Baseball glove laces, tools & restoration.
For over 40 years, everyday players, collectors, and pros have trusted John Golomb with their baseball gloves and other leather sporting goods. We cut the leather lace and supply the tools for others who restore them, handcraft boxing gloves in New York, and share the history behind the work.
GOLOMB BOXING
American-made.
Built by hand.
Boxing gloves made in our New York studio.
John Golomb leads the work, from cutting the leather to assembling each pair, with his daughter and apprentice, Joie, working alongside him. Our two-person family studio carries generations of sporting goods knowledge into every pair.

THE OTHER SIDE OF SPORTS
Made for the Game.
Every piece of equipment has a story. We follow the makers, materials, and manufacturing that shape the sports we play.
Through history, close looks at how things are made, and a few good questions, we give the work behind the game a closer look.
We make.
We repair.
We supply.
Five generations in sporting goods shaped how we make and repair. John brings more than 40 years of restoration and design expertise; his daughter Joie is learning alongside him as his apprentice. Together, we handcraft boxing gloves in New York, restore baseball gloves, and supply the leather lace and materials other restorers rely on.
