Moisture trapped under pressure changes how skin behaves. Below is how this mechanism plays out across different environments.
Low temperatures slow skin recovery while moisture stays trapped.
During training and games, gloves and gear heat up quickly and trap sweat. Skin softens under pressure and repeated grip, increasing friction across knuckles, wrists and fingers — often before the gear has fully dried between sessions.

Long sessions in tight gloves create a warm, moist microclimate. As hands cool after exertion, softened skin becomes more sensitive to pressure and friction, increasing cracking and maceration over time.

Frequent hand washing and long glove use lock in warmth and sweat. As skin softens, friction increases — particularly around knuckles and fingertips — making irritation more common during long shifts.

Between washing, chemicals and repetitive hand movements, moisture builds up inside gloves. Heat and friction increase, creating irritation driven by the environment — not just the products used.

Extended glove use combined with acetone, water and heat increases sweat production. Under occlusion, softened skin becomes more sensitive to friction, raising irritation risk during long appointments.

Hands are exposed to moisture, cold and rapid handling. When skin is damp, heat loss accelerates and friction increases during repeated gripping, leading to irritation over time.

Extended glove use across shifting climates traps sweat inside gear. As skin softens, friction rises during weapon handling and equipment work, increasing irritation and cold-related skin problems.

Warm environments increase sweat inside gloves. Combined with dust, oil and grip adjustments, softened skin loses resistance to friction — particularly across palms and fingertips.

Technicians shift between precision and heavy tasks in warm environments. Sweat builds quickly inside gloves, softening skin and increasing friction during fine motor movements throughout the day.

Takeaway:Extended glove wear caused a measurable rise in dermatitis cases, confirming the link between occlusion, sweat, and skin flare-ups.
Summary: Analyzes the long-term impact of glove occlusion on skin health. The study observes measurable skin barrier changes due to moisture and friction inside gloves.
Takeaway: Damp conditions under gloves encourage bacterial growth, worsening eczema symptoms and infections.
Summary: Finds that occlusive glove use in patients with hand eczema leads to an increased presence of Staphylococcus aureus, which may worsen symptoms.
Takeaway: Damp conditions under gloves encourage bacterial growth, worsening eczema symptoms and infections.
Summary: Reviews evidence linking wet-work and glove use to occupational hand dermatitis, with emphasis on how moisture exposure breaks down the skin barrier.
Takeaway: Frequent wet-work combined with gloves significantly increases the risk of chronic dermatitis.
