Gloves are worn over the hands, and come in several types, from leather to plate. In real life battles a good pair of gloves or gauntlets were essential in combat to prevent fingers or hands from being chopped off by errant blows. Also, a solid plate glove allowed a devastating punch to be delivered to any unarmored area of an opponent. The gloves in Diablo II are not as necessary, but they can provide nice bonuses, including faster attack.
- All gloves require a 2x2 space in your inventory.
- Level: A monster must be this level or higher to drop this base item. Ilvl is used in gambling, sales and other calculations as well.
- Clvl Req: A character must be at least this level to equip the item.

Exceptional[edit]
Exceptional gloves are found only on Nightmare and Hell in Diablo II. In the Expansion they go by item level, and can be dropped by any monster of an equally-high level. This means you'll occasionally see Demonhide, Sharkskin, and possibly even Heavy Bracers dropped in Act Five/Normal.
