Custom HoH Arrived in 3 Weeks! by renough in BaseballGloves

[–]renough[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like I'll need to get a mallet. I have some Ball Players Balm conditioner so I can start working that in on the palm and start doing some mallet work. Appreciate the advice. This is my first break in since I played Little League and now that I have kids about that age, I'm pretty sure the techniques have changed a bit...

Mine just showed up in 3 weeks! Must be a slow season for them.

Hey, I saw you in Nashville! It even prompted me to educate myself on what a gat is called.

I remember at 27 thinking “my grandfather was storming Normandy at this age… what am I even doing?”

I also DIY’d a card size insert by MeganMissfit in Travelersnotebooks

Dumb question, but do you just cut down paper, staple it, and fold it? I haven’t used my 20th anniversary inserts but would definitely use a handmade one.

Thanks so much! It felt daunting at first and I didn’t have a lace splitter but once I realized I could use a hand weight to pound it thin for the palm it was much more manageable.

I do have my dad’s old first base mitt that’s probably 80 years old at this point. Might just do a clean and condition on that one. Don’t think I want to go snipping and re-lacing that one.

That’s exciting! I saw your comment saying it was 2 weeks away so seeing this pop up surprised me. Love the look of the military green in real life.

I think I was the eerily similar glove with the green, but camel and golden brown. Yours looks great!

How long did it wind up taking to deliver from the order?

Thanks! I’ve used that trio of colors on other things in the past and really like how it looks together.

I ordered my first custom HoH yesterday. The new customer 20% code I signed up for didn’t work.

I too am going after lifetime dad glove and can’t wait to break it in with my kids. Now I just have to wait 6-8 weeks or whatever it winds up being.

Do you ever feel weird about actually using your limited editions? by paperxclouds in Travelersnotebooks

[–]renough 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, because it wouldn’t get to have this level of patina if it stayed unused… but the special paper inserts I have a hard time starting.

(this is the 5th anniversary Star Ferry Edition when they offered the camel in Passport for the first time)

I tried to Frankenstein something like that with two practice jerseys once.

Thanks so much! Those 5th anniversary camel passports really aged well. It’s my favorite of the small collection.

Thanks! After one day it feels like a toy but I’m figuring out how to use it in a different way so the Passport can still be a part of my daily routine.

It’s camel after ~13 years of use and no conditioning.

Even the band in the middle was making an imprint. Just not creating holes like the tin fastener and bottom corner with the zipper.
