I suppose shoes are laced so as to better fit & secure them to one's feet, so why isn't similar done with gloves?

The only gloves that come to mind with lacing are maybe catcher's mitts and boxing gloves, but even those I'm not entirely certain of.

Edit:
Possibly a nvm edit, as it just struck me that you...Couldn't really tie...Glove laces...? I think? I guess it may depend...

No, you're asking entirely the wrong question. this is all wrong!

Why don't more shoes come with individual toe-boxes like gloves?

I have a pair of shoes with individual toes. They're comfortable and it's very easy to keep my footing in them. It feels like being barefoot except stuff doesn't hurt my feet.

I have them too (Vibram Fivefingers). I think that should be the standard for all shoes, except steel-toed boots.

I agree, but I'd love some Vibrams with individual toe caps.
