Found my holy grail of outfield gloves. A mint NOS with tags Horween TB24 (mine and everyone else’s favourite player growing up - man I miss seeing that swing).

I want to maintain its pristine condition. Any recommendations on conditioning the leather so it doesn’t dry out while also keeping it looking like it does today? I was thinking sarna leather conditioner (liquid or cream?), but if anyone else has some recommendations, I would greatly appreciate it!

6. Yamamoto glove studio (Ygs) proline (top model) EA3 model: TG North European leather (excellent grip to this leather giving it almost a “squeaky” feel). Hinges are worked in, but otherwise still needs to be broken in to be game ready

Finally found the pitcher’s model at a decent price and jumped on it. I usually don’t go for pitcher’s patterns, but this was an exception to complete the set. Very happy and thankful to now have all three in my collection

Managed to find a mint unused primo and this cool Nike shado Vapor elite J outfield model.

The primo leather is some of the best I’ve ever felt. It’s like wearing a fine leather couch on my hand. Beautiful glove, but so damn heavy and I couldn’t imagine gaming it! The Nike, in contrast, is quite the opposite - light and nimble! Excited to use the Nike

Looking for any tips I can do to achieve the best break in for my KB17 for slow pitch.

Coming from a 11.25 inch baseball glove last year this is already a huge improvement for pocket size, but looking for any other recommendations/constructive criticism so I can get an even better break in!

Thanks in advance!

In Canada on
