I was being serious because I knew that was your take on the matter. My girls have always used softball-specific gloves and mitts, but if it's a viable option to use baseball ones, why not? There are so many more available.
Why must I resort to custom glove builder just to get a simple black glove?

Not sponsored. DD2 is brand loyal... I was able to get DD1 switched to Rawlings, but I am not winning that battle with DD2. Was looking for the Proselect Fastpitch 12.5 which seems to only come in Grey and White (OH, I just noticed the welting on this is metallic!!!! Just when you think it could not be any uglier...). She is primarily a Pitcher/OF. Anyway, don't search the interwebs on my account, I already went custom.
Interestingly, the 12" comes in Black with White welting, which is better than grey, but still not satisfactory IMHO. Their cheaper line, MVP prime does come in Black on black. Maybe they are pushing people towards custom in high end models by making the OTC lineup ugly?

Just went on their custom builder to mock up a 12.5" Pro-Select FP glove, man their options are very limited, not that great!

Maybe if you unclicked the “Absolutely need a Velcro wrist strap” button you would have more options..
I never got that far, couldn't get past the no split welting option!
Ahem, I believe you called me a troublemaker a few comments back. "Hello, Pot? This is the Kettle..."

I was the kid who would throw rocks at the hornet's nest from afar while my buddies were underneath it. They'd consult me to write the curriculum if they offered a class on busting chops in college.I mean it is just assumed that I am a shi*-stirrer..half the members have me on ignore.

Yeah, luckily, Black on Black is within their capabilities. Rawlings has a far superior glove builder. I did opt for colored laces, but I figure if she don't like it, we can always get it re-laced.
Can’t do total Darth Vader, but that’s just me.
Now Black with gray split welting, Tan laces, maybe Tan binding (?), and either Ivory, Beige, or Vegas Gold stitching, yeah that’s fire!!
Or, plain ole boring Tan Horween for the win!
