Do you wear gloves when diving?

Gloves are not always required for scuba diving, but they are essential in cold or temperate waters. Many divers typically put on their gloves last because it’s easier to kit up without them. However, this practice can limit their comfort and skill when operating equipment underwater. To improve muscle memory and confidence, it is better to wear gloves earlier in the kitting up process. This way, divers can practice with their gloves on and be better prepared for any in-water tasks.
