Latex clothing is typically made of natural rubber and contains proteins. These can be the reason for an allergic reaction. Often it is not the latex itself that triggers an allergic reaction, but the powder with which it was treated. A significant proportion of allergic reactions are known from areas in which latex gloves are worn as protection or hygiene reasons.
