Glovesmith glove questions

Thanks to everyone just got back home. She tried several different gloves on and ordered one. It will be 4-6 weeks before we get. Great experience super friendly guy. Nice way to spend the morning. Since she plays outfield most of the time we decided to go with the 12.5 glove. When it comes in I will share some pics.

Nice, please tell me you opted for split welting and not rolled?

I don't remember being ask about split or rolled just the color.

I did ask about the split or rolled. Split was not an option in tobacco color.

I want to thank everyone again and share some pictures just got the glove. The quality is great glove is very stiff got to get it broke in. Any break in suggestions appreciated.

High quality glove and very durable. But the gloves are very heavy,LBS, and they almost feel like they never break in.

Old school fastback!! Man I bet this one is going to be a fun break-in, masonsx5 above is right, they're 70's / 80's era tough gloves! Don't be scared to get rude with this break-in!

I've had very good luck with warm water sparingly sprayed over the glove (ensuring hand stall pointed down) and beat it to death with a glove mallet. There are some really good videos on youtube, a good start is the Aso method for glove break in.

Good luck
