Reply to "How Long Does A Glove Last?"

I read an article several years back about how pros have their gloves "reconditioned" by the manufacturer (probably only 2-3 folks who have been working leather for 20+ years) - what this meant was that about 25-50% of the material was replaced and all new material was cut to exacting standards using their personal templates. I think it also spoke about individuals in the organization that were responsible for breaking in the glove. This may be limited to the top tier folks, but I assume the announcer must have had some access to this type of service (given he was a 15 year veteran).
