Rawlings | R9 Fastpitch Softball Glove Series | Multiple Styles

Muy bueno, alta calidad

The glove is easy to break in but I'd still recommend using glove oil on it (the Rawlings documentation says as much). That said after applying that and putting a ball in it with a glove wrap overnight, it was already to a point where my daughter could routinely catch a 12" ball with it. It still needs a bit of breaking in to get to an ideal state, but she could absolutely use it in a game as it is now. I was happily surprised by that.If it has any shortcoming it might be the laces, which seem just slightly loose across the glove fingers relative to most ball gloves. But tightening that would be rather trivial if we wanted to do so.

This glove is great, fits my hand perfectly and was already quite worked in.

This glove has a nice deep pocket great for anyone with smaller hands or someone looking to have more control of their glove, thinking of the 12.5 model now.

My 9 year old daughter loves this glove. She plays first base and right field, so this glove is great when she is on First. we plan to purchase another Rawlings R9 fielding glove in the coming months. Great glove, great price on Amazon.
