I recently purchased a Nike fielding glove that needs repair.
It looks like the leather tore off from the stitching. Most glove
repair guys I found either only deal with re-lacing or a specific
brand like Rawlings. I was wondering if anyone can provide me
with contact information of someone that might be able to help me
get this glove repaired.
Thanks

Did you buy it to use it or as a collection item?

I have a killer game used glove that had a similar seam break, but I would never repair it as it is critical to a photomatch.

you might try this other forum for repair/restoration recommendations...

Goh:

Email me at sox83cubs84@hotmail.com. I have a POSSIBLE solution, but don't want to publish it on site until I see whether it works or not.

Hello Wes/Dave,
Thank you guys for your suggestions. Dave, I emailed you.
Wes, I am in the memorabilia business and i bought this glove
which is almost brand new, to resell to a collector. I assume
anyone who buys this glove will keep it as a collectible.
I will check out that other forum; I have already contacted the
moderator who owns that site and has his own repair business
to see if he/she can help me.
Thanks again guys,
Goh Nishiyama
