Idk, I knew a street musician who used to play with a golf glove on his fretting hand. He played primarily at the beach, and he said it helped with the damp and at times chill weather. FWIW, he also recorded a number of albums in the '80s, one of which got a five star review by Rolling Stone, so he was a pretty serious musician.
As a guy that has real problems with cracking skin on his fingers I have to say that this idea is a real . . . nope, can't. It's dumb. Yet another sign that society as a whole is going full pussy. When the rockers wanna wear condoms to avoid touching their own guitars, shit's getting really pathetic.

If one has a legitimate medical condition that warrants some kind of barrier between one's skin and the instrument obviously that trumps pussification assertions.
