Glove Loops Hack

Gonna try this out.  Pretty happy with the feel at home.

Having trouble with my new Bauer glove not feeling tight and one reason was the thumb and pinky loops coming loose too easily. 

Simple hack with slider clasps that will allow some adjustments but will stay tight once set.

I think it's pretty cool.   I spend FOREVER trying to get these right, so I'm looking forward to trying this out. 

It's so simple.  Surprised it hasn't been done before by a gear company,  honestly .

I got the 4 for $10 at a fabric store.

I use the pinky one loosely just to separate my fingers but not the thumb one at all because I hate the way it feels. 

Is that the same for all gloves or you or just the Bauer Mach?

All the gloves I have ever used I just don’t like the feel 

Ok, well fair enough. It's always good to nail down what you like and don't like, that's for sure.

I like the idea.  I can't tie knots for S#%$, never have really gained that skill.  But recently found these tails that were previously untouched on my Vaughn glove, and finally tightening them has made a WORLD of difference in the feel and responsiveness of the glove.  Never had anyone teach me that there were adjustments to be made there, before.  My first glove was just dialed in right by previous owner i guess, that I never had need to mess with it.  Currently have some semblance of a knot, or maybe a tangle, but it has held for a few games at least.  But the slider is a good thought, IMO.

Give it a try. It worked great and felt amazing.  

I really love this glove now.
