Pros: high quality leather, great workmanship, breaks in perfectly (mine was made in Japan, the new models are made in Vietnam). I bought this model for a 10-year-old and his level of play has significantly improved beyond the cheap, foam-lined glove he was using.

Cons: none

smooth

Pros: if there was a higher rating this glove would have it. I have the A2k a2000 and a rawlings pro prefered none come close to this one. small pocket makes the ball getting in and out smooth and wouldn't have it anyother way. if your a middle infielder you should have this glove it will make you look like a superstar

How does this glove to the rawlings pro preferred of the same size? chops

Both will be high quality gloves. The leather used in the Pro Preferred series may be of a slightly higher quality making it a little more durable. Both will fit and weigh about the same.

John

how do i prevent a bulging palm crease ?bc i have one and whenever i catch a ball it pops up again shortstoper

A common way to prevent creases, wrinkles or bulges in the palm is to always put a couple of baseballs in the pocket of the glove and wrap it with some rubberbands when it is not in use. This will help the glove form a defined pocket and helps with those annoying creases in the palm.

Sean

How does it compare to the Nokona Bloodline Series? Utility

Quality of the leathers used in both will be very similar to each other, although I may give the Bloodline a slight edge. The 1788BG is a high quality glove though with great durability. The 1788BG will have a bit more padding than the Bloodline.

how long does it take to break in BY

This glove should take a little less than a week to break in. Once the glove is broken on, it will be ready for game use.
