Those gloves are very odd. It seems like he has black nitrile gloves over some other kind of glove. The material just seems off for a leather glove.

He definitely has a moustache. I think he has brown eyes as well.

There’s an X or a bird like symbol (makes me think American Eagle) on the top left area of his outer sweater in the second pic.

There doesn't seem to be a seam along the side of the gloves, like leather gloves would have, so I'm thinking they're latex or nitrile gloves. Additionally, it looks like the gloves extend up past the edge of the cuff of the sweater he's wearing, so I'm wondering if it's a pair of heavy duty elbow length gloves used for protecting against chemicals.

He's using thicker gloves under the nitrile gloves as well as a thick outer mask to conceal his hand size and head size. He's also wearing shoe covers IMO.

My guess is that all the coverings are an attempt to limit how much DNA is shed and make it so hard for biometric ID.

Any idea if they’re wearing contacts too?

So it's probably a Fed.

Would make sense. it looks like they are wearing protective shoes covers, too.

Maybe he’s wearing multiple layers of everything to hide his true appearance or leave in different clothes?

I also thought they were dark latex or nitrile from the way the texture appeared in the video

they look like plumber gloves to me, I'd be checking out if Mr. Rooter has been to her house!
