Haha, he's so aggressive, I was like NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! But then i thought, well this guy is famous for breaking in gloves so I trust him.
Tristan Newsome I mean if you think about it, a high end baseball glove is catching a ball moving at least 70 mph so he's just simulating that sort of assault
I always thought the same thing. After sending so much money on a glove the last thing you feel like you wanna do is starting beating on it but honestly, it works really well and it’s totally fine to do.
Tristan Newsome me to
Bro I also he is bending the A2000 i feel sorry for the glove
He literally makes the glove
6:57 "Best way to break in glove is to play catch." His words, not mine. I can do that.
Peace
Could have been a 30 Second video
@@jerryaelvoet72 If you like half the advice...
Sometimes you don’t have the luxury of time and prefer the glove broken in sooner.
So you basically ignored most of his video. Got it.
He is the Wilson Glove Expert that breaks in the Gloves for the MLB Players that use the Wilson Gloves so he knows what he is doing even though it may look strange to you But it works Period Thanks for sharing etc.
For everyone doubting it works, I've done this on past gloves and it works beautifully. I'm breaking in a new A2K and I can almost squeeze it all the way already.
Y'all be judging this guy, he's the one that making Wilson gloves
He breaks in a lot of gloves for the MLB Players and they trust him 100%
man i bought a franklin lol
Who on earth is judging him? It's like 'hey musk, what do you really know about cars without gas or going to another planet?
Yup! Like what does everyone think the A stands for 😅
@Tobias Casey yup, no one cares. I thought these posts were done and obsolete. Why not throw in 30,000,000 USD$ on behalf of the prince of sim salabim
i just watched 7 minutes of an asian dude beating the crap out of a baseball glove
Dandan95406 if that’s all you got out of this video, then you weren’t paying attention.
@@pyro791 Right on.
@@pyro791 so serious 🥴
This guy is not just an Asian guy, he is a legend
i read this comment before watching the video and for the whole video, i was just laughing.
Lol look how ripped his arms are from doing this
This
Oh shit. I just seen that😂😂
so we basically put hot water and beat the glove up
Yea that's no joke
So I treat the glove like my childhood bully... gotcha
Without Aso life would be different.
0:06 you said it not me
Bruh... I watched this at least 12 times and I'm in tears. "Ma Aso" is what he should put on a shirt.
Thank you for the laugh!!
I heard “ima aso” and “in ma aso” 😂😂
🤣
0:04 Dont be so harsh on your self bud.
That's pretty good lol!
If your scared doing this just play catch
Always just played catch. Granted I was a kid and didn't need an immediate break in
so we basically put hot water and beat the glove up
Dumbass
Just pretend it’s your wife
he’s a professional and broke in Brandon Phillips glove
Thats about right etc.
Idiot
At 6:56...The absolute expert in gloves says, "Playing catch is the best way to break in a glove. This is the short cut way...." So, if you're worried about jacking up your glove by beating it up, just listen to Aso and go play catch.
A lot of you guys don't understand that this is the fucking Glove God.
My Son saw my boiling some water & he asked me " DadYou making some coffeee.?" I said no I am about to beat the S**T out of that new Baseball glove that I bought a while ago. " Works for me."
MyREDTAIL r/thathappened
He is brilliant. Forget all of the other videos; take his word for how to do this.
You inspired me Aso. I used your method on one of my granddaughter's new gloves but, on her second one when I had misplaced the mallet, I did this and it worked to perfection! First, I gave the glove a generous coat of Neats Foot oil, my old-old favorite. Then I placed the glove on the floor on a piece of cardboard so as not to get oil on the floor. Then I removed my shoes and using my 200 lbs of body weight and my heels, gave that glove a complete "loosening up" workout, inside and outside, for about 5 minutes. Voila! A loose glove! The extra weight added to the glove by the amount of oil is negligible!
I was watching the video in the background, all I could hear was banging and slapping 😂
Hey to the people who disliked this the problem isn’t with him it’s with you
He probably makes the best pizza
I'm gonna go use this on my Rawlings Pro Preferred 🤣
This dudes got Popeye forearms...
His dinner plates are probably A2000's lol gloves hold up well mines ummm let me see got it when I was 14 I'm 27 now and still going strong!!
This relieves so much stress😂😂
The water discolored my custom blonde a2000. Kinda sad
A guy I know was in upper management at Wilson and he made it possible for me to spend a day with Aso to learn glove lacing and break in. It was great.
Should i do it to my a2000 which is grey leather
Is it the dp15 all grey
This works I got a red, white and blue A2k yesterday. I was skeptical about the water, but nothing bad happened. Just follow what he says to do and your glove will be good.
Awesome advice from the Master Craftsman, Aso!
Aso Question,? After this is done, Is it ok to use a good learther Glove conditioner on the glove to keep the leather from drying out tc.?
Yes
Put rawlings lace on your wilson gloves please
Why
Wilson laces are thin and cheap@@navalsealsnipersports1199
If your scared of running sexy new a2000 just do this without the water, trust me it works
Here is the thing.....hes breaking in the glove this way because most major leaguers dont use the same glove for more than a year or 2. Using water on a glove is not the greatest thing long term but is the best way to break in the glove as soon as possible. I will use this technique with my 11 year olds glove I will be getting soon and will probably need to purchase a new glove in a couple years because of him growing.
This is the steps I followed, now my glove is perfect! Thank you!!!!
My team also followed these steps! By the way, Nathan great video on your baseball drills for First base! We used your drill today at our practice! Thank you!
I used this video to helps us break in our gloves as well! Great tutuorial! Nathan! you're a baller! I saw your batting cage videos!!! Keep it up!
thanks! DJ REIVAX
cool! me and my dad fo this a lot Jay Elay
I legit thought he said his name was a**hole at the beginning of the video
Lmao
Dude I broke my 12.75 a2000 in within 1-2 hours of repeating what he was doing, I also have blisters on my right hand 😂😂😂
Stage 1: Feel comfortable kneeling for 7 minutes.
I'm still working on stage 1.
Aso surgical with that mallet! He’s done this video so many times he can do this demo in his sleep!
This guy is the best, he knows what he is doing
When Aso San speaks…listen carefully!
After the glove is completely dry I use Nikona Glove Conditioner on it, Then put a baseball in the Pocket and use a glove wrap on it and store it like that etc.
Same. His method and the Nokona glove conditioner is how most all guys getting paid to play the game do it.
I just did this except adding the water and my new glove is already so much easier to close.
He is only good at beating up gloves lol
TurkeyKnives 222 he breaks in gloves for a lot of MLB athletes lol
TurkeyKnives 222 he fucking makes the gloves dumbass
Yep - and he is the GOAT!
Bullshit. Women too. But that's another video for another day
Gotta respect how he just sticks his hand into 150 degree water
I was too scared to do this, so I played catch. It was the worst idea ever. I couldn't even close the damn glove bcuz the leather was so stiff. What a fail by me
You need to start lifting weights bro...seriously though breaking in a high quality baseball glove is no joke, I couldn't believe how stiff my Pro Preferred was when i first got it...which in the end only makes it feel that much more rewarding to fully break-in... but yeah you for sure gotta do some stretching, creasing and breaking in of the leather before you attempt to play any actual catch, a week or so of couch catch and creasing your gloves break points helps get things started on the right path before hitting the field, but in all seriousness it can take months to break in a glove to game readiness, if your not rushing things and forcing the process like the aso method... my Pro Preferred was purchased just before winter, so I was in no rush to game it which allowed me to slowly take my time breaking it in over a few months just playing couch catch and molding it the way i want and the things still not fully broke in to my liking but its at least field ready cant wait to start ball now that springs around the corner.
Let me get this straight …. Submerge glove in boiling hot water then microwave for 15 minutes
Glove abuse at its finest
folded towel works
This dude is a legend and his name is literally a Cuss Word
Lol. Good one
I did this whole thing but without the hot water and it worked great
Dylan Wszolek hot water softens the leather and makes it easier to form that why he used hot water
I've used this method on 3 new gloves AND IT WORKS! In addition to the hot water I will use Lexol Leather Conditioner on days 2 and 3 but repeating Aso's glove beating method each time I apply Lexol. Lexol is not a thick paste like other glove conditioners. It's very liquidy and runny like water except that it contains Lanolin which is very good for the leather and it makes the glove highly pliable. Try it. You'll like it.
This guy is a legend in the baseball glove world. I think he knows what he's talking about
where do i get that awesome Aso shirt?
Plot twist: it’s a workout video, it’s arm day 😂
I have no heart to punish my new glove! LOL.. But I trust him.
It just takes a little patience
It takes a little time
A little perseverance
And a little uphill climb
People are talking like they should be skeptical of this guy lol
for infield i recommend using a 12 inch softball on the pocket when the glove is wet, then going to the 11 inch when its dry, only if you dont have a mallet. for outfield i recommend using a 12 inch softball for the whole process so you create a very deep pocket (the glove shouldnt be able to close easily around it, just enough that the edges close around it)
Infielders dont usually want a deep pocket
@@mariasalcedo9772. i know, but when the glove dries it shrinks back again
I apply a light coat of Vaseline, then pretend the glove is the wise guy at the field 😊
Senpai of gloves.
fucken weeb
He sounds just like he says “ hi I’m a asshole”😂
i tried it and it is so awsome
I won that glove .. He signed it also
mathew orozco either your lying, or your one lucky son of a bit**
You are one lucky SOB. I dont know If I could ever use an Aso signed and broke In glove. Id probably buy a glass case for It and put It on my mantle In the living room. Aso = glove legend.
hey cool i won something from that giveaway also i won a glove also but it was a a500 but it was still really cool and it was also signed by aso COOL
Orozco fam were you at
The only reason I believe you is because of the sheer amount of football memorabilia that I have.
Is there any long term cons about this technique
He had me at “Hi I’m an asshole from Wilson sporting goods”
This guyy is like a celebrity in the glove community
Why is this so funny
This is what I do to my glove when I do not make you play
I prefer the old fashion way,by playing catch.
Yes.. Only problem with that is when youre getting a good glove for a younger player that's not strong enough to squeeze a stiff glove... Also young kids don't throw hard enough to break in a glove on its own! These steps are very necessary in assisting your kid breaking in his new glove! 👍
Wtf those gloves are very soft, try Gema gloves( mexican brand) those are fucking hard
I just use it in practice for a few months. It's not really that complex.
Not really complex...
Like husky fans
Can i do this without the mallet
I use a 2 or 5 lb weight as a mallet.
12 inch softball, 1 inch drill, 12" of 3/4" PVC - makes a good mallet!
My only problem with wilson gloves, is the palm bubbles with the middle ans ring finger. What causes that?
Random Asian guy
I swear i heard " im asshole"
this guy is a pounding machine
Is it OK to put water on a suede glove?
The way he uses that mallet is like a Japanese chef demonstrating how to use a Japanese knife… be careful of your fingers! Incredible! 😮😮😮
There isn't a set way to do it. It's leather. It's essentially skin. So just don't use things that deteriorate the leather ie petroleum products. Everything else is fine. If it absorbs alot it can chamge color and add weight. That's it. Wet it beat it
Aso is goated love this man
I think your room and backdrop need to be enlarged by about 40% if you were hoping for that "in studio" look. ;)
Twfs
Nate
Aso doesn't put up with gloves giving him crap! "What did you say glove?!"...Smack!!
Thank you sir. I appreciate your wisdom.
Bro is just casually touching the 170° water
When he had his hand in the glove I was like fuck dude watch the fuck out because I thought he was about to fucking shatter his hand into a million pieces
if you don’t have a mallet just get a baseball, put it in a sock, twist it and use that as a mallet.
I used this method and the green laces and piping ran and turned my white glove green. Anything I can do???
I just use this method to soften lace and form it to hand
+Cant Cutch This why do i see u everywhere
+Cant Cutch This For real same here, see u everywhere on random baseball videos
+Tanner Pierce cause when I have nothing to do at night I just binge watch stuff lol
Hot water then beat the glove like it owes you money. Got it. Lol
this guy knows all about baseball gloves. if the pros trust him you can too.
🐐
I heard hot water and pocket atleast 75 times
I want that glove so bad
he gave away that glove and it was signed, i won a glove from that giveaway but it was a wilson a500 but it was signed by aso so i guess it was cool
Aso you are a legend my friend! Thanks for the video and details.
This is a voice over. He found out he didn't make the team after 35 years of practice.
Do not use water it will reduce the life of the leather and drag out the leather quicker
If your angry or something it will be relieved if you will break in a glove
I'm a Aso
