    So I just followed these directions to break in a new softball catcher's mitt and outfield glove from your previous video. OMG! It worked like a charm. I used the hot water, mallet, 5 lb dumbbell, shorty bat, and put them in the car. It was 90 degrees today. My daughter had the biggest smile on her face when we played catch today. Amazing! Thank you.

    Hey Coach! Thanks for making these videos! I've used these videos now to break in my son's glove, and now I've used this one break in a catcher mitt for one of the catchers on my team who though he had it broken in from one of the big chain sports stores, but I took the new mitt and had it floppy and poppy in less that 8 hours by using this technique!

    Just like he said, “Everyone has their own routine”. (For breaking in a glove)
    I personally box my catchers mitt and don’t like it to be collapsed.
    But this is his way that works for him.

    I made an account just to comment that I followed this video step by step when I bought my daughter a catchers mitt. Just like the other comments on here it worked better than I could of imagined! it took about 45 minutes to an hour from getting it wet to placing in the dash of my truck, this time included making a softball mallet as well. My daughter LOVES the POP so much, she is so excited to take it to practice and see what her pitchers think. Thanks for the awesome video!

      I agree. We just picked up our new gloves this morning both an outfielder and catchers and have started this process and so far so good

  • @justmeeagainn
    @justmeeagainn ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just wanted to say that I tried this process and it worked perfectly. The glove came out almost completely broken in and ready to go. I was admittedly a little worried about getting it wet in the shower, but when I wiped off some of the excess water and followed the directions given in the video, everything worked out. The only difference is that instead of putting the glove in the car, I used self-sticking wrap tape to wrap up the glove and let it dry on the window sill inside the house for 24 hours. When I unwrapped it, it was really nice and broken in with a good pocket.

    For all of you saying he’s breaking the glove in wrong listen
    There’s no one right way to break in a glove, there’s a million different ways to do it and everyone’s is slightly different
    He also isn’t doing anything actually wrong with the glove, hot water treatment is super common and doesn’t damage the glove like people say it does, and flattening the glove doesn’t stretch the glove out and mess it up it simply loosens the leather

    Important to add is, while receiving pitches, you close the glove with thumb and pinky. Furthermore put pinky and ring finger in the glove's pinky. I see a lot of kids squeeze the glove with full hand and ruining the pocket that way.

    im not an advocate of the hot water method, and if you arent either you can do the same thing but with glove oil. the only issue with glove oil is you have to pay for it, and the good and trusted oils cost more. the hot water method also softens it better and wont darken lighter colours. if you want to do it naturally it can take a lot longer time, usually a month (i take a full year on catchers mitts) but still works

    The only thing that should feel broken in truly is the pocket where your thumb inserts and the deep pocket where you receive the ball the padding on both sides of the deep pocket should remain thick and stiff or an easier attempt at blocking the ball and keeping everything in front of you. Great video

      Get one the sandfilled balls and actually have glove or mitt on hand and watch tv while throwing into pocket over and over...then leave ball in it over night with it tied up! You can break in a mitt and pocket be good and still not pancake when throw it on ground!

  • @remywyaa2326
    @remywyaa2326 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    i just break it in slowly so it forms to my hand and never flatten the glove bc then itll turn into a pancake over time. Break in a catchers mitt with the box shape. It makes the pocket super big and makes it easier to catch the baseball. With the box shape you always know where the ball will bc it just falls into the same spot of the pocket each time

    The only thing I do to break my gloves is that I use warm water unless the glove is white because it ruins the color then I use a glove mallet and then I play catch I usually takes me about 2 weeks to break in a new glove to my preference.
