How To Break In Your Goalie Glove 

I was wondering why I let in 10+ goals every time that I tried to play goalie...my glove wasn’t broken in.

The shower trick seems like a very gentle way of baking your glove. Great vid, will remember that for sure

If only you were closer to Edmonton I could steam that glove for you in a second. Lol. I own a Drycleaners we have steam on demand.

I just got a g4 glove and it came broken in completely. All I needed to do was adjust the strapping.

That's some good advice. I always break in a new glove by throwing it in a forearm training routine.

I needed this I have a ccm glove that is no where close to broken in even tho I have had it for about a year love the vids thank for the information

I personally used a method of taking a dish towel, wetting it down a lot and put in in the microwave for a minute. Carefully grab (it’s really hot) the towel out and put it in the crease and work it open and closed all the way. Repeat until glove is loose. Worked great on CCM axis2.5 where nothing else did. Hope it helps

The Vlog continues Friday morning. This was a big problem I personally had growing up trying to break in gloves. Hope this helps you - Trav

Thanks for the Tips!

My 1S glove has the issue with the centre foams intersecting and not closing properlly, I’ll try the glove sauna! Thanks trav!

Thanks for the info I'll use your method.

Oh damn!!! I just bought your Mike Smith leg pads! Thanks!!!

My favourite dude

when i was a kid i used a yellow glove and pushed the t bar against my left pad so much i could easily open and close it with my weak 12 year old hand

Nice video🔥👌😜

Good luck in Sweden bro

Trav are you sure the steam won't ruin the glove? Im ordering a custom optic glove and I tried the sink water method last time I had a glove and it ruined the glove and it was soaking wet for a year straight! will this do the same? and also will it be hot enough to break it in good

great vid trav

New glove. Use it. Start with practice and work from there. Wear it around the house. A lot of people like to bake it. Get it Uber warm and then put it on but in my experience it just breaks down the material faster. Fine if you’re using the gear for 6 months to a years but sucks for anything longer. If you’re looking to put some seasons in on the gear work it from new and keep it as natural as possible. Drying your gear after every use also will help with wear and breaking. Yes it actually helps the natural materials to work in wet and work it in and dry.

I just switched to goalie im 28..i guess its never too late cuz im told that i should have played goalie this whole time but ive played in a bunch of different teams even rep teams i guess being a goalie is a natural thing either u got it or u dont

Couldn't you buy some kind of steamer? That's an insane amount of wasted water

thanks, just got a new vaughn glove

Hi there. Any tips for a glove that gets dry and crusting on the inside making it hard to close? My son has a warrior glove, approx 1 year old. After games it’s taken out of the bag, hung in mud room and left to dry. We also use “gear halo” inside to minimize stinking. For the past month he has complained that his glove is all stiff and crusty, making it hard to close. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks from a goalie mom

Rubbing alcohol will loosen up the leather without breaking it down. As long as you don't over do it. Mix 1/4 rubbing and 3/4 water.

What game is this

Is this indoor lacrosses

Hi Trav

The shower method is the way to go!

i think that warrior glove you don't must breaking :) i have too new and work from beginning :)

Perfect I just go a new glove

Can you do a video on tips for beginners

Would it work to put glove into the washing machine? Or is that too hot and/or too wet??

I am also a Goalie in the Switzerland

whats the difference between the G4 and GT set?

Would this work if you put the glove in a dryer?

Hey guys, If you do want to bake your glove at home: -Set oven to 175F -Open the glove up -Place glove on middle rack, palm face down -Bake for 8-10 minutes Everything should be moldable, you can even fix a bad break by baking the glove.

I love some ew update! Haha

I had my Brian's glove for 6 months and it barley closes and I've tried practically everything

If that’s a $700-750 trapper you need some better connections. Pro glove would be $400-450 maybe a custom in the 6’s.

i just put it in super hot water overnight (YES i like my glove wet)

That you say is not true

If trav doesnt reply kane van gate is better

I have the same shower and tub as you wtf

Well, I have a process that is really quite precise A sort of secret method known to very few So, if you're in the market for professional advice Well today could be a lucky day for you shaving cream You rub that in for about five minutes, tie it all up with rubber bands, put it under your mattress, and sleep on it. And you do that for at least a week, every day, consistent.​ And though this method isn't easy Every second that you spend is gonna pay off It'll pay off in the end

So boil it in a pot

A G4 Pro glove is only $350 USD...
