Reply to "When Mitts Get Old"

You can just have it re-laced and ask for it to be tighter.  That will take care of restoring shape and looseness but not any padding issues.  There usually isn't a whole lot of padding in the palm anyway (by design - even the top end mitts) and he can use one of dozens of types of palm pads out there that are usually pretty cheap.  Catchers mitts are definitely more work than fielders gloves but you can usually find someone willing to re-lace for about $50.  Once you get into padding replacement, price goes way up.  That's when I would just be looking for the right gloves on sale to keep the backup pipeline full.

I lace mitts and can do it for that if you can't find anyone.  I only keep black and tan lace in stock though.
