Best Baseball Mitt Treatments of 2025

"I had a few old baseball gloves, and this product really helped revive them. It actually works."

"I used it on my grandson's new glove, and it had a nice consistency. We applied a layer, tied the glove with a ball, and repeated it a few times. It developed a rounded pocket, and the glove became easy to hold. The leather feels supple and conditioned. Overall, I'd say it was a good value."

"I’ve always relied on Rawlings products for my gloves, but I recently tried one from another company that turned out to be garbage. I quickly returned to Rawlings, which remains my go-to."

"I had never heard of this product until I needed to break in a new glove quickly for my son. Amazon delivered it the next day, and it worked perfectly. I successfully broke in two Rawlings gloves without damaging the leather, and my son says his glove feels just as good as the last one. Thanks!"

"I struggled with my super stiff custom Rawlings Heart of the Hide glove, trying various methods like oils and water. Nothing worked until I tried this product. Now, my glove feels fantastic!"

"When I ordered this, I needed it right before my game, and it arrived just in time. This product was exactly what I needed for my glove!"

"At 65 years old, I wanted my new glove to feel like my old XL 2000. I applied this leather softener, and it worked wonders! My gloves became smooth and supple, almost like I was 11 again, playing baseball by my school!"

"I got this product to break in my grandson's new glove. After using it, he thought it was the best thing ever! It made the glove much more flexible and easy to handle."

"I used this softener on a baseball glove I bought. It works great, just like the products I used in my youth. I definitely recommend it!"

"I was a bit skeptical at first, especially since my son's new Mizuno glove was incredibly stiff. However, after applying this product, the difference was remarkable after just one treatment. I don't think I'll need to use it again; he'll break it in during practice. Best $10 spent! My son is thrilled!"

"I needed to break in a new glove quickly for my son, and this product really delivered. It did its job perfectly, making the glove easier to handle in no time. I've used it multiple times, and it consistently works well!"

"This stuff works like a charm! After the first application, my glove was significantly more pliable and easy to maneuver. I used two applications to ensure it felt just right. Highly recommend it!"

"I have no idea what magic they used, but it took my 40-year-old dried-out and cracked mitt and made it look better than new. After the first coat, it looked great, but after a second treatment, it restored the color, and the cracks are gone. This stuff is amazing! I even used it on some old leather belts, and they look fantastic again. Plus, the plug stopper in the bottle prevents messy leaks. Highly recommended!"

"I ordered this oil hoping it would work like my old glove oil, and I'm thrilled with the results. It has been outstanding for my three old gloves, helping to both firm and loosen them perfectly. It also works wonders for breaking in my new glove."

"I bought this product for a new glove, but it arrived already broken in. Instead, I’ve been using it on some older gloves, and the difference is noticeable. They look great and are nice and clean. It's easy to use—just rub it on, let it sit for a bit, and then rub it out."

"This product works so much better than the liquid glove conditioners I’ve tried before. It absorbs well into the leather and keeps my 30+ year-old glove looking great. I've also used it on my son's newer mitts and they all shine after polishing. Highly recommend!"

"I bought a used glove that was really dried out. After applying the conditioner multiple times, the glove became very usable and soft. I even put a baseball in it and rubber banded it overnight. It took a bit of product, but it was worth it!"

"I was impressed with how this conditioner worked on all three of my newer gloves. No blemishes or oily residue were left behind, just clean leather that looked as good as new. I let them dry overnight naturally, and they feel in much better health now. I highly recommend this!"

"I was amazed by how well this cream worked on my leather GST football and A1000 glove. The difference was remarkable—the GST felt softer and cleaner after conditioning. Now, I just need to apply some beeswax for better tackiness. After a quick water dunk, I used the conditioner, and the leather regained its suppleness. I can see this being great for ongoing equipment maintenance."

"After trying out this conditioner, I can confidently say that it's fantastic! It was easy to apply and came with a convenient application pad that really helped to get the conditioner deep into the glove leather. I’ve never had such success with other cloths before."

"I bought this for my son to go with his new glove, and I'm thrilled with how it turned out. The scent of the conditioner was surprisingly pleasant, and its smooth texture made application a breeze. I’m really happy with this product!"

“I ordered this product because I had a glove that was dry as cardboard and difficult to use. After following the directions and applying the product, I was amazed at the results! My old glove is now soft and supple, and my child's vinyl glove is finally easy to close for catches. I’m not a professional reviewer, but I’m completely satisfied with this product's performance.”

“This product really helped with breaking in my son's new glove. It was straightforward to use, and the instructions were easy to follow. There’s plenty left for a few more gloves, which is a nice bonus!”

“I had been struggling with another glove conditioner for months, but this product did the job after just two applications. I was truly impressed with how quickly my glove was broken in. Just a heads-up: if your glove has dye, it might come off a little. Other than that, it's a great product!”

“This is the best all-around glove conditioner I've ever used! It works wonders on baseball mitts and leather gloves, whether for driving or duty. Paired with the Rhino wax, my gloves have never performed better!”

“I found that it took a couple of applications to soften my grandson's glove and about 2-3 times to soften a new leather dog leash. It's much healthier than most products for kid gloves and dog leashes. I found it easy to use and it worked well to soften the leather, making it a good value.”

“Initially, I thought the oil discolored my gloves, but after some great customer service and further research, I realized it actually brings out the natural color of the glove. If the manufacturer uses any dyes, it enhances those too. Overall, it was fantastic for softening the glove and extending the leather's lifespan!”

"I bought my daughter a new catcher's mitt, and this product worked great for breaking in the glove faster. Just be careful not to use it on imitation leather, as it could distort the color."

"I had no problems following the instructions. I found that conditioning the glove more often is beneficial if desired. The microwaveable bag is sturdy, and I recommend checking out some YouTube videos on glove break-in for extra confidence!"

"The microwave bag worked perfectly for me; I played a game just two hours after receiving the glove!"
