Title: Palm Replacement?
Post by: Cover_Drive on December 13, 2011, 07:35:03 AM
Is that even possible for gloves?

I really like the Powerbow Test gloves Manormanic is selling because of (http://www.pakpassion.net/ppforum/images/smilies/yousuf1.gif) hence was thinking of buying them perhaps..

Unless you are doing it for collection's sake you can might as well get a new glove bro. If it is a Yousuf memento then no price is too much  ;)

A lad at my club had his palm chewed by his dog, his Mum replaced the chewed bit with some leather, and they've held up all season. I think if you know someone who is good with the sewing machine/hand stitching then it is possible to some extent

I might have to find a dog first mate who can chew the gloves palm!

Im sure it would just be a case of unstitching the palm, and then tracing the outline of the palm onto some more leather and being careful sewing it back on, could try an upholstery place possibly?
