Had a box on the front porch at lunch.....there's a used, nicely broken in RV1961 in the box! Nah, this is one that I got from Casedawg for one of our TB players 1.5 to 2 years ago. Her mom called me to tell me her DD was going to finally hang her cleats up for good, she wants to focus on grades and work on getting in the college of her choice, awesome young lady, great family!


This is going to be a fun glove and it's going to look great with some new Tanners tan lace! Fits my hand like it was made for me. I'm a little shocked at how flimsy the index and middle fingers are, Anna's customs in tan have never gotten like that, some good ole rock hard Tanners lace will help remedy that some.

What is that glove? That is just like what I am looking for!!

That is a RV1961 - Kip leather, 12.75" I have an awesome black&white one in my inventory if you want to send me a message - be happy to quote you a price.

My DD is loving this glove in the outfield and finally has it broken in. Regarding the index & middle fingers, I am still concerned with her glove that the same thing will happen. The new RV1961's do not have the mid-finger lacing that is shown in this glove. Those laces have busted out on her other Vinci (BV1929-L) and had to do an emergency fix. I'm waiting for a break in the action so I can get it re-laced with some Tanners. Planning on sending it along with her sisters JCV-VM catchers mitt to Rous in hopes of stiffening them back up.

I've got to say, I was quite surprised! They're beyond flimsy, to the point that I'd hate to take a knuckling line shot straight at me!! Some good Tanners will help no doubt but not completely fix the issue, it's almost like there's nothing inside those two fingers? It's still going to be a fun glove to play around with after it's re-laced, it'll probably turn into a donor glove in the near future.
