ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for breaking in or conditioning athletic gloves, especially baseball gloves, includes a holder on which the glove can be mounted, this holder being in the semblance of a human hand, an air-operated cylinder unit includes an impact member carried at a working end of a rod of the cylinder unit so that by stroking the rod in a glove striking direction, the impact member is caused to strike a palm part of the glove thereby softening the leather at the palm part, this being done repeatedly until a softened pocket is formed in the glove palm to facilitate a user's catching a baseball therein and easily folding the glove finger part over the caught ball.
