I think the green gloves are a symbol of jealousy and envy. I think he has been out of contact with his good friends and has grown jealous of them because he is not included. The drinking theme could be a way of getting closer to them. I think the jealousy in the last few lines is pretty obvious as he says he wants to win them over so they'll be his. I also think of gloves as a way of fighting to get back in, just like boxing gloves. he is fighting to win them over through jealousy and alcohol.
