Great video; awesome glove. I think that adjusting the laces on the fingers was a smart move (I've done that on most of my gloves). I think that when you spread the fingers out more, you may go from a thumb-to-pinky closure to a thumb-to-ring finger closure. This doesn't mean that the pocket is now shallower, it means that the fingers are taking up more space. So long as the pocket is secure, this should not be a problem, and may actually help as now the glove will have a larger catching area. Keep us posted on the progress.
had a kinda wide opening at the top of my glove and i tried curling fingers in and everything but never thought of loosening the finger lace but i will definitely have to do that. great video
Never settle! I realize its a custom and the customer put it there but its on the tag of Mizuno Pro gloves and i seen it being used by another brand i think it was 44 might of been one of his , pretty sure theyve posted a couple of his pieces..
Such a good video man. I love what you did with the glove. I think that tip about the index finger is such a crucial part of a break-in to really get that solid close. I think it would be really cool to get your perspective on how a glove performs with fly balls, shoestring catches, diving plays, and even ground ball transitions into throws. I know some of that can be hard to replicate but I think it would be awesome to hear your thoughts on it.
I grew up playing ball in the 90's. We shaped gloves in the opposite direction. We'd roll them in and push the fingers towards the bottom of the palm. Mostly for infield gloves. Outfield just a nice pocket and well broken in. Not sure I see a big advantage to flaring the thumb and pinky out like that. And always just used glove oil. Water dries out leather.
I see what you mean. Flaring the thumb and pinky out create a funnel shape and make in-between balls go into the pocket. As for the oil-vs-conditioner debate, I find oil to make the glove too heavy and ultimately doesn’t hydrate the leather. The one I use, I like, because it really does make the leather soft and give a great patina. At the end of the day it’s all personal choice. No absolute wrong way to use a piece of equipment if it works for you!
Fantastic video bro 👏👏
The king approves!! ⚾️👑

Is there a way to make the inside of the glove feel better? I just got a custom 44 pro stiff glove and it hurts the back of my hand and fingers.
You just got it so you gotta keep using it until it loosens up, breaks in, and forms to your hand
@@914ballgloves8 thanks so much for the response and thank you for the advice
Yo what is the best online store to buy gloves ?
Ballgloves.com !
Can you put hot water on a burgundy glove?
I don’t see why not. Just don’t use too much! A little bit goes a long way
What is this web called??
Trap eze . Some call it ochiro style
I put 2 in the pink and 2 in the ring 💀
I’ve seen a few catchers do that
