Nitpicking "two-sided gloves"

Posted under Tags

Per our definition of two-sided fabric and two-sided gloves, most gloves tagged don't apply as they don't have their inner lining a different color, but the palm instead. It doesn't even imply two-sided fabric.
This mildly annoyed me, so I tried to find a better term to define them and "palm coating" stood out to me. This is usually used in work gloves to add puncture or abrasion resistance.

This left me with two possible suggestions: palm-coated gloves or palm coating by itself.
Among these two, I believe palm coating would be a better tag as it could encompass things like bodysuits.

Now, I would request a full rename of the tag as I didn't see any examples of true two-sided gloves while searching, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was one such example. As such, I'll simply wait for approval or a better name before gardening.

I feel that while you're right about palm-coated gloves or palm coating being more accurate, a lot of users are already used to the two-sided * tags to indicate visual or material contrast, even if it’s not literally two-sided fabric. If we rename the tag, I’m a bit worried people just won’t think to look for the new one unless we deprecate two-sided gloves. Maybe I'm just overthinking it, though.
