I am pretty sure it worked fine a few months ago when I was moving gearswaps around, but was checking some sets today and saw that the gloves failed to equip.

In inventory they do appear normally as "Spaekona's Gloves +4", but when equipped they just show up as "Spaekona's Gloves", and gearswap only works when referencing it as "Spaekona's Gloves".

Did I miss SE or other folks calling this out somewhere?

Haha, so it is. (That's straight from items.res)

Hm, looks like it was always broken maybe? I guess I didn't do a good enough job testing initially.

+4 was released in June 2025, and the items listed it incorrectly there too.

It's probably not a very pressing issue for them because they don't give a ***about Gearswap and its functionality, and this visual bug doesn't affect non-GS users in any way.

They still work in equipsets.
/equip hands "Spae. Gloves +4" still works in macros.
/itemsearch "Spae. Gloves +4" works.

There's no problem with native gameplay, except if you happen to look at your equip screen, it looks a little funny.
