Cons: It was hard to break in. But now its terrific!
Pros: nothing that I can tell
Cons: Stiff, poor quality, simply sucks
Pros: This glove forms to your catching style and forms a good pocket while still being a tad stiff; which is what I prefer because it helps hold its shape.
Cons: Laces feel a little week/soft even with proper breaking-in conditioning techniques. I prefer 'two in the pinkie' because this pocket is super flat, so great for mid-infield, but I personally prefer a mid-deep pocket.
Pros:
Cons:
Pros: Feels amazing, great transfer.
Cons: Sometimes pops out at first, stiff.
Pros: I own almost every dual core gold glove and wanted to try this one out. It's been two weeks and glove is still very hard. I think it will be great but not for the money.
Cons: To expensive for what you get. Go dual core!!
Pros: Great glove!
Cons: Stiff at first.
Pros: This glove is great for pitchers and infielders. When you get the glove you really should tighten the laces on the fingers because it will keep the shape and pocket that you want so it won't get floppy. If you are a serious baseball player and willing to take the time and effort to break in this baseball glove then this baseball glove is meant for you.and I prefer this glove for a high school baseball player to a collage player....simply the best glove ever made
Cons: If you don't like great baseball gloves then it is not for you
Pros: Good leather, forms nicely to the hand, good pocket. Good looking glove.
Cons: Comes stiff and takes a while to break in. Gets really dry so I have to oil mine a lot. The inside of the glove got so dry that it ripped. Go heart of the hide dual core.
Pros: great glove, great leather, great pocket. my friend and i both have this glove and his ring finger was really tight when he first got it but mine was fine.
Cons: nada
Pros: great quality, butter smooth,very light, very stiff(expected),overal great glove
Cons: plays bigger
Pros: very nice glove high quality leather and laces and forms really well to your hand
Cons: Little stiff but every glove is stiff at first
Pros: GREAT GLOVE!!!! - leather is great - great pattern (I use it for pitching) - amazing lace in the web and fingers (super thick!) - pretty stiff, how I like it - forms just how you like it

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.
