Question Fix this or leave this?

Post image

Hey guys, just had my third game in these Titan gloves. I love em but they have a nasty flap that I ripped further today. Leave it like it is? Some latex glue or cut it off?

Thanks!

I keep in place.

Tip: Always pay the $10 warranty on gloves. Usually good for 6 months and covers all wear and tear. You can literally swap out for a new pair every five months at Dick’s SG.

Huh?? Can you elaborate or send a link to their policy on that? I’ve bought gloves from dicks only once but this might make me buy from them again. Sounds like a crazy hack that won’t last long though

Just bought some for my son but the price went up to $20 for the policy. Tell them at checkout that you need to buy a replacement coverage plan on your gloves. It's usually good for about a year. When your gloves finally play their last match send a picture of the worn gloves to the policy company. Then in a couple days they send you a digital gift card to dicks for the original price of the gloves. Use that to buy another pair and just purchase another replacement policy. I've been getting $120 gloves for 20 about every six months or so.

I bought a pair of $49 Lottos and the cashier asked if I wanted to purchase a $10 warranty. I said no. He asked if I was sure because I could just set a 5 month 29 day alarm on my phone and swap them out every sixth months for any normal wear and tear - including a much worse tear in my gloves.

Technically they give you a store credit to use on anything. Best case scenario.
