A glove stacking apparatus (1, 201) for forming a stack of gloves (100, 285) to be packed into a box (64), the apparatus comprising a receptacle (26) for receiving the stack of gloves 100, the receptacle having: a perimeter wall (24, 25) for containing the stack of gloves; a floor (22, 222) within the perimeter wall for supporting the stack of gloves; and an opening (27) opposite the floor into which additional gloves (70) may be added to the stack of gloves (100, 285) and out of which the formed stack may be removed. The floor is movable relative to the perimeter wall (24, 25), so that, in use the floor (22, 222) may be moved relatively away from the opening (27) so that as gloves (70) are added to the stack of gloves, the perimeter wall continues to contain the stack of gloves; and the floor (22, 222) may be moved relatively toward the opening (27) to remove the stack of gloves (100, 285) from the receptacle (26) through the opening.
