I used a simple shadow box from Hobby Lobby. Usually have pretty good deals there. Also just a tiny piece of two sided tape on the back of the gloves to keep them in place.

This is the type of case I use for my gloves. This is not my auction, but just the type of case. I like the way it looks and it protects the gloves.

Finally got my batting gloves in a shadow box. I started off using the double sided tape and it didn't work very well. It literally cleaned the dirt off the glove when it was removed. I went to Hobby Lobby and got some pins in the sewing section. The pins I used were 250 Super-Fine Sharp Pins Size 20-1 1/4" from Dritz. They worked awesome. Could not see them what so ever. The thinner pins were easier to get through the glove, since it has some rubber to it. I tried T-pins (what I had before buying more) but the gauge was too thick.

what size shadow boxes did you use for your displays? I have two pairs I want to display but unsure what size shadow box I should get, both pairs are XL gloves.

Don't pins ruin the gloves?

Here is my Junior gloves. Used a shadowbox from a company you send them the size and color. Can't remember the company. An art teacher cut the matting. Turned out great!

What would you use? Tape takes the dirt off and every framer I talked to said that they would sew them to the mat board. Also the framer suggested pins.

Take the gloves to the hobby store and compare. Easiest way to do it.

I would use the batting glove cases recommended earlier in the thread. If those seem too cheap for you, just lay them in a display case. I have my Bagwell gloves just sitting there and no damage comes to them. Plus, it's nice to just look at them in a display case. Here you can see my Bagwell display case below, which is where I keep my Bagwell game-used items.
