The Rawlings PROTB24, often called the “Trapeze Black 24,” is one of the most iconic Heart of the Hide gloves ever produced, thanks in large part to its association with baseball legend Ken Griffey Jr., who famously wore number 24. Built from premium full-grain Rawlings steerhide leather with a deer-tanned cowhide palm, the PROTB24 was designed for serious outfield play. Its 12.75-inch size, Fastback style, and signature Trap-Eze web create the distinctive “six-finger” look that made it instantly recognizable on Griffey’s hand. The Fastback design also includes Rawlings’ Holdster finger slot, giving players added control and protection. Beyond its technical excellence, the glove has become a cherished collector’s item—both for its craftsmanship and its connection to Griffey’s highlight-reel career. Enthusiasts still seek out original models, and many share stories of restoring their well-worn PROTB24s to game-ready condition. Now, with this remake available in stock, the legendary design and feel of the PROTB24 live on, preserving its status as a timeless symbol of style, performance, and baseball history.
