During Monsoon season (which just ended) here, a glove is pretty much a requirement, unless the a/c is on full blast. Even then, the humidity can stay high. So I've started wearing one most of the time now. I don't think I'm going back. I don't wear one all the time, but it's just not worth the constant hand washing and shaft cleaning that I used to do. Of course, my other hand sweats enough that I get my wrap wet. I could probably use a glove on that hand as well!
