Why do I often get electric currents from escalators and how to avoid this?

When I wear at least one cotton clothe and using escalators in different buildings containing escalators,
I often get electrical currents in first touch of the relevant escalator,
but right afterwards I can keep using the escalator until reaching the upper floor -- usually without feeling any further electrical currents.

This problem happened to me especially in winters when I was more more heavily clothed, but it definitely happened to me in all other seasons of the year;
It happened to me both in Western Asia and Europe where a 4 season year is available and in South East Asia where a 3 season year is available (no Fall season as generally all tropic trees are evergreen).

Why do I often get electric currents from escalators and how to avoid this?

If I need to stop wearing cotton based clothes, than I might just have to keep suffering from this but if I don't, maybe there is some accessory I can wear to stop getting these currents?
