Very nice glove for the price. The dual core did break in much easier than typical Heart of the Hide models. Stayed away from the oil and just caught with it. Plays a little smaller than its size, and is good for middle infield although I use as a pitcher’s glove because of closed pocket and plain color. (Umps don’t like pitching gloves with too much light color or flash). Classic style goes with any uniform. Quality leather throughout. Should last for many seasons.It is a beautiful glove well worth the cost. It was a little smaller than needed so I’m ordering a larger glove and giving this one to his younger brother!!I was very surprised with the quality of this gloves. The softness of the leather puts this glove in a league of it's own. It molded to my hand in no time. I play baseball for Georgetown and my teammates were also very impressed with this glove !The quality of the glove is great. The size does not fit the description (11.5, but more like 11.25). The break-in process is good.Purchased for my son as a gift, he hasn't used it yet. It came sooner than expected, and initial inspection of product checks out as it should.Glove arrived in perfect condition. The break in time is less than expected using glove butter and leather conditioner. All knots in the glove webbing are solid with extra leather for future adjustments. The "I" series pocket is great for middle infielders and 3B.Stiff at first but is breaking in nicely. I would buy this glove again.Great leather! Got to take the time to break it in properly.Excellent catching mitt, and around £80 cheaper than I could get from UK outlets.Excelente guante de primera... la calidad resalta a la vista, es comodo, facil moldear y el tipo de piel no tiene comparacion sin duda este guante es de gama premium, amazon mx lo tenia muy barato era algo a lo que no me pude resistir inclusive 100 dlls menos que en la misma pagina del fabricante yo no se como amazon lo logra pero gracias a eso siempre son mi primer opcion para cualquier cosa, buen precio, calidad y el envio ni se diga... ahora usare un guante de excelente calidad por muchos años nuevamente GRACIAS amazon mx.Es PerfectaAll good!!!
