Softening up gloves

Recommended Posts

I've had that problem with my Graf 700s, the only thing that seems to help is a little water right before I go skate. Nothing has softened them up very much and I've tried everything.

Use a rag/face cloth and soak it in hot water under the fawcet. Then put it on your hand and put your hand in your glove. Next take your hand out and run some more water on the rag and place it on the plam of the glove, while putting your hand inside the glove and squeezing. When you complete this either let your gloves dry a bit or do what I do and put your gloves in your dryer under damp-dry.

Shaving Cream works. It doesn't last too long though, so you'll have to reapply it every 3-4 weeks.

Never ever use water. It will do more damage than most products. It causes leather to dry out.

Depending on the quality, you can use baseball glove products.

Most of todays gloves use Nash so there is not much you can use.

Mine are shot anyway, just trying to coax a bit more life out of them.

u can usually find baseball glove conditioner made by easton or any other stuff. Just rub that stuff in, wait over night and do it again until your palms are soft

gloveoluem can get very oily, there is something called Pro-Prep that is more of a jelly base, that you wipe on the leather and then let it sit for about 20 minutes and then wipe it out. I laced baseball gloves for years and it always worked best. Also make sure that if you use shaving cream, it needs to have lanolin in it.
