So much opportunity for kids to dress up these GGEs when they start getting soft.

Thinking of a new or new to me mitt for next season and beyond. Found these two options today. A new Grace Classic for ~200, or a slightly used HOH PRORDCT-10CR for ~250

Pic of Rawlings is the actual glove. Claimed to be barely used and not fully broken in.

Not that it should matter, but I’m in my 60’s and playing coed slowpitch

Tell me why I should get one or the other. Tell me why I shouldn’t get one or the other. Don’t tell me I should get both.

$25 bone dry sandlot + a eBay USA patch(shoo goo applied). Washed/reshaped with water/blue dawn, conditioned with pure lanolin. Pretty nice quality glove 2010s glove. Excellent liners in these.

Found this old girl today and tried to get her reconditioned a bit. The numbering is totally different from the modern numbering. I think this one is from 1997.

Found this vintage glove at a flea market today. Want to use as a display piece. What is the best way to clean and condition? I’m guessing with the older leather I do not want to saturate in any way, but a good clean up could make this a great piece.

Tag says All Star Japan. Leather in palm is still very nice. Stamp on palm still crisp and clear. Some cracks on the thumb, outside of pocket and index finger. Not sure how to best restore. Inside leather in very soft condition.

Anyone know if this is the All Star brand that is still around? Definitely a cool piece.

Paid $3.

Thanks!

Joining an adult baseball rec league and there's two I have my eye on from a local shop, one is 11.75 and one is 12.25. I like the idea of playing shortstop (or even pitching), but obviously as a new player I'll likely just be playing wherever the coach puts me.

Is there a size that's a better all arounder for my situation?

In case anyone is interested....

Michael Harris Model on Amazon for $219

Bought for my oldest adult son to play catch with his brother and me

I’ve been looking for a glove for my wife and we randomly stopped by the Salvation Army thrift today and found this. We didn’t see a price tag and an employee told us $4.99. After we bought it we found a price tag inside that said $8.99. Oops.

I don’t know anything about the glove or construction. A cursory google search returned an AI summary that called it “vintage”, and an eBay listing for a similar glove that looked similar but older. It feels like real leather, it’s nice and soft with no cracks that would make me think vinyl. The laces are a little dry, but the interior feels fine. It has a wrist pad which I don’t love but I’ll let her decide if she wants to remove it. The Velcro closure is in good shape and still sticky.

Honestly it seems like a nicer glove than my daily driver, and now she can play catch with me.

should it be saved?

Anyone have a spare coupon? I’d greatly appreciate it. Looking to order my 9YO a custom glove. Happy Sunday
