Glove relacing

[erniekru]

Anyone who knows me knows I tend to be a little stupid when it comes to glove lace!

Rous recently re-laced the DFP glove of the year in Glovesmith lace, gotta say, it’s some more killer lace!

Those knots on the I-Web are throwing me for a loop? What are they and why??

Definitely not a square knot, every glove I’ve gotten back from Jeffrey is like that….and they never loosen up. But yeah, I understand your post.

Dan Davis’ work on the left, Rous’ work on the right. The lace on the right is Glovesmith lace, very stout & very substantial, so the knots are definitely larger!

Arizona Glove Lab's work on my daughter's cobalt Nokona. Yes, it has a Velcro strap. Sue me.

@ANNASDAD - can you send a closeup of that knot from another angle? Looks like it could be a sheet bend (don't think so, though), or some variation of a joining knot using overhand knots (water knot?). The Boy Scout in me needs to know...

Yes sir, this evening when I get home. You picked the one time when it's not on my hand here at work!

Here you go Gags, sorry so late.

The web base knot on this Pro207-RV23 is a simple knot, this is how I tie them.

I’m pretty vocal on crappy glove lace, the factory lace on this exclusive might be the nicest I’ve seen in years, it’s nice!

This 207-RV23 ^^^ pretty much checks all the boxes, it’s really is a fantastic glove! Numbered, only 54 total were ever made and it’s been sold out!

I’ll probably never use it, I may sell it to one of you boneheads in the near future, for one-million-dollars!

A belated thank you reply for the pic.

And I think it is actually a square knot - the laces just overlap a little because a) they’re flat laces and not rope, and b) they start out at a steeper angle b/c they’re coming up out of the glove, rather than sideways.
