I have been involved with baseball since I was a little one, much like many of you. I relaced my first glove when I was 10..used my shoe strings..just like many of you, now am 64, still relacing gloves, but not with shoe laces...would if I had too, but still enjoy the business. I enjoy good leather, its treatment and the preservation and integrity of the game.
I have owned to many gloves, so says my wife, perhaps she's right...she is most of the time, but I do not regret any of em. :D

recently my neighboor wanted to vent..ah, ya see he recieved an e mail with a link to this web site, he read the responses and boy did he get a little upset, I opened a membership...He asked me to reply to the comments, well, I did..hated to see my buddy blasted like that. We made some phone calls to Nokona and Rawlings..got some answers, still waiting on another letter from Nokona, and a reply from Horween leathers(Skip). Back and forth we went...this and that, lawyers and by-standers, rule 4 stuff boarder line implications, factual litagations and rain clouds, wow it got heavy...the plot thickend..then I had to go to the bath room. I have asked that any further comments be addressed to an outside media, another private email. All in all this is a great web site, Iam real new to this blog stuff and so far I have one glove, a Rawkings Pro-1000BFOT a cordovan colored glove..real nice! i just bought it from my neighboor, I may buy another one from a local card shop. c-ya
