Catchers mitt repair and relacing
Catchers mitts are built different and they break down different. Thicker leather, heavier lacing, unique web patterns. We know the differences and repair accordingly.
Why catchers mitts need specialized repair
A catchers mitt absorbs hundreds of pitches per game. That kind of repeated impact breaks down lacing faster than any other position. The web takes the brunt of it, but the pocket, hinge, and heel all wear at an accelerated rate.
Catchers mitts also use thicker, heavier lace than fielder gloves. The wrong lace gauge or tension can ruin your pocket shape and make framing feel off. We use the right materials and lace to the right tension for catchers-specific needs.
Whether you are behind the plate in travel ball, high school, college, or rec leagues, your mitt is your most important piece of equipment. We treat it that way.
