Restrictions
Gloves are incompatible with the Claws mutation; wearing gloves over a rank 1 or 2 mutation will negate the mutation, and a rank 3 mutation makes gloves unwearable.
Ogres and trolls are too large for gloves, spriggans are too small, and octopodes and felids don't have hands to wear them on.
History
Prior to 0.14, gauntlets and bracers of archery also existed for the hand slot. Also, gloves needed to be removed before changing rings, meaning cursed gloves made it impossible to change your rings.
