The honey will come off with water. Now the propolis is a whole other thing.

Here's a clip from Wells Lamont glove company,
Leather Gloves
In order to maintain shape of the gloves, wash gloves while wearing.
* Remove excess dirt by using a mild abrasive cleanser. * Rinse cleanser and dirt from glove with cold water. * Apply a mink oil based leather conditioner while gloves are wet. * Remove gloves from hands and hang dry. *Do NOT heat dry!
Leather Palm Gloves
* Clean using the same procedure as leather gloves, *but do not attempt to clean cuff. * When cleaning leather palm gloves, *you may experience color bleeding on the fabric *back of the glove glove. Use cold water. Do not heat dry.

I've used saddle soap to clean my bee gloves which seems to work well also. I wash them while wearing them, the saddle soap contains lanolin and glycerine.
