Look what Fedex brought me!

Anybody who was worried I was going to play ball with my Ozzie Smith signed PRO12TC can breathe a sigh of relief now.

The Fedex guy was kind enough to deliver these to me this weekend:

One for me and one for my nephew. I wanted to get him one to reward him for making his all-star team this year.

Does anyone know how Don Morton got these? On the bar-code tag it says PRO12TCSO - I'm thinking the SO stands for "Special Order"? Maybe he special orders them from the factory?

The gloves are high-quality, but the leather was super-dry - like these have been sitting in a warehouse for a while. But a little lanolin and these babies are ready to start breaking in. More images here:

I'm still hoping to get one more PRO12TC - one that's made in the usa - but it might be a little while before I get that one.

Hey sweet gloves. Thanks for sharing with pics.
I'm on the verge now of buying one from Don Morton myself.
I have no self restraint.

I got my PRO12TC from Morton about 2 years ago, still breaking it in...don't know what my tag states...

My older PRO24 (tan, somewhat larger, and a fastback type) from Morton is fully broken in.
