Buying a new glove for DD. Need suggestions.

Bought my DD (12U) a new Cat Osterman Wilson A2000 closeout in June for $199. They are hard to find because it is an older model, but we both love it! It has a smaller hand well that is perfect for her small hand, and most all the lacing knots have been purposely removed from the back of the fingers so that they do not rub her leg when pitching. Pretty thoughtful feature, IMO (even though my DD doesn't slap her glove on her leg when pitching --- never understood why some pitchers do that, BTW). It has held up very well thus far, and the leather quality is superb (as is the case with most high-end gloves). It is a little heavy, but no complaints otherwise. Took quite a bit of break-in, but it was worth it, IMO. Might be wishful thinking, but hoping it will last her through high school/18U.

DD got a Rawlings Liberty Advanced and loves it. When she finally wore out my HS Wilson glove we got her a LS Xeno glove but it got floppy really fast. She is primarily a catcher but plays some first and third so she needed a fielders glove...

I think I have decided on the Vinci BV1929-L. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Way to go mom. Vinci BV1929-L was under the xmas tree for my DD last year too. She is a pitcher and went through an intense travel ball season with it this spring. She LOVES IT!
