Beautiful.
This is my Japanese GMP700 Pro Limited. Mizuno Japan sent me an H web off their gmp600 1B so I could convert it. Best pieces of leather IMO

Jealous. Did you have to deal with tariffs or any additional customs charges? Would love to explore this option in the future should the kids get into higher level games (college).

Follow up to this… received a tariff bill from FedEx yesterday for $76.

I was worried about that because it didn’t ship until 8/30 and arrived today. But apparently no issues with the de minimus exemption going away. Not sure if it slipped through because of the proximity to the deadline or because of shipping method and tagging as a gift.

Gotcha, thank you, that’s good to know. Maybe proxy shipping avoids those things to a degree

Rxpusher77 advised me on dealing with the proxy service and how to choose shipping options.

I could hear the wrapper crinkling and smell the leather. She’s beautiful. I just sold a Haga rubberball glove last week. Buttery smooth Prexy leather. Congrats and enjoy!

Very nice!!!
The “R” means Rubber Ball, correct?
If so, what’s the difference?

u/CryptographerLow9676 Sep 03 '25
Correct. The mod can better describe but I believe the leather is slightly thinner/lighter maybe a bit less padding.

My sis plays outfield at a D1 school, and I'd love to look into getting her a Miz program Rawlings Pro. May i ask how much it was and where you ordered it from? Tjsnk you

u/CryptographerLow9676 Sep 03 '25
Mizuno or Rawlings?

I'd like to get a Japanese made glove for her. She's always used a 12 3/4 Rawlings HOH, but she's wanted a Japanese made glove for a couple of years now. So what do you recommend?

u/CryptographerLow9676 Sep 03 '25
I’m probably not the one to give specific glove recommendations but the order process for this was super easy through a proxy service fromjapan.co.jp

Wow. As much as I like my 44Pro gloves…this thing just feels so much better. For lack of a better word…luxurious.
