Your glove is unique, so it gets special treatment as well. We use each specially designed mallet to break down each glove at its specific flex points, form a pocket, or help break in the palm with a weighted head. This particular working of the leather increases the effectiveness of the manual labor process. Since every glove \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eis built\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e differently, this is where our knowledge and experience come into play. Forming the leather on these proper crease points while holding the integrity of the rest of the glove is the key to success. This process \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eis completed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e in 4-5 sessions over 2-3 days. Working the gloves by hand, along with our conditioning services, is the key to proper break-in.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eStep 2: Manual Labor:  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThere is no easy way around breaking a good leather glove; it is all manual labor. We do not use heat, steam, or any shortcuts in our break-in process, so they return feeling 100% natural break-in and not a rushed steam job by your local sporting goods store. We use weights overnight, mallets on the pocket, muscle on the flex points, and time to perfectly break in the gloves immediately for game use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eStep 3: Hydrate the leather:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e We apply a small amount of specially formulated glove conditioner to the leather and laces inside and out. This conditioner \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eis absorbed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e by the glove's pores, which helps keep the glove in top condition all year. This extra conditioning step helps keep dirt and debris out of the newly stretched-out leather pores. Hydrating the leather will also help the glove last longer as it will resist absorbing water, which can lead to early dry rot. We recommend hydrating the leather at the end of each season to stay ready and prevent dry rot.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eStep 4: Proper form:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eTo get the perfectly formed pocket\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e, each glove has 100 weighted baseballs\/softballs caught in the web, helping form the pocket and laces. Once the glove has a nice pocket formed, we must ensure it maintains its proper form en route back to you. After the glove conditioning process \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eis completed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e, we put a ball in each glove and wrap it up with rubber bands prior to shipping it back to you. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eThis\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e ensures the glove holds its form on its way back to you. It is imperative that the glove maintains its form during use and does not collapse when fielding a ground ball. Gloves will not come back floppy rags as this is not a helpful tool on the ball diamond. We take these extra steps to provide the full effects of our break-in process.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eStep 5: Glove Maintenance:  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eOnce you receive your glove back, there is nothing you need to do immediately to use it. Remove the rubber bands holding the ball in place and get the leather accustomed to your hand so it gets the proper fit. Once you have it situated, play catch with it right away so you can feel the softness and squeezability of the glove while getting used to it. After the initial catch, you can put a ball back to keep its shape and put it in your bag for future play.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003ePlace your order today – and never worry about playing with an unconditioned glove again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eCheckout?  What's Next?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eAfter you complete checkout, you will get two emails.  One email will be the receipt from the form of payment you use.  The other email will be a welcome email with some basic info, links to before and after photos, and\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eour Facebook and Twitter links if you want to follow our work.    The second email will also contain our shipping address to send us your glove, which is\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eProRollers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e5048 State Route 601\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003eNorwalk, OH 44857\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003ePlease include your order number inside or outside the box.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rawlings","offers":[{"title":"Right Hand Throw \/ Yes: Fully Game Ready","offer_id":48768008978586,"sku":null,"price":379.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0642\/2475\/5866\/files\/RLACM33FP-24WP_alt1.webp?v=1784555887","url":"https:\/\/prorollers.net\/products\/rawlings-liberty-advanced-white-pink-33-fastpitch-catchers-mitt-rlacm33fp-24wp-custom-broken-in-game-ready","provider":"ProRollers Rolled Bats \u0026 Game Ready Gloves","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
