If you're hiking, cycling or riding a motorbike in Taiwan, get a pair or two of cotton gloves like these. They're available from any general or hardware store in any town. Taiwanese farmers use these when handling pineapples or pesticides, and because they're so cheap (NT$10/pair) they never wash them, but just replace them when they're filthy or too stiff with banana sap to wear.
