Maybe others do this as well but he's the one I noticed doing it during the game today.

What's the purpose??

running gloves vs hitting gloves. running generic, hitting specific.

They are camouflage so the infielders don't see him sliding into the bases

Base running gloves are more aerodynamic.

Base running gloves might have more support at wrist when sliding into base.

In reality, they just try to keep Ibarra in the game as a contributor

To show off, baseball players can't really celebrate or anything so they find weird little Schtick things to do to look cool.

He needed thicker gloves at 1st because it's colder at first than home plate due to climate change

Not sure why the change of gloves but I know had he slid with his cleats first, the shortstop wouldn't try to block the bag again.

Primo Dana's.

These guys can't put their gloves in their own pockets like the rest of the world? Ibara looks like he needs a damn backpack out their for all their crap.
