Because great leather deserves great care.

Post break-in, before re-tying all the laces.

I keep the wrist strap loose during the break-in process so I don't stretch the glove out. The goal is to get the glove playing-ready while preventing it from conforming to my hand too early.

The final step of any break-in is letting the glove naturally form to its owner's hand - through games of catch and playing.

Catchers gloves are truly a labor of love! Glad this one is up and ready for a game!

One of my favorite full restorations I have done. Re-dying the leather really brings the mitt back to life. Restored leather performs great and feels even better. Respect the hide, and it will last a lifetime.

Quick fix this week on a broken lace.   Have to keep those laces snug and conditioned to prevent breaking!

I have tried a lot of conditioners, cleaners, brushes but these guys have some of the best stuff on the market. I found them because I needed a palm adhesive but ended up testing out all their glove products. Highly recommend their stuff. Their cleaner works awesome and doesn’t dry out the gloves in the process.
