Professional baseball players carefully condition their leather gloves with special oils to keep them flexible and game-ready. The most popular choices include mink oil, lanolin, and petroleum-based conditioners that penetrate the leather fibers without over-softening. Breaking in a new glove can take weeks of oiling, pounding, and playing catch. Interestingly, many players reject common household oils like olive oil or motor oil, which can actually damage the leather by making it too soft or causing rot.
