Why can't you go into a sporting goods store and buy a glove like this anymore? I missed on it on eBay but was able to get it from Kevin at Sports Artifacts. I am very happy with this glove!

I came to this forum never having heard of Sonnett gloves. And each time I seen one here, I am so impressed. I'm going to have to start paying more attention to Sonnett. The leather on this one is gorgeous.

If we could still walk into sporting goods stores and pick up gloves like these, I'd be in heaven.

Questions

Postby oldreliable » April 19th, 2008, 6:15 pm

vintagebrett,

Did you have to clean this one up at all? The leather looks like it's glowing. Did you condition it with anything? If so, what? I want my gloves to look like this.

Thank you,

John,

It was conditioned with a light coat of lanolin, that was all this one took.
