Late night in the shop turning a Nolan Ryan glove into something meant to be carried every day.
Heading to bed now 🥱😴 #customorder #sold

Hard to believe this is my first Kenny Lofton mitt I’ve ever turned into a wallet.
After all these years… this legend finally made it to my bench.
I kept the Rawlings patch and that Special Edition stamp because gloves like this deserve to keep telling their story.
From chasing down fly balls to riding in someone’s back pocket.
Some leather just carries history differently. ⚾
Cleveland fans… where were you when Lofton was stealing bases?

Check up the seriously awesome coffee bar build I did for @SRoe86 and @BlakeWalker23. The payoff… Donuts, baby…
Sarah Roe@SRoe86
This coffee bar didn’t come from a store it came from a friend @bowthemaker with a huge heart and serious talent. He drove from Canada, stayed for 19 days, drafted the blueprints, and built this entire thing with just the tools in his truck and supplies I’ve been picking up for the last few months. Feeling so lucky to have a friend like this. Thank you for making our home even more special. ☕️💚🇨🇦 @BlakeWalker23 thanks for the epic dance moves.

Ever wonder what it takes to turn an old baseball mitt into a wallet?
It’s not as simple as cutting leather and stitching it back together — each piece has its own story, scars, and character.
First, the mitt has to be carefully taken apart. Every stitch removed. Every layer separated. The years of dirt, sweat, and game-day grit are cleaned and conditioned without losing that original feel.
Then comes the rebuild — reshaping and skiving thick glove leather, finding the right layout to showcase the markings, laces, or player signatures that make it special. Every edge burnished, every pocket aligned, every stitch pulled by hand.
And finally, it’s all brought back together — a piece of baseball history, reimagined to live on in your everyday carry.
Each wallet is 1-of-1. Each tells its own story.
Wallets drop tomorrow at 3 PM EST — limited quantities!
If you find it in your heart to reshare, please do — my small business greatly appreciates it. 🖤

If you’re not following @TalesfromtheAFL I can’t recommend it enough. Todd’s father was an antique dealer, and through his stories, Todd keeps his dad’s spirit and love for history alive. It’s a beautiful blend of memory and storytelling.

I recently sent @SRoe86 some old gloves and things that I found in my old man’s collections after he passed away in March. I posted the story on IG (@theoldmansplace), but Sarah suggested I post it here as well. Enjoy!

@SRoe86 has got something cooking at her workbench!

@PeteBMLC It’s this pattern created by @bowthemaker but I’d do my own twist on it and use mitt for the pouch and inside would be new leather that holds the pens. I do like your idea on who’s mitt to use. Just curious if maybe I should do a mitt with no name but neat markings on it.
