All we know for sure is that Vincent wears a glove on his left hand. It's a real leap of logic and imagination to connect that with his Limit Breaks, which we know to be the result of Hojo's experiments.

Now, on a lighter note...[q=Darkness]We're not all going to question why Barret doesn't wear a shirt[/q]Pure, degrading sexual exploitation is the only possible explanation.[q]why Nanaki has a headress[/q]They had to give him some kind of clothing, and he'd looked silly in pants.[q]why Yuffie has a shield on her left arm[/q]Convenient storage space for stolen materia, and it also provides additional protection, which she'd need since she's got such a small frame.[q]why Cait Sith has a yellow hat[/q]He's holding out. He's actually got a Hypno Crown (to go with the Manipulate materia he's got when you first meet him), but he's selfish and deceitful so he keeps it to himself.[q]It's just a demonstration of Square's quirkiness and attention to detail.
[/q]I couldn't agree more. Tetsuya Nomrua's designs are good like that. Lots of little features and details. Squall's millions of belts are another good example; they don't "prove" that he's into bondage, they're just a quirk of his costume that probably have some kind of use (carrying ammo, for instance) that never get fully explained by the plot.
