Crusty Palms

['fitz 0]

I just got new gloves and I would really like to take care of them this time. I've read in other topics that the Tacki-mac grips can reduce the wear on your palm, but is there any way to stop them from getting hard and crusty?

ive heard when they start to get crusty you can put some barbosol shaving cream on them

i don't think you can stop this from happening. i play so often my gloves always do this so i tend not to dry them out.

It has to be shaving cream with Lanolin in order to help, but yes this method is well known for helping with crust issues.

It also greatly depends on what palm material you have in your gloves.

I prefer letting them get crusty so I have justification for buying new gloves. :)

lol exactly, but the micronash palm generally does not get crusty, i guess you could look into that

Just wait until you get a good three or four months worth of use and they'll get crustified! Haha. My Franchises now live in crust city, but having them in front of a fan until they're completely dry surely plays a factor.
