Wilson A2000 Catchers Mitt A2403 BB1719
Glove Description:
This catchers mitt web has been fixed with brand new laces The owner of this mitt had the most important lace in a catchers mitt break on him during a game. That lace connects the half moon web together so no ball can sneak through it. It was a quick and easy fix and was game ready within a few minutes of relacing. No ball should be slipping through there any time soon.
Rawlings Heart of Hide Pro 1000-9JB
Glove Description:
This 12 year old leather has been conditioned to reduce cracking. The old black worn out laces have been replaced with royal blue laces, to give it a fresh new look. The glove has been restructured and reformed back to its original brand new condition. It is as stiff as the day it was made and will need to be broken in once again.
Rawlings PROSC47
Glove Description:
With this being one of my personal gloves I had already relaced it and did all the custom logo work to it a while back. The logos were looking a little dull since the glove is 11 years old. So I gave them a unique and different look to them while still being able to read that it is a Rawlings. I colored the dirty white Rawlings stitching black and gave the dull red a face lift, after doing this I changed the two white lines in the logo that were also going brown due to dirt black as well. After doing this I gave it a bold black border around the entire logo. It gives it a one of a kind unique look while still being able to tell it is a true Rawlings.
Rawlings Pro Preferred PROSNP5KRT
Glove Description:
This Rawlings Pro Preferred PROSNP5KRT, was put into a heated oven because the owner read it would break in the glove better and faster. That caused for early leather cracking and extremely brittle lace. It needed a little extra TLC. It took two sessions of conditioning the leather to get it playable again. The laces were extremely brittle and hard as a rock. I took those laces out and put in new black ones like the owner wanted. It gave it a new different look and gave it back its form and structure.
Rawlings G204B
Glove Description:
The leather on this glove was still in decent condition with it not being that old. But I still conditioned it so it would have its original black color back and not a dark gray. The laces were becoming a little soft so I reclaced the entire glove with a little stiffer lace to give form back to the glove, not to mention a different look going from all black to some tan in there. The logo was looking a little dirty so I took the time and cleaned that up so it popped once again and had the great red color like before.
Rawlings Gold Glove GGP200-4
Glove Description:
This glove was in some rough shape when I got to working on it, the glove owner's dog got a hold of it and ate the lacing on the right side of his trapeze web and bit one of the eyelet holes out. I first repaired the eyelet hole by using heavy duty string and stitching it back to make the eyelet hole again. I then began to give it a nice conditioning because the leather was worn out and sun damaged. After that was done I did a complete relacing of the glove and it's looking good as new.
Wilson A2000 Dual Hinge
Glove Description:
This Wilson A2000 has seen better days. It needed a lot of conditioning to bring the dry cracking leather back to life. All the laces were original so they were very brittle. I replaced those with new red ones to add a little different look and for the owner to cheer on his favorite team, the South Carolina Gamecocks.
Rawlings Gold Glove GGE1275BR
Glove Description:
This Rawlings Gold Glove GGE1275BR was in decent shape, minus having soft laces and the trapeze webbing was coming undone. I conditioned the leather to clean it up and bring back the color. I also relaced the glove with black to give it a fresh new look and to bring back its shape. The owner also wanted her summer ball team color incorporated so I put the blue in the trapeze to make it stand out.
