Just measured it, depending on where you keep the tape at the bottom of the heel.....I’m going with dead on 12.25”

The hand stall isn’t as big as you’d think for this particular glove, it’s not real tight, but not real big either.

And you’re right, not a retail model. This is 1 of 99 that Chad at SoftballFans had made, it’s a Horween SBF exclusive. This one is number 77.

The Pro504 is on the Rawlings builder as a custom, but not in Horween. You could order a custom in Jtan leather and have the wrist closure already laced at the narrow setting.

Reach out to @22Lefty, he’s got my first 504, not sure if his DD is using it, or if he is? He may have some valuable input for you.
Not personally in need. Just seen multiple posts recently looking for a Utility glove.

So your pro 504 12.5 measure the same size as your np 12.25 ht glove? Could you post a size by size with a sb in each of your pro 504 and np ht gloves. Thx

The 504 is just a tad longer than the NP7, to me the length is really a wash. But, the 504 is definitely wider! Actually if I remember correctly, a year or so back my 12” NP6 was wider at the fingertips than my 12.25” NP7.

My opinion, both this Horween NP7 and this Pro504 are too much glove for 90% of girls playing softball, they’re awesome Dad gloves, both were made for Men’s slow pitch. They’re really substantial gloves! It would take that big, strong girl to handle either one of these gloves!

Check the pinky stall. I bought a glove from Annasdad and found rolls fo tenths in there. Pretty sure thats where he hides money from his wife so he can buy handguns and leather...and gas for his muscle car.

The Horween Pro1000 is working well for me. TIP with a rounded heel. Its a steel trap. It makes a great pop sound when the ball smacks it. Neighbor came out to see what the loud noise was when the boy and I were playing catch.

Bought a lifetime supply of lanolin from Bezos for $12. Light coat and a polish when she needs it.

We were planning a trip to Myrtle this past weekend to watch Coastal Play. That got scrapped with attendance rules and the weather. I've been saving some scheckles to hit the Rawlings outlet in Myrtle for a HOH glove. Gonna have to wait a little longer.

That's a real ball glove right there!! Every glove lover should experience at least one in their life!
