Is this an all leather glove? I am curious about the weight. Aj
The Akadema Rookie 10.5'' and the Vinci Pro 10.5'' seem to be very similar. What is the difference that may lead you to choose one over the other? CW
When will you have more right hand throwers in stock? James
My son is playing shortstop in 7U coach pitch. He's currently using a 10.75" Mizuno Prospect Series. I'm looking for something that will be an improvement to his game over that. I've been looking at this one and the Vinci Pro Custom Pro Junior Series: BRV1957 Youth. I can't determine any significant differences other than the I-web and T-web designs and the $5 difference. Is there much of a difference in the two? Would one be better than the other for shortstop? Jim
Does this glove have a leather back or a mesh back? Look like in picture to have a leather back but have read its mesh. Flagg
