The Risks and Unpleasantness of Sweaty Palms Unfortunately, sweaty hands aren’t just an unpleasant feature for those stuck with them. They also present a safety concern and a long-term health issue.  Gloves serve two purposes: protecting your hands and providing a non-slip grip. If your hands are sweaty inside your gloves and the gloves don’t fit well, you run the risk of losing your grip while working or having the glove slide out of place.  There’s also the  long-term health concerns  attached to sweaty hands in gloves for an extended period.
