How do i get my softball glove to wear in?
There are a lot of different tricks you can do: 1.) When you go to bed at night, put a softball inside of the glove and then put about six or eight rubber bands on the outside of the glove to help it conform to the shape of a ball. 2.) To give it elasticity, bend the glove completely inside out (it sounds crazy, but it works). When you have it turned inside out put something very heavy on it, be careful not to puncture, or scar the leather when you put something heavy on it. 3.) Good ol’ glove oil. If you go to any sporting goods store they will have glove oil. Just work the oil into the glove with an old cloth. Concentrate on the inside of the mit where you want to form a good crease for flexibility. Don’t use too much oil, or it will start coming off on the balls when you catch them. Just work the oil in, in a circular motion. 4.) Play with it… The more you play catch with your glove the more it will naturally “break in” and conform to you hand. Good luck…
