No Tim, you and her both need several new gloves each..............you know once a glove reaches broken in status it’s time to get out your CC, It’s a fact!

ha, still breaking in DD1's limited custom - its getting there, she's at a point where she's falling in love and we haven't even really seen live ground balls with it yet - still have lots of work to do on DD2's catchers mitt, and the other night was the first time she didn't say 'this is still stiff' and started to say 'i really like this' - it was the first time she didn't ask for the fortus when our pitchers went live.....and drakemir just sent me a 12.5 limited utility glove that i need to go to work on as soon as it gets here, as my stud 8th grade catcher is ahead of her on our middle school team....so i am still in the weeds just a little here!


on a side note, our middle school league rivals will be a little freaked out when both of our catchers are tossing runners out from there knees, especially when they look at DD2, she's still tiny lol

This would be a closer example of what it would look like if we did something like this -



So - I will seriously put this out there - if I can get 7 then I make these gloves happen of them. ETA would be 4 weeks from order.

12.25" Glove
Open Back
Black Optimus leather on the palm
Tan Limited leather on the back
Tan laces
Dual welting - black
H web or I web.
Black Finger Guard - (not noted in the picture above)

Can also look at some other "tweaks" to the design.

This would make an amazing middle infield glove. Please send me a tell if you are interested in a price. If I get enough interest maybe we can make this happen. This would be an all or nothing type of thing, once I had 7 people in - I would collect payment and we would order. No money would be needed before we hit the number needed.

Oh sure, now you do this!! ;-) That's a sweet looking glove!

I'm really excited to get the Custom/Hybrid BV 1929 we just ordered...

Looks good Dave! Have you ever done a full Kip leather limited with the colors reversed like that NP7 I posted? All black shell back and palm, and a tan I-web and tan laces. And please NO finger pad, I like the one you just posted, I have one Vinci with a finger pad and really don’t like it.

none in that color that I can think of off the top of my head - but you never know. I did do a Tan + Red laces which looked really sharp.

I actually think that guys use the finger pad more than the girls - I have never seen a girl on my team use it.

So im open to suggestions lol -

Hi, I'm new to the forum and am in the market for a new glove for my DD (14U pitcher). Very interested in how this turns out. What is the estimated $ on the group buy? DD is using an old school A2000 (Circa 80's) made in Japan stamp that is falling apart from the inside out that needs to be replaced. Thank you.

First time I have seen a Wine Optimus .....

I would be a potential if I could get it with basket web like the normal 1929-L (DD pitches).
