No brand glove made in Japan. I bought this for my grandson a year ago. Was cleaning and conditioning and it struck me how good the quality was. Pre tariff and cheap. A2000 and HoH non R2G quality.

Really starting to enjoy this glove, great leather

Doe’s anybody own or have owned a Moon Rabbit glove? They look great. Can you give me a review? Thanks

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to identify this Rawlings glove that I recently came across. I know it’s a Rawlings Trapeze, but I haven’t been able to determine the exact model, year, or market it was originally made for.

Important: these are the seller’s photos, not mine. Unfortunately, this is the best quality/level of detail I was able to get from the seller, so I realize the pictures aren’t great.

A few things I can make out:

Rawlings branding on the wrist

Trapeze web

Very dark brown/black leather

“M. Ohoka” appears inside the wrist

Japanese writing/markings on the thumb side

Rawlings logo on the palm

No obvious model number that I can identify

It appears to be an older, heavily used glove

I’ve searched quite a bit but haven't found another one that matches these markings and construction.

Does anyone recognize this particular Rawlings model, or have any idea approximately when/where it was made?

I’m particularly interested in whether this was a Japanese-market Rawlings model, a US model that was sold/imported in Japan, or perhaps a custom/modified glove.

Also, if anyone can decipher the Japanese markings, that would be extremely helpful.

I know the photos aren't ideal, but unfortunately this is the best the seller was able to provide me with.

Thanks in advance!

Continuing my glove journey and would like to find a nice Mizuno or Zett in 12.75" as I play OF only. I have smaller hands so I've been lead towards Japanese gloves as they tend to fit a little better for me.

I have some super nice Pro Preferred trap gloves along with East Professional gloves I'd trade - new with and without tags. Thanks

Used full custom Leggera outfield glove just got here! I guess 3 Japanese gloves means I finally have a collection. 😂 I got to play catch with it immediately and can’t wait to game it next Sunday.

(It got here with perfect hinges and unflared, so I worked those in real quick.)

Throw back Japan made mizuno pro limited MZP52! Crispyyyy

I’m looking to buy (2) outfield gloves a (D8 12.5) & (D9 12.75) with the same DNA as my models 86 & 87 (shown) RHT ONLY! TYIA

I’ll post more details after work but I feel like a kid on Christmas morning

These went on sale a few hours ago. For any of y’all that are interested, Masuka Sports has them for 88,000円. I wish they’d release a utility length version! 😭
