If you leave your glove out in the rain or something, here is a tutorial on how to properly dry it.

Step 1: Shake off all of the extra water on it.

Step 2: Carefully take towel and dry glove (Do NOT swipe too hard!)

Step 3: Cut finger shaped cylinders out of newspapers and put them in the fingers holes.

Step 4: Put some newspaper in the pocket area also.

Step 5: Use a rubber band to hold the glove together.

Step 6: Do NOT Heat the glove or it WILL ruin the leather!

Step 7: Put it in an open area near a window and let it air-dry

Step 8: Check on it every hour or so. If the newspaper gets too wet, replace it.

Step 9: Wait, this process make take a day or 2.


Hope this helps 8)

I feel like the ink from te newspaper would bleed into the fingers of the glove once it got wet... But that's just me. And who leaves a glove in he rain in the first place. It should either be in a dugout, bag, or on you. Never leave it out :p
