2 tj's, Ross, and Burlington.
0-4.
I'm in the Los Angeles area.
Never say never, but i think its too early for the others. Last yr ross had em beat by at least a month, maybe two. It makes sense though in that they get batting gloves, cleats, softball bats and other lower end gloves - so they just seem to roll em all out in the spring. It seems like ross just pushes em out when they come in with no thought of 'like product' and seasonal. That said i think jenn said she saw some at tj around xmas. Everything arnd me was long gone by fall.

I bought one a long time ago when they were expensive... these gloves are really light, but crap... Its made of plastic with some leather in the palm.. the web and paracord need to be altered to accommodate a softball.. It feels like something for built for little kids but wasnt

Someone said on FB the white pic about was taken in Mexico.
If I remember correctly, they 1st turned up in CA last year (Ross) and then shortly there after in other states.
To my understanding, there is no rhyme or reason as to which store gets them.
Just part of a wholesale deal and things get divvied up and sent to where its sent.
I'd figured I'd missed the Ross wave last year b/c my Dad started looking after it was well known but there's a chance that Area just didnt get them. 1 glove in 4 stores (although they cld have sold prior or not got them in yet) isnt very good odds.
Just remember- like I said last year Ross in on the BOTTOM of the discount food chain. TJ/Marshalls, Burlington (who also got vapors and the other Nike gloves last year), followed by Ross bringing it up the rear.
My guess is the others might have taken the boxed ones and the unboxed made it to Ross.
In past years, they seem to wait until the spring to puit out all the baseball stuff so they might not be out for a bit, and sure $99 is 3x the $30 cost... but if thats the only option and you really wanna try one a hundred bucks still isnt bad
that pic wasn't from mexico, it was from so cal and someone made a mexico joke

0-1 for me (tjmaxx) but they did have the Nike Shado Edge 11.5" i web for $29.99.....




They also had several youth franklin gloves.... FWIW, I like the Vapor. I bought one of these last year for $99. It is definitely different but it is a good baseball outfield glove and is ok for softball use imo.

Nice!!! I've seen the bright green/yellow traps and the silver (like yours) as well as pink I webs over the winter in ones and twos but not knowing much about nike, as well as being small ( and kinda thin) just assumed they were not a big find. But when they start showing up everywhere and if anyone needs them for their kids or whatever and cant find any local hit me up/ lmk and i'll try to help!!

The only shado worth buying is the Shado Elite PRO they used to carry at Sport Authority, Orig. retails for $199 on sale for $99 before they closed. and of course the Shado Elite J @ $399. The Shado Edge is not even the Player Preferred quality when you compare them to Rawlings

I had one of those Shado Pros for about 5 minutes.
My first Wilson "Ron Cey" model was better quality.

I can name alot of gloves better than the Shado Pro, my point is they are better than the Shado Edge (by a good margin). I feel the Shado Pro worth the $99. admission, But the Edge should be priced around $30, which it is.

I don't know a thing about the Pro or Edge, but I can tell you that I love my Nike MVP Select! And I'll be on the lookout through the spring for that elusive $29.95 Vapor360 at my local Ross!!

I picked up A shado edge last year at Ross for $35. I put my hand in it a few times. Then it sat in my closet for a while. I finally returned it.
I didn't feel like it was a very good deal, as it seemed like a $35 glove.
I'm with you datduke.
