What is Rawlings R2G made of?

[pidgeon]

Does anyone know what kind of leather Rawlings uses for its R2G line, specifically something like this?

https://www.rawlings.com/product/P-PROR205-4BC.html?dwvar_P-PROR205-4BC_throwingHand=Right#start=13

It's called a Heart of the Hide and the description says "additional 25% factory break-in" and thinner heel pad, but can anyone tell if the leather itself is a lower spec? In other words, I am trying to avoid a "Featherlight" leather.

Certainly looks like it could be the Featherlite, but even if it isn't, I would bet it is similar.

I thought it was regular hoh with 50% broken in at the factory, Just ready to go for the younger crowd that buys them from the big box store
