Can't break in your glove? Break it in with the Akadema Mitt Masher. Clutch the bat handle while working on the pocket of the glove with a ball shaped hammer. The MittMasher glove mallet will help you break in your new fastpitch softball glove quickly. If your new glove is really stiff the Akadema Mittmasher glove mallet can really pound that leather into shape.
Apply a small amount of Akadema Glove Conditioner to the palm of your glove and then work the pocket of your new glove with the MittMasher. Wearing the glove while working the pocket will ensure a more custom fit and break in. This is similar to playing catch. We do recommend playing catch as the best method for break in but when no partner is available using the MittMasher mallet is the next best thing. These new gloves are made from the highest quality leathers and require some break in and care to make them last many seasons on the fastpitch field.
