I just ordered a custom Vinci BMB-OB that I am liking a lot. I lost my Rawlings 1st base glove (gold glove middle of the road model) and now have an Akadema. Maybe I will order a Vinci to match my BMB-OB.

The rawlings got very floppy but was good for a couple years. The Akadema feels kind of cardboardy....hard to explain, but does not feel like high quality leather.

PRODCT Made in USA. I have not seen a 1B glove like that ever even a Vinci. Also, the OG Pro Preferred 1B glove is right next to the Made in the USA proDCT

Look as Diaz Gloves. Great Gloves at a great price. they will work with you also to get your glove looking just how you want. also they can make it any size you want to to 14in

Hard to argue with the PRO DCT, but finding a non-dual core HOH version isn't easy, right?

It's a whopper at 14" and built like a tank, but these are pretty sweet in my book. Although if pocket depth is priority #1, I am not sure you can beat a Vinci mitt.

Just picked up a 12.75 Inch Easton Professional EPG35BT NIW for 120 shipped. Any thoughts on this glove?

Swenson

It was a little pricey. But it's the sickest 1b mitt I have ever owned. Swenson WL-40. I've been playing 1B since high school (10 years) and it's by far the best pocket. Scoops by itself. Great mitt. Got mine in Black & tan.

I agree with the JVB-SB votes! I promise I am not bias :D

Honestly, it is the onyl high quality first base mitt I have ever seen or used so I can't comment on the other glvoes people are promoting. They are probably nice in their own right but I can only comment on the JVB-SB and tell you it is an amzing glove and I have never had anyone disappointed once they got it. Perfect size and it develops a nice pcoket. If you can't make the play with the JVB-SB you might want to start catching! :D

1b mitt

3 years ago I got a wilson A2000 baseball 1b glove. It was Amazing for 1 year of baseball. I decided softball was more fun for the time invested and started using it for 1b and when I pitched. worked great for 2 years of catching lasers up the middle and heaters thrown to 1b, but now it seems to soft and really hard fast balls can spin out of the glove now. I never put softener on it because I heard they can get to soft quick if you do it to much. For a 200$ glove it wore out to quick, but break in was real quick.
