So Wilson will discount their Sierra Romero a2000 glove, since she is no longer with wilson.

It’s Wilson........I doubt it, at least not until next years lineup comes out. I do like that glove though. It was either gonna be let my DD build a 44 or just buy her that A2000 since it also matches her school colors.

Are you looking for baseball gloves or softball gloves? If softball, have you looked into the Tigress gloves? They only make softball gloves and from what I’ve seen, have really been super focused on making sure the quality of the glove is top notch above anything else.
Anything cool and with 12" - 12 3/4" range.
If some catches my DD's eye or mine I'll keep or give one to her. My kid uses baseball gloves but we're not opposed to a great glove no matter the designation.

I don't think you've ever said what size glove and pattern you're after (infield or outfield)? I did see that you ordered a 12" Rico. Just one suggestion........do you like old school tan gloves, or are you more into colored gloves like that Rico for all of these new glove purchases?

Instead of shopping for gloves all across the World, have you looked at any of the Don Morton exclusives? It's like ordering a custom for less money, and having it in your hands in 2 days instead of 5/6 weeks! They're fantastic gloves!

Here's a link to their exclusives page. Since you ordered a 12" Rico, I've gotta recommend a Pro1000, it would have been cheaper than that Rico and NO comparison in quality!!!

I like both of these. But I'm trying to do the custom challenge in this thread. I like black and these traditional colored gloves (what I liked when I was younger) never had nice top end stuff. Ever. I'm trying some different color combos to see how accurate glove builder's I'm utilizing are.

I'd think if I end up selling any of these I'll stretch the color spectrum a little. It's a out the consumer. :)

Recap

RICO Gloves - 12.50"
February 5th sent payment of 299.99 via PayPal.
Nothing but the PayPal receipt was sent to me.

PRO 44 Gloves-12"

Received PayPal receipt and an invoice showing my complete glove build, glove ID (w/33 custom choices picked used to build the glove).

Bradley Gloves - 12.50"
February 11th sent payment of 257.00 via PayPal.
Pro Glove, 15 different custom choices picked.
Glove Builder is easy lots of choices just not super clear color contrasts. Seemed like a filter was changing the color to extra satin (muted)

Zett Gloves- 12.75"
February 11th sent payment of 374.99 via PayPal.
Custom glove. No build info emailed just the PayPal receipt. Can't remember all the details.
Black glove, red stitching, tan lace. The glove generator was a little limited on color selections.
Can't get to crazy here but plenty of sizes and webs to choose from. Check the boxes and drop downs. No screen shot on this glove just the logo I selected.
