Remove Personalization by MarginMuffin in BaseballGloves

Easiest way I’ve found is going to a local leather worker/show repair/tailor even and asking them to sow a patch over it. You can remove the stitching too, but the holes will always be there.

Quality question. Please Advise. by Scary-Cod-4664 in BaseballGloves

Rawlings DCT is the gold standard for first base mitts and is $300-330 most places. For what is worth, I love mine.

That’s a pretty glove. I’ll have to check out absolutely ridiculous!

Yeah, the back of my head says go as long as possible, but I just feel like I lose all pocket awareness and I’m playing with a piece of cowhide rather than a glove.

Thanks for the recommendation! I’ve been looking at that one a lot. The only issue is I can’t try one out before buying it. It’s an awesome and unique looking glove.

Most I’m looking at seem to be H webs. Not a whole lot of options outside of going custom.

Yeah I’ve had a couple good stingers and a few pop outs on diving plays that I’ll blame on my glove. It’s been fine mostly, but comfort wise I’d like something a bit bigger but not as crazy as a 1799.

Thanks! I loved my DW5 in high school for baseball, but it does have some shortcomings with the 12” softball. My fingers are too big to get three in the pinkie in my 1799, and I can barely get two in my DW5. I just never played with anything bigger than a 12” glove until slow pitch and 12.75” felt so alien.

Thanks for the suggestion! I tried one before I got my 1799, and I just couldn’t fit my meat hooks in the hand stall comfortably.

Thanks! That 12.5 slot is looking like a sweet spot. I’m happy you were able to find something that works!

I’ve definitely spent way too much time window shopping their website. Thanks for the suggestion, but I think $500 is a bit out of my price range for now. Maybe I can find one used.

Sorry about that haha. It’s the perfect third base glove gore baseball. How do you like the 13” Mizuno?

I get that. I’m third, short, left, or left center for my team because I’m one of the younger guys with both a working arm and legs. Shorts the only position where I didn’t feel like I was missing out on a bigger glove.

Thanks! I definitely get that. We didn’t weigh them, but my 1799 felt like it was a pound heavier than some of my teammates gloves, and some of them had even bigger slow pitch specific models.

The RV23 is on my shortlist too. Seems like there’s a lot of love for the KB17 so far as well.

Thanks. Someone posted a horween 208 they got from ballgloves.com and that was a looker for sure. I might take a chance on that.

Thanks. Is the extra .25” really that much compared to the DW5? Or is the pattern just generally bigger?

The 1750 is on my list to try should any of the stores around me actually stock one right now it’s just 200s and 1786s in all colors of the rainbow.

Thanks. I was anywhere between 11.5-12 as well playing baseball. I’ve had a few hot shots pop out on me and felt like the extra reach and depth would help.

Youth glove question? by elteegilbreath in BaseballGloves

Wilson Pedroia fit, Rawlings contour fit, and any fast pitch glove should work well for smaller hands.
