Nothing would happen… The circuit is between the pads on the gloves, you’d have to complete the circuit going through the brown shirt to do anything unexpected… Which is entirely unfeasible in any real world situation
If your clothing is conductive, it’s just going to mostly flow through your clothing. Depending on thermal properties and how much current these gloves put out, it might heat up the clothing enough to cause burns

I was thinking more about what would happen with the gloves themselves. Not sure if it’d break them or convert them into high-intensity hand warmers (or your suggestion or nothing, for that matter). Guess I could pick up one of those crappy $10 stun gun flashlight things and see how those respond to a conductor between the prongs but probably won’t.
