Anyone try out the new marucci c mod gloves? How is the quality of the leather compares to Rawlings pp or Wilson a2k?
I noticed the new c mod from marucci have size medium and large hand stall. Was the original carpenter made for Rawlings?I have an original Carpenter, the stuff Scott uses is not leather it is a synthetic. Based upon the quality glove I have I would and have already highly recommended to friends to snag one of them as it's a pretty amazing feeling to have a custom fit glove.

Original carpenter was a custom glove hand stall fit to a trace of your own hand. Pretty impressive stuff, legit only fit me properly. The C-Mod did something similar but used a Rawlings shell provided by the customer just like @davisrelacing said. I'm not sure if he used the same idea there utilizing a trace of a hand or what but it does solve some of those issues that guys have with hand stall size.I noticed the new c mod from marucci have size medium and large hand stall.

If you check out the c mod, could you take a picture of the 12.75 inches with a softball in it. Thx.I'm sure the hand stall is synthetic, but the leather on the shell is going to be the same leather used on their new Capitol series. If you or anyone else has specific questions, I can run by Marucci and check them out soon. I've been wanting to take a look at them myself.
A C-Mod Rawlings that I've handled had the custom imprinted hand stall just like a regular Carpenter Trade glove.Original carpenter was a custom glove hand stall fit to a trace of your own hand.

Thanks. Could you post some pictures with a sb in the pocket? Where is their c mod gloves made?I picked up the 12.75 version, which arrived today. Here are a few initial observations:
- It’s my first Marucci, but the pattern reminds me of a 303.
- the leather is thick like a PP, but not as shinny (I think it’s just steer hide).
- there are plastic inserts in the thumb and pinky that secure your hand, and the heel padding is also reduced for TIP. No thumb or pinky loops.
- the lining has the carpenter foam material on the back of the hand, but the palm and finger lining are leather rather than composite.
Thanks for the info and pics, @Soxfan8
I have been on the fence with this exact model due to it only coming in the larger size.
What size batting glove do you wear and how does this hand stall fit?
thanks for the picture; does the c mod inner allows for using tip?I wear XL. This glove is a large. It’s a pretty snug fit. Not having the medium to compare it to, it’s hard to say how significant the difference is.
yes. you just request the "shift" model when making the order. It's right there with the sizing Medium vs Largethanks for the picture; does the c mod inner allows for using tip?

If you dont mind could you post the weight of the c mod glove, since the c mod gloves are supposed to reduce the weight from 1 to 3 oz from their c mod website. ThxThe shift models are TIP. Attempting standard grip would be very uncomfortable and not practical.

so the retail c mod is not the same as your OG c mod? So they went cheap on the retail version after marucci bought them out and only have the formed inserts in the thumb and pinky.I don’t have a scale, but there is no significant weight savings as far as I can tell. This is not the same as the original c mod (I have one). The original involved replacing the entire leather liner with synthetic material. These retail gloves have a leather liner with formed plastic inserts in the thumb and pinky.

Anyone with experience playing the retail version C-MOD : (Thinking about the shift 12 3/4, but feedback on any of them would be appreciated.)
How was it?
- Break in?
- Playability - how is it better for you in any way?
- How does the index and pinkly inserts help as to fell and closing the glove on the ball?
- What were the biggest differences?
- Based on what size you have, what would you recommend for a person with 7" wrist and 7.75" long narrow fingers?
- Anything else that sticks out?
Thanks
