Believe me when I say this, this is a very, very good baseball glove for softball and could be used for the infield or outfield glove…it’s a tweener! I coached baseball for some thirty years at the high school and collegiate levels and this could be used at those levels and last a long time. I’m a sworn Rawlings guy but this glove rivals the quality. One last thing…use saddle soap to keep your glove supple. Don’t use glove oil…it will just make it heavy.
