Product Description

Looking to purchase a brand new glove and have it expertly broken in? Look no further than HeadbangerSports.Com! With a selection of over 600 different baseball and softball gloves, we will ship your chosen glove to you with a practice-ready break-in. Why practice ready you ask? This is because we have found that completely breaking in a glove can leave it misshaped and uncomfortable for fielders, we understand the importance of molding a glove to fit perfectly to player's hand. This allows the glove to feel like more of an extension of their hand instead of a tool. 

With our years of experience in baseball and softball and our love for collecting ball gloves, we know the right way to break in your glove. Our meticulous process will give you a glove that meets your satisfaction. Don't waste up to 8 weeks of your time breaking in a new glove - trust the Headbanger Sports Glove Break-In Service. 

Product Features: 

We shoot to have your glove broken-in around 5 business days, please note during busy seasons this can take 7-10 days to ship out.

  • This is an additional service for gloves purchased from us here at Headbanger Sports. We do not offer the ability to send your gloves in to us at this point in time. 
  • 70-80% Break In Service: this is to ensure you can form the glove to your final liking. Never should someone else finalize your glove break-in, this is to ensure the glove fits and forms to your hand. 
  • Leather Conditioning helps soften the leather for a more game like broken in feel.
  • Mallet and Machine Softened, we use hand malleting techniques to begin the break in, and machine break-in to finalize pockets and hinges properly.
  • Our Promise to You: We will NEVER use a Steamer on your glove. We will never put your glove in a steamer and are always 100% against using this technique.
  • Hinge Forming Included, this helps your glove be broken in properly without having misshaped pockets and hard to close gloves.
  • Please note Break-In Fee and Glove that is purchased are Non-Returnable once broken in. We don't think you'll need to hear this, but unfortunately we need to post it.
  • Please note that light colored gloves with colored lacing may bleed some. This is due to the dye used on the lacing. We try avoid this from happening but sometimes we can not.

Coach Rac: Is a Glove Break-In Actually Worth It?

"It's Cash Money!!! Great Work." -Coach Rac

How did Rac test our break-in?

1. How Easy Is It To Close? On a scale from 1-10 (1 being brand new and 10 having this glove for 30 years), I ranked it a 5. That is pretty much exactly what I want, you don't want your glove to be to broken in right out of the gate because it's not going to mold to your hand. No Ejecto Button in the middle...that is a very big deal for me!

2. How well will it hold over time? Time will tell, I just unboxed this glove. But right now it has just enough stiffness that I can still catch a ball well and it's just stiff enough it will still shape to my hand perfectly over time.

3. Can I catch a ball with it? We'll let you watch the video and see for yourself!
