Nokona NLT is one of the best glove conditioners out there. Surprised you haven't tried that.

[@AmniFilms]

my synthetic glove has no problem at all but it went rock hard being stock for months what can i do?

[@willgowdy6133]

Great, informative videos. Just really getting into restoration world and appreciate your insight. Have any experience, thoughts on using these ph balanced applications over saddle soap? Finding many forums with serious glove veterans that seem rather split on the issue. Sometimes I think the old guard just don’t trust the new stuff (Lexol orange, etc) and the younger shy away from the slightly more involved process and careful approach of saddle soap. The latter (maybe?) involving a much wider margin of error.

[@georgiagloves7227]

damn i loved watching this one!! i watch but usually i’m watching like in class during first period so i can’t ever comment. but sweet video mitch! btw my girlfriend liked your jeep hahah!

[@JJMECH46]

I went to a garage sale and picked up 4 baseball gloves that being sitting in the garage for years. its dried up dirty dusty got two left hands and two right hands. what was the first thing to do? what chemical or cleaner and polish to use?

[@mitchlums5811]

Sorry for the massively late reply!! I’ve used a leather cleaner with a ph neutral balance or even a brand like “2bwax”

[@gmack2547]

Love the channel and tips. Huge question. Where do you get your lace from, and do you tend to load up on local team colors and the basics, or do you grab a little of everything? Thx.

[@mercedes32446]

I was told that vaseline based products were bad for your glove?

[@mailendoesntpull]

I left my glove outside and it stiffened how do I fix it

[@connormaloney9974]

You said ph neuatural balanced does ph balanced work

[@mitchlums5811]

Yea!! That's the same, sorry for the super late reply!! I'm back from a lot of baseball now

[@ajdogoldogol2742]

[@en6853]

[@mitchlums5811]

[@en6853]

Lums Lacing not a bad thing dude haha glad you didn’t get insulted

[@kevinh5853]

I’m about to restore a glove for my son. Do you have any suggestion on how to remove a name from a marker on the leather?

[@mitchlums5811]

I'm actually going to test it out today! I've had no luck so far, but I've heard sunscreen works

[@kennethcooper1846]

Hey I just found a glove today in a unique way lol Upon research I think it's a pretty expensive glove Not sure on how to clean it though, is there a way I can send you some pics to get your insight?

[@curtricebaseball4851]

Will lexol work good? They have a step 1 and step 2.

[@mitchlums5811]

Yes! Lexol is what a lot of people use! I have new cleaners and conditioners now too, I use the lexol/ armour all for the tougher pocket stains

[@curtricebaseball4851]

@@mitchlums5811 thank you my friend

[@mitchlums5811]

Any time!

[@arzchamp16]

I screwed up and haven't cleaned my A2000 in so long and now it feels super dry will this help restore it?

[@fisherbobbitt524]

my A2000 is too broke in / limp what should i do to strenthen

[@hiiro24]

Get it relace and you will probably need to adds some palm adhesive in the palm, and maybe have the thumb and pinky HDPE plastic inserts replace as well.

[@TommytheHVC]

Hey I'm in the UK, looking to restore my own glove. Do you have any tips and tricks for a first timer and also anyway to fix up the inside of the actual glove, so where your palm goes?

[@mitchlums5811]

Hey Tommy! Two quick tips I have are... - Start with the pinky and thumb - Don't tie your laces together until the entire glove is finished! or else the laces will get bent and crinkled I don't have anyway to fix up the inside other than take it to a leather repair shop

[@TommytheHVC]

Lums Lacing awesome thanks man, sucks over here not having people in the know to help out or repair gloves

[@Pickcherdis]

Do you change the laces like you would for new sneakers?

[@Pickcherdis]

Well newly cleaned sneakers

[@swisschaletsauce]

What is that beat?!

[@mitchlums5811]

swisschaletsauce it's by Mulle, and it's called same old sh*t

[@swisschaletsauce]

thanks man!

[@harveygonzales23]

i got a question?? what would you use to clean a white glove? seems to be all the craze in fastpitch??

[@mitchlums5811]

harveygonzales23 find a cleaner withs ph neutral balance, that is made for light coloured leather! I think that's the best way to do, just to ensure your leather stays clean, also make sure your cleaning tools (brush or rag) are super clean

[@hiiro24]

Water with palm Olive dish soap since it is ph neutral balanced.

[@omilu808]

Pecards still good to use on gloves?

[@andrewbaxter7397]

Demo on mod trap webs?

[@mitchlums5811]

demo cleaning?

[@andrewbaxter7397]

How to relace

[@t_rain2578]

Are the laces all the same width thru out the glove?

[@mitchlums5811]

web and fingers are 1/4 inch typically! unless its a youth glove thats not going to get a lot of pounding, and wilson uses 3/16 everywhere

[@albertolgrande]

How do you relace a dual hinge web ob a A2000 L?

[@colebarnes3938]

Where do you buy your laces at?

[@mitchlums5811]

I get them from buyfastpitchgloves.com

[@russelledwards79]

Bruh I’m tryna clean my glove not get to know ur dog 🤦‍♂️

[@RedZ1900]

the interior lining of my baseball glove is starting to crack due to sweat. Is this normal? Would conditioner help?

[@mitchlums5811]

I have the same issue! Conditioning it would be good! Just don't do it very often. My glove is way beyond saving haha

[@hiiro24]

Yes conditioner will slow down the process of the hand stall cracking, I would recommend recommend wearing a batting glove underneath your fielding glove.

[@reecerowland4275]

How much do you charge?

[@mitchlums5811]

Wow!! I'm really sorry for the late reply, just got back from a busy last part of our season! It's $45 for the full thing

[@delcy28]
