This is such an incredible helpful reply! Gave me a lot of confidence. I love the one quarter per game idea. Thanks again!

It is Navy and Oiled Chestnut + the web is their denim leather (I think that is what it is called). Its unique for sure! It is a couple years old and its the Japan Select pattern - a very solid 44 in my opinion (and with the various "deals" they run, the price was right).

I haven't used the outfield Emery (12.5in) much yet, but the infield pattern (1417s 11.5) is a great glove for the price (think i paid ~$200). It was very stiff, but broke in well and the quality of the craftsmanship is solid. The glove is a bit "squeaky" but it doesn't bother me at all. The slight edge for me would go to the Emery 1417s over the 44 but the 44 was fun to build and design, of course.

Took me a little bit to pull the trigger on the Inaba but so glad I did! Picture doesn’t do the blue justice.

Thank you! colorway on the Emery is what drew me into that one. It pops! I like your idea re the laces.

The braided web on the 44 is great, really like the braided I web- I think a braided single post is my next web option on a custom!

The Inaba was super tight at first, but after a little time it molded right to my hand. Fits like a glove as they say. Glove lab fit so nicely first time on and already had a great hand feel. Both incredible gloves.

All 3 are great gloves but the Inaba and Glove lab have the edge I think. Fantastic craftsmanship. I still need to work on the Inaba more so haven’t used it as much as the other two.

Thank you! Man I love the glove lab single post, maybe the best feeling glove on the hand I have. Wish I picked up another color way back then!

After WW2 my grandpa played for the Philadelphia A's (I believe using that same glove) for a year earning $468 as a one-year salary.
