The Pinky Patch…..Rawlings greatest era?

I’ve only owned three, my Pro12TC, a OG RV23, and my newest, a ProNP12-2TI. The latter two being @Committed specials! I don’t have that particular RV anymore, sent it to someone who has begged me for it since the first day I got it, so it went to a great home! Yeah, I’m a idiot!

Okay, first I’ve gotta say, I love all the new fully Horween exclusives from Chad here and from Don Morton’s, but….on hand nothing I own or have ever owned feels as good as those three pinky patch models I named above, actually not even close!

To me that era / time frame is the pinnacle of Rawlings gloves. First off the leather shells on those three gloves are the best leather I’ve personally owned, but the Deer tanned liners and those leather thumb & pinky loops feel absolutely perfect!

Just thought I’d bring up a new topic to talk about, so wake up!

When you factor in the design quality (sorry Bob C), it is hard to argue your point. I'm not sure if they are buying cheaper leather or if there just isn't any good leather any more, but the pinkie patch ones are mainly great gloves.
