What the article is trying to say is that the wrist irons are the only clothing item for hand slots in oblivion. Oddly enough there are no unarmored gloꦺves. The reason this is important is because armor lowers your spell effectiveness. Which means your level 25 calm spell won't work on anything above level 25. If you aren't using level effecting spells then chuck the wrist irons.

Just a another uninformed article that needs clicks to shove ads to the front of your screen. Hoping that you mispress the x to clo🅺se them.
