Backstory:
I picked this unidentified Wilson mitt up at a flea market for $8. Always wanted to do yellow or gold lace, but never wanted to invest the $30+ in it. Seen some interest in paracord lacing on FB and thought I'd give that a try. Keep in mind this is a back up mitt for youth players. Found 50 FEET of paracord on Amazon for $5.99 with free shipping.
Lacing with paracord is especially easy as you dont have to worry about which side is up, but cutting/melting/threading the end can be tedious. The paracord added some stiffness back to the mitt, can be pulled tight, and tackles tough patterns easily.
IMO, this would be a good option for entry level youth gloves for kids who love matching their team colors but who don't want to spend $40-50 for a relace when their glove cost about the same. All-in-all a fun and rewarding color change for this tired mitt.
(Oh, and a palm liner added to reshape a badly creased pocket)
