Fake Nokona/Spalding Hybrid?

The "American PRO" patch on the pinky looks suspiciously like the one's on Nokona and if you look closely you can even see a "Made in the USA" tag on the inside of the wrist like new Nokonas too. Something just isnt right here.

Wow, your'e right. Looks alot like an AMG1150MT. Wonder who could tell us if Nokona makes it for Spalding?

Softball66, can you tell us if Nokona makes gloves for Spalding? This glove looks exactly like the AMG series.

Rob says Nocona made some samples for Spalding a few years ago but
no order was placed.

Thanks, Joe. Don't you think this is a Nokona glove or a replica?

that was a line of gloves they made about 3-4 years ago... a spalding rep was literally trying to give them away to our college team, and other than the free embroidery, there wasn'much appeal.

That was back when I was spoiled and had a box of USA HOH's left over from the 90's from the outlet store...

Back on topic, I havent seen one of those Spaldings since, and I kind of wish I would have got one.
