bet you never grab the wrong glove in the dugout again!
is there a story behind the color combination?
Actually this was one of the sample gloves for sale on the site. Wanted to see how the gamer series is before my custom came in
How is the leather compared to the pro steerhide?

I have used IRFANVIEW for years to resize digital photos. It's a free download and extremely easy to use.

Thanks for the suggestion I ended up emailing the photos to myself and choosing a smaller size on them. Saved the photos back on my iPhone and voila, smaller sized pictures lol

Wow that is a really cool glove! Love the black leather accent. It’s amazing how nice of a glove they make even at the Game Day level.

Yeah man, the leather quality isn’t one you would expect at that price point. One things for sure, gotta give it up to @davisrelacing for introducing Gloveworks to us here

Really classic look with a little flair from the GW monogrammed leather. It will patina wonderfully.
Also, the GO97 is really it! A great 12.75" shape.

Donald even suggested reverse lacing the glove so that it closes more thumb to pinky. I’m glad he did

can someone explain this "reverse lacing" and how it affects how the glove closes?

Hey, Benny
Sorry for the belated response. 12.75"(GO97) pattern is naturally thumb to mid finger closed snap. I can adjust it more likely thumb to pinky closer by changing direction of heel lace(reverse palm lace).
Like you can see following image, The left image shows much deeper than right one only by changing direction of heel lace.
That was his email to me describing reverse palm lacing

Looks a lot like a 303 pattern. Is that about right?

Yes, as close to twins as you can get.

The “Snap-action” heel was found on many Wilson’s during the 1970s and had this same reverse heel lacing.
It makes the glove have a more noticeable fold at the fingers towards the heel.

Just FYI
Black Kip leather is not in stock until January due to weather and production issues in Japan.

How do you like this compared to some of your other gloves?
I will let you know once I get the break in started. But honestly I’m super impressed on the quality and for the price
