Pros: BEST GLOVE EVER! I couldn't believe I spent $400 on a glove. But once I got it I knew it was worth every dollar. It offers the best comfort than any other glove I've had, the cushion in the palm works like a wonder. Easy break in. I love how all the laces are 3 inches in length after being tied

BP catcher
Pros: Well designed and made, great craftsmanship.
Cons: Too heavy, too much oil. Not as good as HOH or Pro Preferred or Mizuno Pro Limited.
MMgaj7
Pros: The Rawlings PRIMO is everything that it is cracked up to be. I recieved mine recently and was astonished by the amazing degree of craftsmanship. The shell leather feels like the old school Horween leather and the inner calfskin is as smooth and supple as butter.
Cons: I really hate to get this work of art dirty...
JTBASEBALL
Pros: Glove as advertised.I bought it to replace my first pro glove (original Wilson Conform purchased in 1996) The Primo matches that glove in weight and quality. Italian leather is absolutely top-notch!
Cons: Nothing really. The Primo is slightly thinner than I expected it to be, but it is because of the Italian leather. Do not let this bother you, because it still carries weight and quality of a pro glove!
txslonghornsbaby

Sox072
Pros: Great feel, easy break in. Best glove on the market. I am a shortstop and pitcher (and catcher) on my high school team and a competitive travel team, and it's perfect. I also own an A2K 11.25 in., an A3000 11.5, an A2000 11.5, (and catcher's mitts). This is my 1st rawlings glove and i love it.
Cons: I'm doing a lot more catching now, so I can't use it as much. I wish I could use it to catch
iLUVraking27
Pros: nice leather. cool design. fits nice on your hand.

Jeter Sucks
Pros: Good Leather, Good Feel, Durable Web
Cons: WAY TO HEAVY, if it was lighter give it a five
Anonymous
Pros: Great glove for collector
Cons: Nice Italian leather with the "made in Taiwan tag on the glove when you get it. Feels great on your hand at first but does to mold to your hand. Takes shape of its own when broken in and becomes very loose and floppy. Stick with the HOH it will last longer with better results for half the price.
Anonymous
Pros: best glove ever.easy to break in and much better then a2k
Cons: none
oaktown fan
Pros: Best glove ever! Man if you think this glove is heavy, you need to lift some weights. I was able to play catch with it the day i got it.I play Pitcher, shortstop and third base, so this glove is perfect.
Cons: I hate to get a piece of art dirty.
N.Thevenot
Pros: BEST GLOVE EVER! broke it in in one day. awesom glove
Cons: love the way it feels to catch a ground ball
C.A.C
Pros: Amazing feel to the glove, best thing youll ever put on your hand, i just got it today but i can tell its going to keep its shape.

Live To Pitch
Pros: Durability, Comfort, Color, Craftsmanship. The last rawlings I had was an HotH back in the early 90's... WOW they've come a long way. Beautiful glove!
Cons: Everyone will shove their hand in it violently : (
Royse
Pros: Absolutely incredible. Great quality and amazing craftsmanship. Glove broke in for me in about a day. No tricks, just a bit of glove oil (Nokona) and playing catch.
Cons: Expensive, but every time I put the glove on the price doesn't seem too bad ;)
Adam
Pros: 1 word..AMAZING comfortable, protective, easy to move around and keeps its pocket. I broke it in in about 3 weeks and it's kept its pocket for over a year. And trust me- it's not too heavy..if you think it is, you need to lift some weights if a baseball glove hurts your arm....
Cons: the primo doesn't know what cons are.
Steven
Pros: Great glove, little heavier than most but not much. Broke in perfectly and is definately worth the money. I would highly recommend a primo. Im a collegiate player and have had many gloves, and this is by far the best glove i've ever had. Not only does it provide good performance, but the looks of this glove are great as well
Cons:
Loopy Anderson
Pros: As a college head coach I recommend this glove to all of my infielder's looking for a new glove. Rawlings is the best glove maker hands down.
Cons: None at all a perfect glove.
Pitching beast
Pros: Great quality of leather.Once you get it broken in, this is the best infielders glove for people serious about baseball.If you arent afraid to spend 400$ on this masterpiece... you are going to make the right decicion by buying it... Defintely in the top 5 gloves on the market..
Cons: None...... this glove is perfect!
jl0ew19
Pros: this glove is an extention of your hand. the great thing about it is that the leather in the palm and the leather on the outer hand is incredibly soft, while the layer that is hidden on the inside is rock hard which makes it incredibly durable and gives the glove a great feal. i just recieved my glove today and it has already formed to my hand and i can effortlessly catch a ball already and it is not broken in at all. also what seemed to make a difference was putting one spray of rawlings glovolium in the palm. thats it. is makes it slightly firmer so it shapes eeasier unlike the glove buter which makes it very soft. the color and overall look of the glove in amazing and the long laces just makes it better. it has an oldschool look and feel which turns heads. well worth the 400$. get it
Cons: everyone will want to try it on
Kevin
Pros: First of all, leather is ridiculously nice. So soft, when you get it you can tell that is definitley amazing as far as quality. My Nokona Bloodline got chewed up by a dog, It was a really really nice glove. However, this is the best I've ever had. Superior leather, feel, and fit. I've had it for barley three weeks and I've already used it in a game, it worked out just fine. If you are really in to baseball and you have the money, buy this glove, you wont regret it.
Cons: Nothing at ALL. Simply perfect.
glove_guru24
Pros: This is a great glove. Broke in over a months time after being pounded numerous times at the breakpoints with a 5 lb weight. I lightly oiled it with the Wilson pro stock conditioner and it makes the leather smell amazing and not scratch as easily. It's a beautiful glove that I will have for the rest of my life and Im 16. The quality of the material is amazing and I would Definetly recommend this glove to a serious player. Got heeeeeem -Brian Wilson
Cons:
@Danny14CB
Pros: quick break in time, smooth tough leather, and looks just great. And to clear things up, this glove is heavier than most gloves but it's definitely not too heavy.. Get this glove!!
Cons: Cost may be a bit much but how much you pay for it is how much you get out. No cons for this glove.
A-rod
Pros: I have played in the majors for many years i prefer this glove to anyone!!!
Cons:
Wilford B.
Pros: There is a 100 day guarantee.
Cons: I have had this glove for about 4 months and still feels the same as when I got it. It is heavy and sweaty and the ball pops out of the pocket almost every single time. I am really not impressed and I think that Rawlings has really cheated themselves with this glove.
shortstopsssssss
Pros: great glove best glove ever. I've owned many gloves and this is the top of the line and the leather is way better than any other.
Cons: stays very stiff for a while which is kinda a good thing but very hard to break in. takes time to break in more than other gloves I've owned
Quickling
Pros: NONE….
Cons: It's way to heavy and is WAY overpriced

Anonymous
Pros:
Cons: My son can't even close the glove. Glove will not break in waste of money!!!!
Matt
Pros: Great glove! Really good quality, however, it is a little tough to break in but worth it once you do it.
Cons: None.
jwoody
Pros: this is amazing. PERIOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cons: ZERO CONS.
DJ
Pros: I want this glove as much as I want to move out. But the question is, Is this glove worth $400? Because if it is, I'm saving up and buying this glove.
Cons:
deerslayer18769
Pros: This glove is great for a lot of different positions and if the weight is worrying you, it is no different than a Dual Core Heart of the Hide. The padding is like no other glove. There is a reason it's $400.00.
Cons: Nothing that comes to mind.
Willie
Pros: High quality laces.
Cons: It's heavy, not meant for infield, too much padding so you can't really feel the ball well, takes a while to break-in (which every high quality glove is like but this is just rediculous). It is meant for a show glove, not and infield/pitcher glove.
deerslayer1996
Pros: This glove is the best of the best and is no more heavier than a heart of the hide dual core but the leather is what makes this glove unique so it will last you a long time.
Cons: there shouldn't even be a cons entry for this glove.
Jason
Pros: Hands down, nicest glove money can buy. The moment you feel this glove you can tell how good of quality it is. If you take the time and break-in the pocket it will last you year after year. I like the oxblood color that gives it a classic look.
Cons: None to speak of.
Glove Love
Pros: Very Stiff! Great for players that think of fielding as a huge part of the game. This glove makes you take the ground ball, bettering you as a fielder. You must LOVE THIS GLOVE,and break it in the old fashioned way
Cons: Mostly nothing, break in period is a little long, but the finished product is amazing.
LDP
Pros: This glove is as advertised. It fits my grandson (high school player)perfectly and will make him a better fielder. It is the glove I wish I could have had back in the dark ages when I was a teenager
Cons: It has taken a little longer than expected to break in. It, however, improves daily and as good as it was out of the box, it will obviously become much better.
Pickle
Pros: Looks awesome Good colours Rawlings Open back Infielders
Cons: Price
Tommyd22
Pros: Great quality leather, comfortable, stiff, but eventually molds to hand with a lot of effort. However, the break in time is well worth the wait as this glove is obviously one of the best gloves and finest assembled gloves on the market.
Cons: Long break in time, stiff, dries out rather quickly if you do not condition the glove every 3 months.

I recently purchased the PRM1125 in the summer and now we are starting to practice for baseball. I need to break the glove in. When I purchased I wanted to break it in naturally, simply by playing catch. But that process is taking too long and my Wilson A2000 is beat. I need my Primo broken in. I looked up reviews on the Primo glove butter and it says it brings the glove back to life after aging. But nothing about it says anything about helping break-in the Primo. I saw a review on Firstbasecoach.com and they said they don't recommend I use it on a new glove. I need my Primo broken in and I don't want to break down the leather and ruin it, since it's a $400 glove. I need help. joshtheslugger
About the Brand
Rawlings is a major manufacturer of competitive team sports equipment and apparel for baseball, basketball, and football, as well as licensed MLB, NFL, and NCAA retail products. Rawlings is a major supplier to professional, collegiate, interscholastic, and amateur organizations worldwide, including the Official Baseball Supplier to Major League Baseball.
The first real innovation in glove making occurred in 1912 when Rawlings Sporting Goods Company introduced the "Sure Catch" glove, which was "endorsed by leading players all over the country." The Sure Catch was a one-piece glove with sewn-in finger channels and looked better suited for a duck's foot than a man's hand. Catchers' mitts used at the time were large and bulky with a single leather thong passing for a web.
In 1920, Bill Doak, a journeyman pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, approached Rawlings with an idea for improving the baseball glove from a mere protective device to a genuine aid in fielding. The "Bill Doak" model was so revolutionary that it stayed in Rawlings' line until 1953. Its key feature was a multi-thong web laced into the first finger and thumb, which created for the first time in baseball's young life, a natural pocket.
In 1925, Rawlings unveiled a three-fingered fielder's glove, and ten years later improved the Bill Doak model with a two-piece leather web. At the same time, the "T" web became a rage for first basemen's mitts. The pocket underwent a pronounced change in 1941 when the Trapper Mitt, also known as the Claw, appeared. The "Deep Well" pocket was so unique that Rawlings quickly patented it. The design was improved in 1950 by adding a leather piece across the top. Another significant creation occurred in 1948 with the three-fingered Playmaker. A five-fingered fielder's model, with all fingers laced together, provided greater pocket control.
The six-fingered Trap-Eze evolved in the 1960's. In more recent years, Rawlings produced the Fastback design, which gives a glove a snugger fit, greater extension, and overall control. The Holdster is a slot through which a finger can be extended for additional protection from impacts on the pocket. Then, there is the Edge-U-Cated Heel with its extended U-shaped lacing and the Pro H Web and much-copied Basket Web.
Some of Rawlings's more recent glove innovations also include the unique Spin-Stopper design which reduces ball spin when the ball hits the glove, and the Cantilever glove design feature that provides a cushioned area between the hand and the glove's palm area. In all, Rawlings has produced and patented more functionally innovative glove features and designs than that of any other glove manufacturer. The result is that the modern baseball glove is much larger, more comfortable, better padded, and made to last far longer than its ancestors. It is not uncommon to see today's Major League players wearing the same Rawlings glove they wore during their college playing days. In fact, Rawlings is the #1 glove in the major leagues. Rawlings maintains about 65 models of baseball and softball mitts and gloves in its line. The prototypes of virtually all of them have been field-tested by professionals before entering a sporting goods dealer's inventory.
