Gloves are one necessary portion of a player's armor. They come in four forms: simple leather gloves, gauntlets of power (often abbreviated GoP), gauntlets of dexterity (GoD), and gauntlets of fumbling (GoF).
GoP will increase your strength to 25 regardless of their enchantment; GoD will increase your dexterity by their enchantment, so 18 Dex and +5 GoD equal 23 Dex; and GoF will cause you to fumble occasionally and make a lot of noise. As a general rule, spellcasters will want GoD, and combat wombats will want GoP. Most especially, Valkyries will want GoP, as it will allow them to throw Mjollnir and have it return to them. (Whether or not throwing Mjollnir is desirable is an open question of strategy among strong players; see the Mjollnir article. Your opinion on this topic may influence your choice to wish or not wish for gauntlets of power.)
Wearing a cursed pair of gloves prevents you from putting on or removing any rings. However, if you are wearing an uncursed pair of gloves, you can still put on or remove rings without removing your gloves, and wearing gloves does not increase the number of in-game turns required to switch rings.
