What i usually do is soften it up with some hot water, then hit it for a bit, to tenderize it. Then you just keep it simple, with some salt and pepper. You then take a normal oven tray, lay down a bed of vegetables, put the glove on top, then fill it up with stock until it just touches the glove. Pop it in a preheated oven at 350 degrees, leave it until golden brown and crispy. Serves 4. Sorry... i could resist making the joke.

The best way to break in a glove without running the risk of compromising the leather is to just use the glove as much as possible (playing catch, playing in games, etc...). As well, you can supplement that use by using Aso's mallet methods that he demonstrates in this video.

He is showing the best way to break in a glove more quickly than traditional methods. Keep in mind that he is breaking gloves for professionals that are getting gloves for free and don't need to worry about longevity. These are great gloves, that if they get broken in with oil and taken care of, they will last decades. It all depends on your priority. Regardless of method, play lots of catch, preferable hard throwing or pitching, and the glove with work itself out over time. The best results come with patience.

First let's clear some stuff up... This guy breaks in gloves for professional players.. These professional players go through 2-3 gloves a season... So they need gloves that break in fast. For us common people we do not get gloves for free so we prefer them to last as long as possible. This method breaks in gloves as fast as possible but will in fact shorten the life of the glove. For the longevity of the glove play some catch and use a little oil when necessary. (Don't over oil as this will damage the glove as well.) If you need a quick break in then this is the best way to do it.

I've used this basically method on my A2000 and HOH's way back in the 1970's. I did add a little mink oil to the still damp glove so when the water drys the oil take care of any "drying" issues. Remember, you only do this process once then it's play catch with it until it finally gets to be exactly how you like it. Wonder if anyone knows if Wilson for their A2000's and Rawlings HOH's use the same kind of leather and "stuffing" as they did in the 70's ?

I’ll have to try this out, usually i put a ball in the pocket, wrap it up tight like a burrito and leave it in the car for a few days in the summer time, gets hot as an oven in there and when i pull it out it perfect for me, add a little leather conditioner and there we go

The right way... to break in a glove

I've used a few different methods over the years and I can say that if you have a glove that's being a little stubborn this method works, that being said it's all about glove quality and quality of material, if you buy a cheap glove your glove will be made from very low quality hide or synthetic material. generally the more expensive the glove the better the material.

I just watched a fucking beauty beat the living shit out of a baseball glove for 4 minutes and I've never been more entertained

Heat up more water and just put the glove in the bucket for a few seconds. I also turn the glove inside out which makes it easier to pound the gloves inside as well as stretching the glove at the same time. Glove master?

First thing i thought was.... damn he's putting water on the glove.... then i remembered all the hundreds of baseball games i played in the rain with my glove on... haha

If you don’t have a mallet or anything and don’t want to use water, spend the day slamming your ball from your hand into the pocket of your glove, grab the part where your hand goes in and move the leather at the bottom back and forth, take a hammer and put your ball in your glove and tap the ball with the hammer, then close the glove and pound the leather with the hammer. Then put the ball in your glove pocket under your bed, then when you get home from school. It should be game ready :D

Thanks for the message. If you have apprehension about doing the hot water treatment, we would always advice against it. No matter the color of the glove. The way it looks after the hot water treatment, will always be slightly different than before you started the treatment.

after pounding a black glove my mizuno mallet is stained dark so if I pound a blonde or camel glove its gonna turn dark. is there anyway around that?

QUESTION: this one is for all the Wilson glove collectors... what is the best way to store a glove while it is not in use? i have heard that anything from 12" and under is best to keep it standing on its thumb and pinky opened with no baseball's inside so that it may keep a nice open bowl shaped stance and anything from 12.25 and up, it is best to.. some say keep multiple baseball's inside, some say only one baseball inside, some say a softball inside, some say wrap a belt or rubber band around it. Are these things so ? if so.. what about for catchers and first base mitts ? please help...

should glove oil be applied eventually for extra loosness?

Not for looseness but to keep your glove in prime condition and for it to last longer

I’m glad I found this for my son when he starts playing lol. My grandpa and me used some type of warm oil and stretched it out and smash it then had something heavy on it over night. It turned out awesome. But this way seems better

Thank you for the comment! Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video. Breaking in a glove is a great experience to share with your son or daughter! Let us know if you need any assistance!

I've never heard of a cow ruined by warm rain. I think a leather glove can handle hot water.

Thanks for the comment! We agree that the glove can handle the hot water. However, make sure you follow Aso's example if you use this method. We definitely don't want something to go wrong for you!

Great Video. Aso is a craftsman!

Hey I broke in my glove wrong and what do I do to fix it if I can

Do you also use any type of leather conditioner? The water seems to bead when you pour it onto the mitt. I’ve used this method for 2 of my sons gloves successfully. I just purchased an A800 for him,I’ll be using this method as soon as it comes in. What about Nokona glove conditioner? Yes/No? I appreciate any opinions You wanna leave

We don't recommend using any condition while breaking in the glove. However, we do recommend using conditioner every now and then once the glove has been used. Please let us know if you have any questions!

Do it .. It really works

What if your glove has some soft fur or somethinf soft in it that feels like fur?

I wish he would come to northCarolina

Can this work with a heart of the hide without ruining it

Do all your gloves have asos signature
