Glove Preparation

Some gloves come pre-oil and ready for use. Unfortunately The Heart of the Hide from Rawlings do not. In my opinion they are the best gloves available. They also take the longest time work in - so you better start in the cold months.

Step 1 - Lubricant - Some like shaving cream - I have had the best luck with vaseline. But this requires a bit of work.Cover the inside of the glove with Vaseline. After working the vaseline into the leather - take a ball (for larger gloves use 2 balls) and place right where you want the pocket to be formed - wrap the glove tightly in the position your hand feels most comfortable.

Step 2 - After a week - unwrap the glove and repeat the process with Dubin this time. Put the glove on and open and close it about a hundred times - then apply the dubin and re-wrap.

After about a month the glove should be formed exactly how you wish. Infielders mits should be open at the end of the pinky and thumb. For some reason I see a lot of kids closing this part of the glove. This does two things - prevents you from picking up tough ground balls and getting the ball out of your glove. Treat your glove like a baby - it is yours and if you take care of it, it will take care your defence.
