How To Break In a Glove Fast *Hot Water Treatment*

Today Nd0 brings you a commonly requested video by our fans! This video will show you how to break in a glove faster, how to form a glove, and how to hot water a glove. Doing the hot water treatment correctly will accelerate the break in process tremendously if you do it right! The hot water treatment allows you to form a glove to your liking and really shape to your hand. This process can bring old gloves back to life, too!
The hot water treatment does NOT ruin a glove if done correctly. If done incorrectly it can cause the leather to become heavier and ruin a glove. Just follow the video and everything should workout just fine! Nd0 is not responsible for any decisions you make during this process.
Hope you enjoyed the video and if you're reading this far into the description comment Nd0 out! Anyways Nd0 out peace!

I could not find the exact thermometer I used in this video but this one should work just fine.

Definitely using this method on my new glove, speeds the process up a lot as opposed to just playing with it over time 👍

Video was pretty dope. Never done the water treatment break in. Always just played with my glove and broke it down. may just try this on my next glove and see how it works.

Very good work. Definitely using your method bro. Appreciate that u showed us the water temp. Lots of guys don't get that detailed and I believe there's a certain temp that's perfect for softening and making the leather pliable without damaging it and where u had it proved that to me.

When you’re getting the palm liner wet you should pour it the other way so you don’t get water in your finger stalls

[@Nd0Gloves]

I like to get it in the fingers so it forms to them

[@stephendre2902]

As long as you let the water drain out and don’t let it sit in a hot muggy climate after it will be just fine.

So after it’s shaped and worked with hot water what’s the best way to store it to dry? I’m trying to break in my sons glove. Put a ball in the pocket and rubber and it?

This helped me break in my new glove thank you so much

[@Nd0Gloves]

You’re welcome!

[@TheVTRainMan]

I used to use hotwater to break in new boots when I was in the Army. In fact, when I was in basic training I volunteered for KP (kitchen patrol/police) duty and got myself to the dishwasher. Each time a load came out, I let that hot water from the dishes drench my boots. By the end of the shift, my boots were ready for the 12 mile march. i never got blisters. I don't know why I didn't think this would work for a baseball glove. ??

[@Nd0Gloves]

that’s awesome! thank you for your service!

[@andrewhanbridge8079]

Did u do this before u did anything else to try to break it in?

Yo bro do u know why my glove is still so wet and cold like it was wet but not cold but now its cold and wet after like 4 hrs

[@bobbystillz222]

For people who think water ruins the glove, should realize that baseball is played in the rain all the time. And the gloves get drenched. And by the time you get home and wake up the next morning, it’s dry and the glove is fine. Just make sure it doesn’t get too soaked to work gets waterlogged. That could damage it. But it takes a lot of water to get into that leather. So don’t be worried.

Just make sure you don’t wet the sink

[@thetacticaltauntaun4788]

My glove is blonde with blue laces so I don’t want to risk doing the hot water treatment, but I was wondering if it would work to form the inside by dipping my hand in hot water and wearing the glove

[@Nd0Gloves]

I don’t think you should do that. The glove should form to your hand over time with use.

[@dillr7322]

Still have this glove?

Hmmm.. not 100% but think one of the same. Call a Dicks sporting goods. Not sure if they are nationwide but many around Chicago. They have been very knowledgeable for us.

does the hot water treatment hurt the glove

[@gunsnblazers6552]

Do u get the palm stain just by playing with it ? How !?

[@eastwood2178]

Condition it

[@baseballbynatedog800]

Will the glove become lighter because it seems waterlogged when I tried it but it was a good technique to form to your hand.

[@ethanaditya642]

Baseball by Natedog I have had the same problem before, it depends on the quality of the leather, cause if you have an expensive glove the water won’t soak in, but if the glove is cheaper the glove is typically a combination between leather and other fabrics and they will soak up the water but after a couple weeks of playing the water will go away

[@baseballbynatedog800]

Thanks:)

[@macarioevans7637]

How many times are you supposed to do the water treatment before it’s 100% good?

[@Nd0Gloves]

Once should be fine to get the shape how you like and speed up the break in process

[@macarioevans7637]

Thanks, great video
