The process of creating a Marucci Custom glove is broken down into eight steps:

1. Leather Selection & Cutting

2. Stamping

3. Embroidery

4. First sewing/Assembly

5. Turnover/Iron and Molding/Insert Lining

6. Second Sewing/Binding

7. Lacing

8. Forming/Break-In

SECOND SEWING/BINDING

After the lining is inserted and carefully molded to the shell of the glove, it needs to be secured together, also known as binding.

The binding section is the area at the bottom of the glove where you insert your hand and covers the rough edges left by inserting the lining into the shell. Binding provides comfort when putting on or taking off the glove and provides an aesthetic finishing touch.

The binding at the bottom and the back of the hand opening is sewn slowly into place and the excess leather is then trimmed so you only see clean, rounded edges.

Once binding is sewn and trimmed, the glove is ready to be laced and formed.
