We put the leather on the steering wheel now, so no need for the gloves.

Don't want steering wheel rubs on your skin

It's pointless and looks pretty stupid tbqf
My first girlfriend had a fetish for tight leather gloves. I'm probably lucky we broke up before I went on /o/.
Just make sure they match your fedora.

Just make sure you take them off for when you give your wife's bull a handjob so his semen doesn't ruin the grip.

I don't hate them. If you're driving to work, then no, don't wear them, but if you're going out for a nice drive, I don't see why anything that you mindfully incorporate into the experience could be bad. They are just another small part of the drive. When i go for a drive, I like to clean out my air vents with a paintbrush, clean off the windows of the car, and just generally perform certain actions to help me relax and more fully be in the moment. If part of that for you is wearing some driving gloves, then all power to you.

But they were a tradition from the days of varnished wood steering wheels and a lack of power steering that could give you blisters after an hour of spirited driving.
Today they're just for fashion unless you drive an old E-Type or a new Alfa 4C. Padded leather steering wheels and power steering makes them just a fun accessory.

This. Also take them off before you show your wife's kids how to work on your Miata

Synthetic-fibre fingerless cycling mitts.
Absorbent, grippy and slippy as desired, stretchy, and a sweat-wiping patch on the back.
Padded palm as well, so you don't need to worry about wearing your hands on the wheel/gearstick. And they crumple up way small to be crammed into a cupholder.
Far superior to fedora-tier leather memegloves. And they're great for actually cycling, too, which is why I bought the damn things.
Mainly to stop the handlebars callousing my hands to immobility, and to prevent low-speed falls from shredding my hands.

A lot of things we use every day are no longer strictly neccesary. I drive a manual because I enjoy the pleasure of mindfully engaging with my car. I think some people just use gloves as another thing that adds to their experience of going for a drive. Even if they serve little or no function, their use is a deliberate, thought-out act that may or may not be a part of what makes the difference between going for a ride and going for a really nice drive.
