Interesting about you "growing up in a leather factory", Mike, since my biggest hobby- next to playing, coaching and umpiring- is collecting vintage and antique baseball gloves.
From what "bkbjones" wrote, and knowing a little bit about the glovemaking process, I took it that he meant "dies" instead of "dyes".
Re-read his sentence with "die" inserted and it makes perfect sense in relation to a baseball glove's size.
