Hey glove works where did you get the single post leather for the tan version? I am impressed at how well it matches the original color and stitching. Beautiful job, it reminds me of one of my all time favorite gloves the A2000 XLO, but somehow your version looks a little shallower.

Is there much difference between yours and the older XLO model?


Nice work!

Nice work!


The original dual hinge web made the glove (all of the A2's in my opinion) seem much deeper. I don't have an XLO to compare it to... This H web has turned this pitcher specific glove into a true utility glove. The web was custom made for me a few years ago along with the Mod Trap web, I got pretty lucky with the color match, no doubt ......I am working on 1 more A2 right now (black with an H-web)and will post pic's as soon as it's complete.
