Disco Elysium: Walkthrough for Finding the Armoured Gloves

This page of the Disco Elysium guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough for the side quest to find the armoured gloves.

In the Find the Armoured Gloves quest in Disco Elysium, your objective is to locate the gloves that are part of the Fairweather T-500 ceramic armor.

You can receive this quest from Cindy the SKULL after speaking to her about the ceramic armor set and committing to finding all armor pieces (Find all armor pieces objective) once you have said the phrase “Call me manana”.

The gloves can only be obtained on the third day of the investigation after closing the floodgate (Close the water lock on Wednesday objective). Head to the coast and enter the building shown in the image above.

Inside, you will meet a little girl named Lily. Treat her kindly and inquire about the armoured gloves. You will discover that she has hidden them in a sandcastle she built behind the house.

Go to the designated location and search the ruined sandcastle to obtain the Fairweather T-500 Gauntlets.
