No seriously, this is an underappreciated trope and need!
I love the regality of especially like white satin/silken gloves, almost as if the gloves tell a whole deal of superiority by simply acting as the barrier between you and the giant. Just imagining the giant royal having you take them off for him when he focuses on other things. All you can carry are those gloves as you need to clean them for him too. I will not get sidetracked but yes I see the potential of so many scenarios with gloves and hands and tinies.
But I can see a huge appeal in rough, almost gardener/welding/ski like (you know those thick velcroed padded ones?) gloves too. Almost like a calloused hand, just imagine yourself found in the strawberry field of this giant that doesn’t quite know his strength yet you’re padded by the gloves he wears as he inspects you. Only curious yet worries, what are you? Quite oblivious picking you with the dirtied and well worn gloves as he turns you this way and that. There’s something to it and I can’t quite pinpoint it
