I was wondering why I let in 10+ goals every time that I tried to play goalie...my glove wasn’t broken in.

[@trav4oilers]

I love you, can I have an autograph??????

Nasher you watch trav

I swear nasher is better goalie then player (on ice)

[@magictooth2]

The shower trick seems like a very gentle way of baking your glove. Great vid, will remember that for sure

[@CaptainCanada92]

If only you were closer to Edmonton I could steam that glove for you in a second. Lol. I own a Drycleaners we have steam on demand.

[@derekwood3997]

I just got a g4 glove and it came broken in completely. All I needed to do was adjust the strapping.

[@trav4oilers]

The Vlog continues Friday morning. This was a big problem I personally had growing up trying to break in gloves. Hope this helps you - Trav

I needed this I have a ccm glove that is no where close to broken in even tho I have had it for about a year love the vids thank for the information

[@goalieninja610]

That's some good advice. I always break in a new glove by throwing it in a forearm training routine.

[@mitchellman32]

My 1S glove has the issue with the centre foams intersecting and not closing properlly, I’ll try the glove sauna! Thanks trav!

[@stayready5403]

I personally used a method of taking a dish towel, wetting it down a lot and put in in the microwave for a minute. Carefully grab (it’s really hot) the towel out and put it in the crease and work it open and closed all the way. Repeat until glove is loose. Worked great on CCM axis2.5 where nothing else did. Hope it helps

[@trav4oilers]

Whatever works for you man :)

Thanks for the info I'll use your method.

[@JohnDoe-qf1ji]

when i was a kid i used a yellow glove and pushed the t bar against my left pad so much i could easily open and close it with my weak 12 year old hand

[@stefanfilewicz]

i do that now because I am 12 years old lol

[@randomlunatic2608]

Trav are you sure the steam won't ruin the glove? Im ordering a custom optic glove and I tried the sink water method last time I had a glove and it ruined the glove and it was soaking wet for a year straight! will this do the same? and also will it be hot enough to break it in good

[@senor_sid]

Couldn't you buy some kind of steamer? That's an insane amount of wasted water

[@bobbutts4402]

Well you could always be in the shower, during the process

Hi there. Any tips for a glove that gets dry and crusting on the inside making it hard to close? My son has a warrior glove, approx 1 year old. After games it’s taken out of the bag, hung in mud room and left to dry. We also use “gear halo” inside to minimize stinking. For the past month he has complained that his glove is all stiff and crusty, making it hard to close. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks from a goalie mom

[@trav4oilers]

Spray a little bit of water in their to soften it up. I find that helps

[@slowaf420r4]

I just switched to goalie im 28..i guess its never too late cuz im told that i should have played goalie this whole time but ive played in a bunch of different teams even rep teams i guess being a goalie is a natural thing either u got it or u dont

[@calebpletcher8596]

Is this indoor lacrosses

[@calebpletcher8596]

What game is this

[@ryana3679]

New glove. Use it. Start with practice and work from there. Wear it around the house. A lot of people like to bake it. Get it Uber warm and then put it on but in my experience it just breaks down the material faster. Fine if you’re using the gear for 6 months to a years but sucks for anything longer. If you’re looking to put some seasons in on the gear work it from new and keep it as natural as possible. Drying your gear after every use also will help with wear and breaking. Yes it actually helps the natural materials to work in wet and work it in and dry.

[@mikemedina6478]

Rubbing alcohol will loosen up the leather without breaking it down. As long as you don't over do it. Mix 1/4 rubbing and 3/4 water.

[@NickTheGoalie_1]

The shower method is the way to go!

[@filop4367]

Would it work to put glove into the washing machine? Or is that too hot and/or too wet??

[@trav4oilers]

terrible idea. you need to open and close it

Would this work if you put the glove in a dryer?

If that’s a $700-750 trapper you need some better connections. Pro glove would be $400-450 maybe a custom in the 6’s.

That you say is not true

[@christianpeters345]

Hey guys, If you do want to bake your glove at home: -Set oven to 175F -Open the glove up -Place glove on middle rack, palm face down -Bake for 8-10 minutes Everything should be moldable, you can even fix a bad break by baking the glove.

[@ongek428]

I have the same shower and tub as you wtf

[@liorana3366]

Well, I have a process that is really quite precise A sort of secret method known to very few So, if you're in the market for professional advice Well today could be a lucky day for you shaving cream You rub that in for about five minutes, tie it all up with rubber bands, put it under your mattress, and sleep on it. And you do that for at least a week, every day, consistent.​ And though this method isn't easy Every second that you spend is gonna pay off It'll pay off in the end
