Did you mock up a baseball or softball glove? A true HOH baseball glove on the builder is Japanese Tanned leather (Jtan), great leather, just not Horween! ;)

It was softball. It's a bit hard for me to go with baseball - just a mental block more than anything.

You can get a 12" Tan Horween Pro12TC Six-finger trap from Morton's, but I already have one of those! It's the coolest Dad glove ever!

I will spend wildly on my kids, but am pretty frugal on spending for myself. I have a catcher's glove and use that for everything I do softball.

Between this and the Horweeny quip I am not sure if @ANNASDAD is going to be able to be your friend.. :ROFLMAO:

As a point of reference, Marcela has always used a baseball glove (12" new glove and game Pro 206, 11.75" before that) 🤷‍♂️
Never had any issues.

My DD's current glove is a baseball model. A Mizuno that Anna's Dad pointed me to. It's been a great glove. So I've already gone that route - kind of silly I'm still gun shy.

When trying to customize a HOH baseball glove, I can't seem to get a 12" with the smaller hand stall. Perhaps it's user error.

You can relace the Rawlings baseball gloves to a smaller hand stall then the default. I have done it for both Rawlings she has had and I am far from "handy"..

Anna’s had one “softball“ glove in her life, a 12” Louisville Slugger Valkyrie, man that thing was paper thin! Haven’t thought about that glove in years, looking back now I’m pretty embarrassed for myself!

Nothing but baseball gloves from 11 on up.

Wonder where @CoreSoftball20 is? He'll put a quick stop to all this glove talk! :oops:
Absolutely not...this is a glove thread kinda. Even though every single one of your gloves look the
same, im ok with an old timer rambling on about them and how people should enjoy
taking 3 years to break in a new glove :)
Im all about doing what makes people happy as long as it doesnt hurt others...if you have a leather fetish...hey,
be you buddy ;)

And btw, I enjoy reading thru glove threads...i may skip a couple posts, but I do scan over them...sometimes
entertainment value in glove threads is a bit lacking for me to read every post :)
