Recken Custom Glove Care Guide
Your Recken Custom Glove is built for performance and durability. Follow these simple care tips to keep it game-ready for seasons to come.
Keep It Clean
Wipe off dirt, dust, and sweat using a soft, damp cloth after each use.
Avoid harsh cleaners—a little water is all you need to maintain the leather’s quality.
Store It Properly
Keep it cool and dry – Store indoors away from direct sunlight and extreme heat.
Avoid crushing – Never leave your glove in a gear bag where it can lose shape.
Preserve the Shape
Place a baseball or softball in the pocket and wrap it with a band when not in use.
Never force your glove into an unnatural shape—it’s designed to mold naturally over time.
Check & Replace Laces
Regularly inspect your glove’s laces and stitching for signs of wear.
If the laces break or loosen, get them professionally re-laced to keep your glove secure.
⚠️ What NOT to Do:
❌ Don’t soak your glove in water – This weakens the leather.
❌ Don’t use heat sources (hairdryer, microwave, oven, etc.) – Heat dries out and cracks leather.
❌ Avoid household oils like Vaseline or mink oil, as they can clog leather pores and affect durability. Instead, use a quality glove conditioner designed specifically for baseball gloves to maintain flexibility and prevent drying out.
