Gloves are far from the newest decorative element in CS:GO. They were added to the game in 2016 and make a harmonious tandem with one or another knife. Gloves can be obtained from cases, but the chance of getting them is very low, just like with knives. Trying to get one or the other can simply lead to a waste of money. Therefore, it is more profitable to buy them directly on the Steam marketplace or on well-known third-party services.
Whether you earn huge sums of money per month or have decided to save up for in-game cosmetics from your allowance, we've picked out the 15 best CS:GO gloves for every budget.
Economic option
★ Hydra Gloves | Rattler ($58.08 - $331.53)
The reptilian skin texture with the Hydra emblem, and in a swampy-green color scheme, perfectly matches the style of these gloves. Even with the lowest float value, this pair of gloves will be one of the best in the affordable price range.
★ Hand Wraps | Duct Tape ($68.20 - $385.72)
Some may compare the look of the ★ Hand Wraps | Duct Tape to the hand wraps of a homeless person, but for others, it could be an attribute of a fighter participating in underground battles. As we can see, even a skin with a not-so-standout design can have a suitable style.
★ Hand Wraps | Constrictor ($70.46 - $406.46)
The following hand wraps will go well with brown and dark red knives and skins, and will be suitable for those who don't like the Duct Tape option mentioned above.
★ Hand Wraps | Arboreal ($70.60 - $420.44)
The camouflage color scheme of this pair of gloves will fit well into any realistic shooter game, not just CS:GO. It looks really serious and professional.
★ Hydra Gloves | Mangrove ($56.64 - $293.25)
Hydra Gloves | Mangrove will be a good alternative to the Rattler gloves. Not everyone likes reptile skin, and the fabric texture will look more restrained, and it will also be a few dollars cheaper.
It is understandable that Hand Wraps gloves are in this price category. As in real life, most people will choose high-quality leather gloves if they have the money, while hand wraps (boxing wraps) are more associated with martial arts enthusiasts or injuries. The exception could be some designer items.

For the middle class
★ Moto Gloves | Polygon ($152.71 - $1,250.00)

★ Specialist Gloves | Mogul ($165.23 - $1,528.62)
Mogul gloves are unlikely to be suitable for players who prefer terrorist agents. The color scheme of Mogul is simply created for the CT side. It's a very good option in the middle price range.

Bronze Morph gloves boast one of the most unusual color combinations, resembling an oxidized bronze sculpture. They are dedicated to fans of acid-green shades.

The next pair seems to be created either for bikers or rock fans. At the same time, all genius is simple. Black leather and silver easily match with colorful in-game cosmetics.
★ Hand Wraps | CAUTION! ($195.00 - $1,830.00)
The most interesting "wraps" in our list look like someone has wrapped crime scene tape around them. Let your teammates and opponents know who's a threat.
These five gloves are suitable for those who want to look stylish with Factory New quality gloves without spending all the money in the world. You can save up for one or another pair, even with an average salary. At the same time, the entire set looks bright enough to stand out among teammates and to show off to real-life friends.
Battle-Scarred options, of course, will be cheaper, but for example, the leather on ★ Bloodhound Gloves | Charred will turn brown, not black, and will look much worse and older.
For wealthy players
★ Sport Gloves | Pandora's Box ($1,395.86 - $50,954.30)
Our list of the best prestigious gloves will be opened by the purple Pandora's Box. Keep in mind that as Factory New, they will be very, very expensive. But admit it, your CS friends will envy you.
★ Sport Gloves | Vice ($873.21 - $22,405.33)
Sport Gloves | Vice are popular among professional players. You can't buy their skill, but with enough funds, you can at least imitate the best in terms of in-game cosmetics.
★ Sport Gloves | Superconductor ($757.03 - $14,048.82)
Who said expensive always means bright and colorful? Subdued shades of gray with light blue details will look good in an inventory with minimalist skins.
★ Sport Gloves | Amphibious ($573.01 - $7,351.97)
Sport Gloves | Amphibious resemble one of many vintage porcelain pieces thanks to the water pattern. Fans of Eternal Fire, Complexity, and Liquid with stickers from these teams won't refuse a gift in the form of such gloves for their birthday or New Year's.
★ Specialist Gloves | Crimson Kimono ($742.47 - $9,317.35)
The combination of black and black exudes aggression, a tough character, and it's best not to mess with someone wearing such a pair of gloves. The Crimson Kimono is one of the most stylish options for gloves for those who have thousands of extra dollars.
Sport Gloves with a low float value can truly be called a luxury for the rich. We're talking about thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, if we take, for example, ★ Sport Gloves | Vice or ★ Sport Gloves | Pandora's Box. For that kind of money, you could buy a good off-road vehicle from 2022.
However, even for the cheapest option, you'll have to pay at least half a thousand dollars, which is equivalent to the monthly salary of an average resident of the post-Soviet space whose country is not in the EU.
In any case, in CS:GO, it's also desirable to match gloves with a suitable colored knife, which is another expense. Moreover, the cost of both can rise after the release of Counter-Strike 2. Even now, the price of many of them continues to grow from month to month. The M4A1-S | Blue Phosphor doubled in price after the release of the CS2 closed beta. Therefore, it's most reasonable for glove enthusiasts to either hunt for good deals now or wait for the hype to die down after the summer release of the new CS installment.
