If you're afraid of losing your grip from the sweaty tsuka it's acceptable to use customized gloves during summer practice. Just cut open the finger parts and palms of some old cotton gloves or such.
There is also an esthetic reason for wearing gloves (no, the gloves don't look nice). It's considered well not definitely as a bad manner but not very acceptable either to constantly wipe your hands on your practice wear.
If you're not into wearing gloves during practice just bring your towel with you; although it is also kind of mendokusai to stop training every 10 minutes just to wipe the sweat.
So what to do?
Shut up and practice o(^-^)o
Like Takada Sensei always says no matter the circumstances let's practice like there's no tomorrow!

Thanks for these kinds of clarification - questions like these often leads to rumors about what is acceptable and what is not in different dojos.
A puclic explanation on when it's OK to wear tabi would also be great!
Thanks,
