Gloves are not a part of every outfit. Boots/shoes are unless someone goes out of the way to say they are barefoot.I would think there is more to support it in the sense that gloves are a perfectly common and mundane item that would be available to just about any PC.
What if we flipped the situation a bit... what if instead of contact poison, the trap was caltrops? Would anyone ask "do you have boots written on your character sheet?"
