Still have my pro preferred PROS20JA 32.5 from 2002. Never really finished breaking it in before I stopped playing. Took it out today to clean it up and work on it a little which led me to your video.

Good on ya. I do re lacing and minor repairs. Doing binding and patching takes a lot of work. Many years ago I met a Japanese man that did custom leather work for cars, turned out he used to make custom baseball gloves for a small company back in Japan. He would also do repairs and would dye and taper the edges of patches so they were smooth. Running a special stitch. Really interesting fellow.

Woowww I love the red on this glove

[@minituck04]

Can you explain the benefit of going with a wider lace in the web? Glove came out niiiiiccceee. Great repair

[@DurhamGloveRepair]

Thats the area of the glove that takes the most stress, so I use the thicker lace because it is stronger than the narrower.

[@jrybarra0408]

Nice work! When did great value start making adhesive out of coffee?! 😂 I’ve noticed that when I get to relace a glove, its mostly CM’s. Your videos help out alot!

[@AK-io4ed]

Lmfao I just bought this 😂 on sideline swap

[@jedsox]

Great video. I have a HOH catchers glove that could use a restoration. What would that cost?

[@DurhamGloveRepair]

Please email me at [e-mail] and we can talk there.

[@joelbeckman3304]

What material did you use to patch the rips in the palm??

[@DurhamGloveRepair]

Just some vinyl material i had laying around. Nothing special

[@joeschranz4525]

Would you be willing to replace a glove from Missouri. I don’t where your based but it would be helpful. Also wondering if you do akadema gloves

[@DurhamGloveRepair]

For sure. I also work on any glove. Please send me an email at [e-mail].

[@brianmatherne3352]

Can I buy tactical squeeze

[@MrBurtonPE]

So I've heard that Catchers Mitts are the hardest to re-lace, Do you agree and why? Love the videos!

[@DurhamGloveRepair]

They may he for beginners, but once you understand the patterns they are all very similar. Just subtle differences with different brands and models.

[@bremms1]

CM’s and 1B mitts do take a good bit more work, but are not any harder per se. Did one basket weave OF glove and that was really tedious.

[@MrBurtonPE]

@@bremms1 yeah the basket weave looks like it would take at least 8 laces to do. Forgot about that one 😅

[@CarLOS84-]

excellent video but playback is very fast. not even adjusting the video on youtube in slow speed can perform the restoration steps

[@DurhamGloveRepair]

The video would be way too long if not sped up and I’ve found cutting them up into multiple videos isn’t great unfortunately.

[@gbaker1a775]

Just slow the video speed down in the options to whatever you like…

Snapback hats a girl please
