Pros: First-class materials and finish.
Tried-and-true classic design. This glove is way better on the field than I am. Confident that it will last for many, many seasons. Srsly professional grade. The only step up from this is a Nokuno.
An hour of hard "pass" and it was in its first game.
Cons: Its fit seems a tad looser than most, so make sure that your hand is comfortable in it in case it needs to go back. Definitely not game-ready from the factory, but that's not a bad thing.
Break it in, play hard, and take care of it.
Pros: After three weeks of use, I can see no negatives regarding its performance. It needed many days of catching a tennis ball thrown against a wall to break it in, but it's getting there. Everyone who's tried it agrees that it's a superstar on the field.
Cons: I'd prefer having it in a natural brown color, but I'm getting used to it. The colors make it a good target for throws in the infield.
Pros: Just thought of this - yesterday, during warm-up tosses, our shortstop started firing bullets which I caught right in the palm. He said, "that must have hurt." I did not exaggerate when I said that I could barely feel it.
