Any idea if this is Horween?

So I’ve been thinking about purchasing a glove locally to me but I can’t tell if it’s Horween or not. It has the “oil treated leather” which makes me think it’s not, but on the other hand it looks like there is Horween dust on the glove. The color and leather grain looks like Horween as well. I will leave some pictures, if anyone has some information let me know!

I think that's just regular dust.

Okay thanks.

If I remember correctly, BC is basket connector web and the TL is oil treated tan leather…I’m like 50% on that without googling. Not familiar with the pattern code, but think it should have a date code on the exterior of the glove that would show date code and tannery.

I am sure you have either bought it or passed already. The oil-tanned (TL) leather from Horween didn't have the "dust" or "bloom" you mentioned. I only ever worked on TL HOH gloves that were Horween, but this one is more brown and less dark tan than any I ever worked on. If the leather was super heavy duty, then my money (but not a lot) would be on it being Horween.

Gotcha that makes sense, I believe someone bought it on eBay. I figured it wasn’t Horween because it was so dark but it was worth a shot to see!
