No, Deion Sanders did not wear baseball gloves while in football. I was the head of Accessory product Development at the time and he wore specially made football gloves. Most of the gloves made for Deion were "Tactified" and often had special embossing and or debossing on the leather. Much like his baseball gloves, we often used some very colorful leather and other materials to make the gloves very flashy and special for him.
Nomex gloves are not made for every day use. They are often used by the military. They are not designed to resist heat but will not melt against the body.
A dentist uses 950 to 1000 latex gloves a day.

najor league baseball players dont need to get new mitts evry month, because you have to break them in, my dad played major league baseball for 11 years as a catcher and he has about 10 game mitts. A Major league player will normally order 2 gloves per season but only use the one game glove and have the other as a backup. Gold Glover Shane Victorino says he has worn the same glove past two seasons because of superstition
Mittens are warmer than gloves on a cold day because they keep your fingers together, allowing them to share body heat and keep each other warm. Gloves, on the other hand, separate your fingers, making it harder for them to stay warm.
Because back in the day people made them up and then TV shows were made about them
They don't. Baseball uniforms and all accessories are the expense of the team. Some exceptions may be an endorsement contract a player may have with gloves, batting gloves and shoes which are given to the player from the company.
They both back in the day made pottery.
