How to Condition a Baseball Glove: The Professional Method

Why Chemistry Matters: The Mitt-Spit Difference Conditioning is vital for preserving your glove's flexibility, but using the wrong product can permanently damage the leather's fiber structure. Unlike generic store-bought oils that often lack pH stability or contain unstable fats prone to rancidity, Mitt-Spit Glove Oil is precision-engineered by the leather restoration specialists at Advanced Leather Solutions. We rely on the strict science of leather to create a formula that is chemically identical to the leather's needs—preventing fiber decay while maintaining optimal suppleness. Because our formula is a premium concentrate, a small amount goes a long way, ensuring your glove remains lightweight and responsive without the heavy, greasy residue common in cheaper alternatives. Trust the chemistry professionals use to protect your investment.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the glove is clean and dry.

  2. Application: Apply a small amount of Mitt-Spit Glove Oil to a soft cloth (never apply directly to the leather).

  3. Massage: Rub the oil evenly into the surface. Use a massaging motion to penetrate the fibers, focusing on stiff areas.

  4. Absorption: Allow the glove to rest for several hours or overnight. This allows the "science of leather" to work, restoring the internal lubricants.

  5. Finish: Wipe down with a soft cloth to remove any excess.

Regular conditioning with Mitt-Spit prevents cracking and extends the performance life of your investment.
