    Got this for Christmas and absolutely love it! I've been breaking it in at the indoor baseball facility near my house using the pitching machine and it is almost ready to use. Our season starts at the end of April. By the end of March, I'll have this fully broken in and ready to go! Rawlings Heart of The Hide Horween Leather Gloves are the best in the game!

    The quality and design of this glove is fantastic, horween leather is good and stiff like an infield glove should be, just ideal, so happy. Haven't seen a glove this good in 25 years.
