I bought a Rawlings GG series for my DD and it has really been a nice glove so far. I kept an eye out and Dicks dropped the price to $90 for like 2 weeks from $140 so got what I feel is the best glove for the money I could have gotten. She was 12 at the time so I wasn't ready to go the A2000 price range yet not due to her commitment but wanted to make sure she would take good care of the glove. Next glove will be the top end. Personally, I can recommend this glove especially for the money, break in time and it is holding up well. She plays ALOT of softball too. Great "step up" glove.
Nokona, Vinci or A2000 - help me decide

DD's wrist strap broke on her A2000 back in the Spring at the first high school practice. Picked her up a Vinci BV1929. Great utility glove. Little intimidating for her at first but now that it's broken in she loves it. Top quality glove. Picked it up from Casedawg. Real knowledgeable guy when it comes to gloves. Customized, conditioned, and delivered...great deal and great service!

I like all the gloves you mentioned. DD is using a $100 rawlings gamer. Its one of those fast break in gloves. She has gotten +2 years of good service but its getting a little floppy. If you need a game ready glove now and will be ready to buy new in two years I'd go with a rawlings gamer.
Im running a worth toxic lite for my beer league, it replaced my rawlings HOH. Love the worth. Its a fast break in too and yes after two years its getting floppy.
I like the nokona baseball gloves. The $300 softball model I was looking at for DD didnt seem like it was put together as well as the baseball models And Iits more expensive.
DD next glove will either be a nokona baseball glove with the pocket widened or most likely an A2000. I used an A2000 in HS and loved it. Cant go wrong with an A2000.

Both my DD's are using A2000 for the two seasons with no issues.

my 18 year old dd has had all three. Not even close. Vinci. Best glove out there for the money that i have seen.
I've never seen a broken down and worthless vinci.... they run a half size small.....
