Professional Glove Care Kit Now Available
BallGloveWarehouse.com is now making a professional-grade Glove Care Kit and tutorial available to its customers. Each kit is customized to the type of glove purchased by the customer and was designed to enhance the performance and longevity of the gloves.
The Glove Care Kit includes a four step tutorial pamphlet, an ash mallet for forming a pocket and softening leather, two large shaping bands and a plastic ball to mold the pocket, a nylon drawstring carrying bag, and the specific oil recommended by the manufacturer for the type of glove purchased. The kit was designed by Project Manager Tommy Hottovy, who is also a professional baseball player and has seen first hand the correct and incorrect ways a baseball glove can be broken in.
According to BallGloveWarehouse.com, the best way to keep a glove strong and supple is to use glove oil. Because each glove manufacturer uses different leather and treatments on their gloves, it’s important to use the oil recommended by the manufacturer - which is also included in the Glove Care Kits.
Breaking in and caring for a glove correctly is the best way to ensure the longevity and quality of the glove. Making sure it forms a good pocket will also help prevent dropped balls.
