Worn, stretched, or broken laces can change the shape, structure, and performance of your glove. Our complete relacing service replaces worn lace with premium glove lace and includes a thorough cleaning and conditioning to refresh and protect the leather while the glove is unlaced.
Relacing is an ideal time to give the entire glove a thorough cleaning because removing the old laces gives us better access to areas that are difficult to reach when the glove is fully laced. We carefully remove dirt, sweat, grime, and buildup, then condition the leather using high-quality cleaners and conditioners formulated specifically for baseball and softball gloves.
Once the leather is clean and conditioned, we install premium replacement glove lace throughout the glove.
Different glove styles use different lacing patterns and construction. Choose the service that matches your glove so we can give it the attention its design requires.

You do not have to wait for a lace to completely break. Worn lace can affect support and shape long before it fails.
Broken or frayed laces
Laces that have become thin or brittle
Loose or stretched web laces
A pocket that has lost its shape
Excessive movement in the web or fingers
Lace that repeatedly loosens during play
Older lace that no longer provides proper support
Every full relace includes a thorough cleaning and conditioning while the old laces are removed. This gives us better access to the glove and lets us address the leather at the same time we replace the worn lace.
We remove the existing laces and inspect the glove for wear, damaged areas, and anything that should be addressed before new lace is installed.
With the old laces removed, we can reach areas that are difficult to clean when the glove is fully assembled. We thoroughly remove dirt, sweat, grime, and buildup, then use high-quality cleaners and conditioners made specifically for glove leather to replenish moisture and help protect against drying and cracking.
Premium glove lace is installed throughout the glove with the appropriate tension for its design. We then complete the finishing details and a final inspection to make sure the glove is clean, secure, and ready to get back on the field.
