Sweat Swipe

Story Behind the Invention

WILLIAMSVILLE, MO — Every athlete, factory worker, and outdoor laborer knows the moment — sweat pouring into their eyes at exactly the wrong time. Jared Hicks has lived that frustration firsthand, and decided to build a solution that keeps you moving without missing a beat.

The Sweat Swipe is a single-finger glove with an absorbent, sponge-like tip designed to quickly and cleanly wipe sweat away from the eyes without stopping the activity at hand. Unlike a towel or wristband that requires both hands and a full pause, the Sweat Swipe stays on the finger and is always within reach. A quick swipe clears the eyes — then the user simply squeezes the soft tip to release the moisture, and it is ready to use again.

The Sweat Swipe is built for durability and repeated use across a wide range of conditions. The absorbent tip is quick-drying and designed for repeated squeezing and reuse throughout a single workout or shift. The breathable glove material is comfortable for extended wear and can be washed and reused, making it a practical and cost-effective solution for gym-goers, athletes, construction workers, factory employees, and anyone who works or trains in the heat.

The Sweat Swipe is currently seeking manufacturing, licensing, and distribution partners. Contact us for more information.
