Glove webs, what’s everyone’s favorite?

[bmakj]

DD swears by her H web AS CMW3000, so much so that when I mentioned looking around for a used mitt to put in her bag as a backup, she insisted it could only be AS CMW3000. so we bit bullet and bought new CMW3001 (I guess they no longer make the 3001, but it seems to be same except for coloring), and start the 6 week break in process (true tank, out of box she cannot touch the two sides together).

DD says she likes H web because if she has to position mitt directly in front of her face to catch a pitch, she can still see it coming in.

I still have my HS glove I used in the outfield when not behind the plate. I bought this shortly after Mizuno was first introduced to the U.S. Just goes to show how long I've been an H-web fan.

You should send that to Rous and let him work his magic on it! That binding around the index opening will be tough!

Looks like that was some really good leather, is that a World Win model by chance?

Maybe one of the coolest looking webs ever! Somewhat RV23ish.....

What about this Glovesmith with a base for the I-web, most (ALL) I-webs lace directly to the crouch of the palm / glove shell. Odd!

This is a USA custom in wheat Duratan, with that added base I bet this one is one tough beast of a glove!

The I-web on my Dan Davis Gloveworks is as nice as ANY I-web I've ever seen, including much more expensive customs!

Looks like I'm starting to turn into a big I-web fan!

Then you have to decide, single or double stitch for the base of the I. Single will give a lot deeper and softer pocket!

single or double stitch for the base

You mean lace? If so I like the single lace X's on my NP5 better than the double X's on my NP7 for exactly the reasons you stated! I used to think I liked the double more for the coolness factor, but not anymore!

Yep. The binding is rough all over but I don't mind since I exclusively use my CMW3000 now.
