Glove Tightening
Over time, a ball glove’s laces naturally stretch and loosen, causing the glove to lose its structure, pocket shape, and responsiveness. A loose glove can feel unbalanced, close unevenly, or lose the firm control that ballplayers rely on to make plays. Our Glove Tightening service restores that original, crisp feel by carefully re-tensioning and adjusting the glove’s existing laces.
Our Service
Each tightening service is done by hand, focusing on the areas that most commonly loosen with play — such as the fingers, web, heel, and pocket. Using our tools, we pull the laces back to their proper tension, ensuring even pressure throughout the glove.
This process preserves the original laces while still getting the most out of them, helping the glove regain its shape, stability, and a secure closure again.
Once tightened, the glove is inspected to ensure proper pocket depth and fitting. Each glove is lightly conditioned, allowing the glove to settle naturally into its renewed shape.
The Result
The result is a glove that feels firmer, more responsive, and game-ready — similar to when it was first broken in. Tightening not only improves feel and performance but also extends the life of the glove by reducing excess stress on loose or uneven laces.
