10	->''"I spend a lot of time hanging off things, I invented these. Intelligent gloves. [...] 'Cause I thought to myself, 'What's the problem with hanging on?' It's all the friction and the weight and the burns. So I got rid of that. [...] The glove takes all my weight. All the weight is in the glove, so nothing burns, nothing pulls, nothing hurts. All the mass and density and [gravity] exists in the glove, not in you."''
11	-->-- '''The Doctor''' explains his latest gizmo to Ruby Sunday, ''Series/DoctorWho'', "[[Recap/DoctorWho2023CSTheChurchOnRubyRoad The Church on Ruby Road]]"

13	Gloves that enable the wearer to do cool stuff. It may be used as PhlebotinumHandlingEquipment.

15	See also PowerFist (basically the weaponized brother), TrickedOutShoes (the shoe counterpart), SuperWristGadget (and {{Gadget Watch\|es}}), ElectricJoybuzzer, ArmCannon, and RingOfPower. HighClassGloves are for elegance instead of cool abilities but on a character who is SilkHidingSteel they could be both. See also MagicalAccessory for other pieces of cool stuff enabling jewelry and trinkets.

17	!!Examples:
18	[[foldercontrol]]
19
20	[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
21	* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'': Rukia's skull symboled glove that lets her separate Ichigo's soul from his body to fight Hollows (he later gets a license, letting him do it himself) and the Quincy Sanrei Glove which makes using their abilities ''harder'' but is good for training (especially [[SuperMode if they take it off]] [[DePower but only for a while, then it's very bad]]).
22	* ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'':
23	** Roy Mustang has gloves that allow him to [[PlayingWithFire create large amounts of fire]] by [[FingerSnapLighter snapping his fingers]], since his gloves have an [[HermeticMagic alchemical circle]] inscribed on the back of the hand, allowing him to transmute the air around his target into flammable gases, and is made out of a special cloth, which allows him to make sparks (and ignite aforementioned gases into a fireball).[[WeaksauceWeakness They're also utterly (yet entirely understandably) useless if they're wet.]]
24	** Most of the other State Alchemists also wear gloves/gauntlets with their specialty Alchemy circle inscribed. Alex Louis Armstrong would be another notable example, with his dual purpose, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cestus_(boxing) cestus]]-esque gauntlets. Just as good for punching as using alchemy!
25	* Subaru's Swordbreaker, a sleek glove introduced in ''Manga/MagicalRecordLyricalNanohaForce'' that serves as a defensive complement to her PowerFist. Its main purpose is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, as she showed during her melee with Veyron [[BarehandedBladeBlock when she caught his Divider with her glove]] and [[WreckedWeapon proceeded to crush it]].
26	* ''Manga/{{Plunderer}}'' has Jail Murdoh's Ballot, a set of gloves that allow him to [[ExtraOreDinary conjure iron]] in whatever form he wants.
27	* ''Manga/PokemonAdventures'':
28	** Lt. Surge has (supposedly) fingerless gloves that insulate electricity, allowing him to easily handle his electric Pokémon. After Red beats him, he takes them for himself and puts them to good use by enabling him to preemptively charge his Pika's Thunderbolt before even releasing him from his Pokeball. It's revealed in "The Mt. Silver Training" that the gloves actually have an invisible lining on the fingers to only make them ''look'' like fingerless gloves, which is about as literal as you can make a HandWave as possible.
29	** Years later, Black has his own set of insulating gloves he can use to handle electricity or alternatively provide a better grip for himself. This time, they're actually just black, full-fingered gloves.
30	[[/folder]]
31
32	[[folder:Comic Books]]
33	* In ''ComicBook/AmericanFlagg'', Mandy makes Raul a pair of cybernetic gloves. Their only real feature is opposable thumbs, but when you're a housecat, that's enough.
34	* Goldenglove I and II from ''ComicBook/AstroCity'', with gloves taken from a UFO crash.
35	* ''Franchise/TheDCU'':
36	** Usually overshadowed by his utility belt, but ComicBook/{{Batman}} has more than a couple spare tools in his gloves. Played straight with ComicBook/{{Nightwing}}, who carries all his gear in pouch rings on his gloves and boots in lieu of the belt. When ComicBook/{{Azrael}} took up the role of Batman, his metallic gauntlets had a number of (much more lethal) gadgets built in; these later become part of ComicBook/{{Manhunter\|DCComics}}'s arsenal.
37	** Lady Tiger Fist, an enemy of the Batman of Japan in ''[[ComicBook/BatmanGrantMorrison Batman Incorporated]]'', initially appears to have a tiger on each side of her chair and is stroking the back of their necks. It turns out that they're headless robot tigers, and she's wearing robotic tiger-head gloves which bite.
38	** The Love Glove, a member of the second Brotherhood of Dada in ''ComicBook/DoomPatrol'' has the ability to use several magical gloves from the psychedelic Glove Tree, such as the Love Glove, the Shove Glove, and the Tech Glove.
39	** In the {{Elseworld}} story ''ComicBook/TheNail'', the Joker is handed a pair of high-tech gloves with functions like energy blasts and telekinesis, which he uses to kill Robin and Batgirl while [[ForcedToWatch forcing Batman to watch]]. After his death, Batman and Catwoman (having taken up the identity of Batwoman) each wields one of the gloves during the final battle.
40	** Hyssa's Fist, a demonic gauntlet that appeared in one issue of ''Comicbook/Superboy1994'' during the ''Comicbook/DayOfJudgement'' CrisisCrossover. It increases the wearer's abilities and gives them energy blasts, but also causes vivid hallucinations that corrupt them. When Guardian wears it, he thinks he's back in WWII and Superboy is Captain Nazi Jr., and when Kon-El wears it, he begins turning into [[EvilTwin Black Zero]].
41	* ''Franchise/MarvelUniverse'':
42	** ComicBook/TheInfinityGauntlet is built to hold six different cosmic artefacts at once. When completed, it basically makes you omnipotent -- can't get much more tricked out than that.
43	** Baron Wolfgang von Stucker of Hydra wields the Satan Claw, a metal gauntlet that amplifies his strength and emits powerful electrical shocks.
44	* Emerald Gauntlet from ''ComicBook/PS238''. His gloves (and those of his father) act like Green Lantern Rings, fitting for a ComicBook/GreenLantern {{Expy}}. Another student, Angie, has her "Power Glove", which contains all kinds of tools an 11-year-old GadgeteerGenius finds useful, like various screwdrivers, a dremel... and a squirt gun.
45	[[/folder]]
46
47	[[folder:Fan Works]]
48	* In ''Fanfic/TorqueJakAndDaxter'', Keira designs an eco glove that can deliver a nasty shock to anyone that gets past her gun. Comes in handy when she is nearly taken prisoner by [[spoiler:Jak]].
49	[[/folder]]
50
51	[[folder:Film -- Live-Action]]
52	* In ''Film/BeautyAndTheBeast1946'', when Beauty gets homesick, the Beast gives Beauty a glove that lets her teleport anywhere she wants.
53	* In the climax of ''Film/BeautyInvestigator'', ActionGirl protagonist Min-feng seemingly whips out a weaponized dart-shooting gauntlet from out of nowhere (seriously, the movie never shows this weapon at any other point, she just takes it out as if it's with her the whole time) during a shootout, which proves to be extremely handy because the darts are apparently loaded with C4, allowing her to blow up vehicles full of mooks.
54	* The BigBad of ''Film/ButterflyAndSword'' has a clawed gauntlet which he launches at the protagonists in the climactic final battle. It can be summoned back to him after being launched.
55	* ''Film/InglouriousBasterds'' features a gun-glove -- a glove that fires when you punch someone. TruthInTelevision, [[http://www.nww2m.com/2011/09/weird-weapon-with-a-hollywood-connection/ by the way]].
56	* ''Film/{{Polar}}'': In the AbandonedWarehouse scene, Duncan Vizla uses gloves with {{Laser Sight}}s on the fingers to aim the automated fifty calibre machine guns he uses to ambush the [[ContractOnTheHitman hit team sent after him]].
57	* In ''Film/SonicTheHedgehog2020'' and ''Film/SonicTheHedgehog22022'', Dr. Robotnik uses gloves with built-in keypads (on both the back and the palm) to remotely control his robots and other technology.
58	* ''Film/TheWizard'' spawned one of the most famous and [[MemeticMutation memetic]] examples: "I love the Power Glove. [[TotallyRadical It's so bad]]." This was product placement for an actual Power Glove (see the Real Life section).
59	[[/folder]]
60
61	[[folder:Literature]]
62	* Set in ''Literature/CreaturesOfLightAndDarkness'' has a glove that, once worn, expands to cover the entire body in an armored mesh.
63	* ''Literature/TheDreamsideRoad'': Orson's left glove houses the controls for all of his electrical defenses, tasers, and flashbangs, as well as for his repulsor boot.
64	* Warden Carlos Ramirez of ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'' wears a gauntlet covered in Aztec or possibly Olmec pictograms. He uses it as a focus for a shield spell, like Harry's bracelet.
65	* ''Literature/{{Durarara}}'': Celty gives Shizuo special gloves that protect him from sharp blades.
66	* Agni in ''Literature/LordOfLight'' has a glove that allows him to use the Fire Wand without burning his hand off.
67	* ''Literature/{{Xanth}}'': In ''Centaur Aisle'', Smash Ogre gets a pair of metal gauntlets that drastically improves his namesake ability. They're not magical, but their solid construction allows him to apply more force. It's a ''very'' good thing he's a good guy.
68	[[/folder]]
69
70	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
71	* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
72	** In "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS30E17E18TheEndOfTime The End of Time]]", [[spoiler:Rassilon]] has a Gauntlet [[DoomyDoomsOfDoom of DOOM]] with which he can disintegrate people who disagree with him. He also uses it to [[spoiler:restore humanity back to normal]] as a power move when the Master threatens him.
73	** "[[Recap/DoctorWho2023CSTheChurchOnRubyRoad The Church on Ruby Road]]" introduces a new gadget of the Doctor's that lets its wearer keep their grip on anything without growing fatigued, by concentrating the wearer's mass and weight into them. Its use is twofold: first, they can make the wearer near-weightless which he demonstrates by carefreely swinging on a rope ladder one-handed, several hundred feet above the ground. Secondly, the gloves can be reversed to dramatically increase their mass, which he first uses to escape the Goblin ship with Ruby, and later uses to [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice drag the ship onto a church spire]].
74	* ''Series/OddSquad'': A lot of villains in Odd Squad's RoguesGallery wear these kinds of gloves.
75	** Dr. Soup from the ''Shmumberman'' comics has a variant of this, wearing soup cans on his hands that enable him to shoot soup at his enemies. If they are removed from his hands, then he is rendered powerless.
76	** Freeze Ray Ray, a villain with [[AnIcePerson ice powers,]] has the ability to freeze any agent in a block of ice by firing a beam from his left glove.
77	** The gloves that Sister Zero and Brother Zero both wear enable them to attack people or objects at will, based on what mathematical operation is engraved on the left glove and what number is engraved on the right glove. As such, their powers can range from having their targets NoSell their attacks to doing collateral damage.
78	** Jamie Jam wears a pair of gloves that have jam lids on them. When removed, she is able to attack people or objects and cover them in jam.
79	** In "[[Recap/OddSquadS3E24MissionOPossibleNatureOfTheSandBeast Nature of the Sandbeast]]", Osmerelda's story involves Dr. Dry wearing "shovel gloves" that allow him to dig under the electrical fence and get to the chicken coop where the Sandbeast's golden egg is located.
80	* [[Recap/RedDwarfSeasonVTheInquisitor The Inquisitor]] in ''Series/RedDwarf'' has a time-manipulating gauntlet, which can transport its user in time, freeze other people in place or erase them from history entirely, and of course has an obligatory DeathRay.
81	* In ''Series/Runaways2017'': Chase designs weapons like this that he calls "Fistagons". They fire energy when pointing them at a target and making a fist.
82	* In ''Series/StargateSG1'', the "[[http://www.stargate-sg1-solutions.com/wiki/Ribbon_Device Goa'uld ribbon device]]".
83	* In ''Series/Supergirl2015'', when Winn returns from the 30th century, he reveals that, being an ordinary squishy human, the Legion made him a glove that grants him some of the powers of Nia's distant descendant Nura Nal (Dream Girl).
84	* ''Series/{{Torchwood}}'''s Resurrection Gauntlet, a glove that brings people back to life, ''usually'' for a minute or two.
85	[[/folder]]
86
87	[[folder:Music Videos]]
88	* Yet another Power Glove appearance: in the music video for "Na Na Na" by Music/MyChemicalRomance, the Killjoys wield Power Gloves and laser blasters.
89	[[/folder]]
90
91	[[folder:Mythology and Religion]]
92	* Thor's iron gloves from Myth/NorseMythology, needed to handle Mjölnir.
93	[[/folder]]
94
95	[[folder:Pinball]]
96	* ''Pinball/JohnnyMnemonic'' has a magnetic glove that captures balls in order to place them on the Matrix for an award.
97	[[/folder]]
98
99	[[folder:Podcasts]]
100	* ''Podcast/QuestInShow'': Prose Ethlina has dragon-scale climbing gloves. They are sharp enough to cut through rock like it were cake. When on a mission to burgle the queen’s chambers, she uses them to scale the castle wall.
101	[[/folder]]
102
103	[[folder:Professional Wrestling]]
104	* There is/was the "Coal Miner's Glove" Gimmick Match, where said glove was on a pole (or hidden in one of several boxes). If you got the glove you could put it on and hit your opponent with it. Presumably that's better than just hitting them with your fist. Even a "normal" glove allows you to punch harder by reducing the damage to the skin on your knuckles, and thus the pain.
105	[[/folder]]
106
107	[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
108	* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' has had many magical gauntlets and gloves over the years with a variety of powers, as well as a few spells -- Gauntlet ('[[DeflectorShields wall of force]]'-like impenetrable glove), Khidell's Glamour Glove (protection vs. contact poisons and magic).
109	[[/folder]]
110
111	[[folder:Video Games]]
112	* ''VideoGame/BioShock2'': The Hack Tool does ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, in addition to deploying sentries.
113	* The Wraithguard gauntlet from ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIIMorrowind'' [[PhlebotinumHandlingEquipment allows you to handle the Tools of Kagrenac]] without [[ArtifactOfDoom dying]]. It's a [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame Dwemer]] gauntlet with protective enchantments and one of the best gauntlet armor ratings in the game.
114	* ''VideoGame/{{HAAK}}'': In the first area, [[UrbanRuins the Sanho Ruins]], [[PlayerCharacter Haak]] locates some gloves that are able to be used in melee combat, and can also shoot out energy grappling hooks.
115	* ''VideoGame/HalfLifeAlyx'' gives us the Gravity Gloves, or "Russells", as their inventor likes to call them. As their name implies, they're similar in function to (and may well even be related to) [[VideoGame/HalfLife2 the Gravity Gun]], allowing the player to draw small objects towards them with remarkable accuracy. They also have LED displays for health, ammo, and resin.
116	* The Gauntlets of the Necromancer in ''VideoGame/{{Heretic}}'' blast constant green rays of harmful magic at the user's will. When [[AmplifierArtifact enhanced by the Tome of Power]], the rays become red, reach farther, and [[LifeDrain transfer the target's life force to the wearer]].
117	* "Power gloves" are worn by the heroes of ''VideoGame/JumpStartAdventures6thGradeMissionEarthquest''. They provide the game menu for the player but don't seem to have any kind of useful function in-universe.
118	* ''VideoGame/KingdomOfLoathing'' has the Powerful Glove, a reference to the real-life Nintendo Power Glove. It comes with some decent enchantments, like boosts to weapon and spell damage, but more importantly, it also unlocks "cheat-codes"[[note]]Not real {{Cheat Code}}s per-se, but rather abilities stylized as such[[/note]] like Triple Size (significantly boost your stats temporarily) and Shrink Enemy (halve an enemy's HP, attack, and defense values).
119	* ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' has had many glove items over the course of its history:
120	** ''VideoGame/ZeldaIITheAdventureOfLink'' has the Handy Glove, allowing you to break blocks with your sword.
121	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast'' has the Power Glove, enabling you to lift light-colored rocks, and the Titan's Mitt, enabling you to lift dark-colored rocks. Both are required to access certain areas.
122	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'' has the Silver Gauntlets, allowing you to lift rocks and move large blocks; and the Golden Gauntlets, allowing you to lift and throw aside huge rock pillars.
123	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaLinksAwakening'' and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOracleGames Oracle of Ages]]'' have the Power Glove, an upgrade to the Power Bracelet allowing big blue statues to be lifted, and let you lift and throw giant statues that are found in a few places.
124	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaFourSwords'' and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOracleGames Oracle of Seasons]]'' have the Magnetic Gloves, allowing you to attract or repel magnetized objects.
125	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheMinishCap'' has the Mole Mitts, allowing you to dig rapidly through earth.
126	** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'' has Digging Mitts and Mogma Mitts used for digging.
127	** ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames Link: Faces of Evil]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames Zelda: Wand of Gamelon]]'' also have the Power Glove, which allows your sword strikes to function as bomb explosions, but at the cost of 10 rubies per use.
128	* ''VideoGame/MegaManZero4'' has the Z-Knuckle, which allows Zero to rip weapons right out of his enemies' hands (usually while destroying the enemy in the process) and use them.
129	* ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroesIII'': The Death Glove gives Travis the ability to use special attacks from ''Travis Strikes Again'', as well as functioning as a TransformationTrinket for his Full Armor form.
130	* The Oni Gauntlet from ''VideoGame/{{Onimusha}}'' series, most notably ''[[VideoGame/OnimushaWarlords Warlords]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/Onimusha3DemonSiege Demon Siege]]''. It allows you to absorb souls.
131	* Torvald from ''VideoGame/{{Paladins}}'' wields a massive, runic stone gauntlet that he made himself. While it looks large enough to be a PowerFist, its shoots energy beams and projects shields instead of punching. For his Ultimate, his gauntlet fires a massive blast that sends enemies [[BlownAcrossTheRoom flying over the horizon]].
132	* In ''VideoGame/RatchetAndClank'', Ratchet gets several gloves that dispense different projectiles, from bombs to mines to [[BeeBeeGun Robotic Beehives]].
133	* ''VideoGame/{{Runescape}}'' has several kinds of special gloves like basic ice gloves needed to pick up some of the hot items.
134	* The demon-summoning COMP in several ''Franchise/ShinMegamiTensei'' games is wrist-mounted.
135	* The Time Manipulation Device in ''VideoGame/{{Singularity}}''.
136	* Precis from ''VideoGame/StarOceanTheSecondStory'' has one attached to her backpack. There are also pickpocketing gloves.
137	* Crimson Viper from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'' has gloves that can emit electrical bursts as part of her spy equipment, coupled with a pair of fire-spitting TrickedOutShoes.
138	* ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' has a few of these:
139	** The Heavy seems to be a collector of Tricked-Out Gloves. It helps that he's the bruiser of [=TF2=]. His [[FunWithAcronyms Gloves of Running Urgently]] increases movement speed. His [[FunWithAcronyms Killing Gloves of Boxing]] grant him critical hits for a short time if he scores a kill with them. He also has [[RuleOfCool gloves that make people explode]], [[BearsAreBadNews gloves made from bear paws]], oversized metal gauntlets that protect him from bullets, and pointy brass knuckles that turn him into a LightningBruiser. Hell, his default gloves, as well as his Christmas Mittens, allow him to kill people with a FingerGun!
140	** There are cosmetic items that qualify, such as the Medic's Quadwrangler, which supposedly "siphons blood from your heart, where it is not needed, to your shooting arm, where it is!"
141	* The ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}''-inspired ''Twin Sector'' replaces the Portal gun with a pair of telekinetic gloves, one of which attracts objects and one of which repels them.
142	* ''VideoGame/{{Warcraft}} III'' has the campaign-only Gloves of Spell Mastery, which allows the emulation of the Spell Breaker unit's Control Magic spell, which instantly turns a summoned unit to your side.
143	* Alexander in ''VideoGame/TheWatchmaker2018'' has a glove that grants him magnetic powers.
144	* ''VideoGame/{{Wizardry}} IV'''s backstory includes the Mythril Gauntlet, a glove that is the only thing powerful enough to allow its wearer to safely handle [[{{MacGuffin}} the Amulet]] without being disintegrated.
145	[[/folder]]
146
147	[[folder:Visual Novels]]
148	* ''Franchise/AceAttorney'': Athena Cykes from ''[[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyDualDestinies Dual Destinies]]'' and ''[[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneySpiritOfJustice Spirit of Justice]]'' has a three-fingered glove that wraps around her right thumb, index, and middle fingers. She uses it to [[HolographicTerminal interact with the holograms that the little computer around her neck, Widget, projects]].
149	* The main premise of ''VisualNovel/CiconiaWhenTheyCry'' revolves around the invention of the Gauntlet, an armored glove worn on the left arm that [[OneManArmy grants a single individual several powers]] such as {{flight}}, [[BagOfHolding access to a pocket dimension filled with tons of weaponry]], and [[DeflectorShields the creation of nearly indestructible barriers]], making all current military power obsolete.
150	[[/folder]]
151
152	[[folder:Webcomics]]
153	* Tedd of ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'' made a [[http://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=1547 gauntlet]] designed to gradually store the wearer's magic, then give it back in a short burst. Any resemblance to the Power Glove is [[https://www.egscomics.com/sketchbook/2013-01-22 strictly coincidence.]]
154	* Blarouse from ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod'' has a launching glove for her Boomerang Ball.
155	* ''Webcomic/VanVonHunter'': Van's sidekick obtains a pair of "Gloves of Lifting", which allows her to lift almost any load. She doesn't get any other physical capabilities you would find related to such strength (she can't punch, throw, push, or crush with super-strength), just lifting. Although lifting things and then dropping them on opponents is an option.
156	[[/folder]]
157
158	[[folder:Web Videos]]
159	* ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights'' revolves around the search for the Gauntlet of Malachite, which is supposed to have magical powers, although WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic just wants to sell it. [[spoiler:However, the glove itself is meaningless, the important thing is the gem on it, which allows one to use magic without [[CastFromHitPoints penalty]]. In fact when they actually find it the gem has been moved... onto a [[Film/TheWizard Power Glove]]. Complete with ShoutOut.]]
160	[[/folder]]
161
162	[[folder:Western Animation]]
163	* A recurring villain of ''WesternAnimation/AladdinTheSeries'', Mozenrath, is practically built on this trope -- all his magical powers come from a life-draining gauntlet.
164	* ''WesternAnimation/ApolloGauntlet''
165	* Inverted by the Dai Li of ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'': their gloves are nothing more than specially cut pieces of rock worn over the hands, but since the wearers are ''Earthbenders'' they can be used for everything from [[FingerFirearms finger bullets]] to [[HelpingHands grabbing opponents from a distance]].
166	* One episode of ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' revolves around a villain trying to obtain the Reality Gauntlet, a homage to ComicBook/TheInfinityGauntlet mentioned above.
167	* In one ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' short, WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse gets his trademark WhiteGloves mixed up with a magician's, which enables him to do magic tricks.
168	* ''WesternAnimation/InvasionAmerica'' has the Exotar, which gives the hero [[MindOverMatter telekinetic powers]].
169	* In ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'', Shego's energy blast powers were originally [[WordOfGod said]] to be generated by her gloves. This was later {{retcon}}ned into her having genuine superpowers, along with the rest of her family.
170	* ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'': A controller similar to the RealLife NES Power Glove is advertised in a video game tournament as a prize for Mordecai and Skips (with Rigby later replacing the latter) to compete for. It's advertised the same way. It also works the same way, which is to say, not at all.
171	* In ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretSaturdays'', Doc fights with the Battle Glove, which is able to channel power into his right fist. The four crystals on the knuckles also have individual powers: freezing, heating, shocking, and sonic vibrations.
172	* ''WesternAnimation/SwatKats'': The SWAT Kats' Glovatrix. In the first season, they're [[SuperWristGadget Super Wrist-Gadgets]]; in the second season, they're {{Power Fist}}s.
173	[[/folder]]
174
175	[[folder:Real Life]]
176	* The [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Glove Power Glove]], a gaming peripheral for the [[Platform/NintendoEntertainmentSystem NES]], as famously featured in ''Film/TheWizard''. It's a cool-looking glove that has motion sensors in the fist itself! [[AwesomeButImpractical Sadly, its motion sensors hardly work, making it useless]]. At least it has a controller at the top.
177	** The [[SuperPrototype original version of the device]] (the Data Glove) created by an inventor was a better example and worked more or less perfectly, but was sadly far too expensive to be mass-produced and they were only given five months to turn it into an affordable product, resulting in the problem-filled final version of it.
178	** The Platform/PlayStation and the Platform/Nintendo64 also had a glove controller that was simply called "The Glove". It worked better than its predecessor but never had the power of memes to be able to surface from obscurity.
179	* How about gutting a real Power Glove and filling it with modern technology to allow it to control complex camera operations remotely? Dillon Markey of the ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' staff did [[http://uproxx.com/gammasquad/2015/01/robot-chicken-power-glove-nintendo/ exactly that]].
