-bacterial agents, anti-fungal agents or combinations thereof.

A method for making a disposable glove comprising: forming the disposable glove on a former, the disposable glove including a first area and a second area, the first area including a hand area, the hand area including a palm area and a plurality of finger-receiving receptacles, the second area including a wrist-forearm area; dipping the disposable glove into a coating such that the hand area and a portion of the wrist-forearm area are coated with the coating and a portion of the wrist-forearm area remains uncoated; and removing the disposable glove from the former and inverting the disposable glove so that the coating is on an interior surface of the disposable glove and the uncoated portion of the wrist-forearm area reduces glove cuff roll-down when the disposable glove is worn by a user.

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising dipping the disposable glove in the coating a second time such that the uncoated portion of the wrist-forearm area remains uncoated.

11. The method of claim 9, further comprising dipping the disposable glove in a second coating such that the uncoated portion of the wrist-forearm area remains uncoated.

12. The method of claim 9, wherein the uncoated portion of the wrist-forearm area includes a beaded cuff and a cuff portion.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein the length of the uncoated beaded cuff and the uncoated cuff portion when measured from an edge of the uncoated beaded cuff in the direction of the finger-receiving receptacles is about 0.25 inch to about 5 inches.

14. The method of claim 13, wherein the length of the uncoated beaded cuff and the uncoated cuff portion when measured from the edge of the uncoated beaded cuff in the direction of the finger-receiving receptacles is about 2 inches to about 3 inches.

15. The method of claim 9, further comprising dipping the former into a tank containing a natural rubber latex or a synthetic rubber material.

16. The method of claim 15, wherein the tank contains a synthetic rubber material, wherein the synthetic rubber material includes polyisoprene, styrene-isoprene-styrene, copolymer blends, polychloroprene, nitrile, vinyl, polyurethane or combinations thereof.

18. The method of claim 9, wherein the dipping step includes dipping the disposable glove into a coating that comprises aloe, moisturizers, anti-bacterial agents, anti-fungal agents or combinations thereof.

19. The method of claim 1 1, wherein the second coating comprises a polyacrylate resin emulsion.

20. The method of claim 11, wherein the second coating comprises aloe, moisturizers, anti-bacterial agents, anti-fungal agents or combinations thereof.

21. A disposable glove comprising: a flexible body article shaped like a hand comprising finger-receiving receptacles, a palm area and a wrist-forearm area, the wrist-forearm area including a beaded cuff and a cuff portion, the article having an interior surface which comprises a coated region and a substantially uncoated region, wherein the coated region includes the finger-receiving receptacles, the palm area, and a portion of the wrist-forearm area and wherein the substantially uncoated region includes the beaded cuff and the cuff portion, the substantially uncoated region helping to reduce the occurrence of glove cuff roll-down.

22. The disposable glove of claim 21, wherein the uncoated beaded cuff and the uncoated cuff portion are about 0.25 inch to about 5 inches in length when measured from an edge of the beaded cuff in the direction of the finger-receiving receptacles.

23. The disposable glove of claim 22, wherein the uncoated beaded cuff and the uncoated cuff portion are about 2 inches to about 3 inches in length when measured from the edge of the beaded cuff in the direction of the finger-receiving receptacles.

24. The disposable glove of claim 21, wherein the disposable glove comprises natural rubber latex or a synthetic rubber material.

26. The disposable glove of claim 21, wherein the coated region includes a polyacrylate resin emulsion.

27. The disposable glove of claim 21, wherein the coated region includes aloe, moisturizers, anti-bacterial agents, anti-fungal agents or combinations thereof.

28. The disposable glove of claim 21, wherein the coated region contains more than one coating.

29. A disposable glove comprising a first area including a hand area and a second area, the hand area including a palm area and a plurality of finger-receiving receptacles, the second area including a wrist-forearm area, the wrist-forearm area including a beaded cuff and a cuff portion, the disposable glove having a coating on an interior surface of the disposable glove, the coating on the interior surface of the disposable glove covering the first area and a portion of the second area such that the beaded cuff and the cuff portion are substantially uncoated and resistant to glove cuff roll-down.

30. A method for making a disposable glove comprising: forming the disposable glove on a former, the disposable glove including a first area and a second area, the first area including a hand area, the hand area including a palm area and a plurality of finger-receiving receptacles, the second including a wrist-forearm area; dipping the disposable glove into a coating such that the hand area and a portion of the wrist-forearm area are coated with the coating and a portion of the wrist-forearm area remains substantially uncoated; and removing the disposable glove from the former and inverting the disposable glove so that the coating is on an interior surface of the disposable glove and the substantially uncoated portion of the wrist-forearm area reduces glove cuff roll-down when the disposable glove is worn by a user.
