Rawlings Heart of the Hide R2G 12 1/4"

This Heart of the Hide model (R2G) stood for "Ready 2 Go" the leather quality is the exact same as every pro stock USA Steerhide used on the Heart of the Hide. The R2G used the softer more flexible steerhides in the Rawlings selection process, as well, the R2G features minimal heel padding, similar to the Dustin Pedroia (DP15) Wilson A2000 & A2K. This glove is meant for people who enjoy more feel in the infield. At 12 1/4" this is mostly meant for third basemen but to each their own, this glove can be used basically anywhere at the lower levels of baseball as well. It's honestly in my opinion the perfect starter glove for the kid who wants a great quality glove with more feel and easier closing times The glove is formed as most infield gloves are with the funnel flare, however due to the softness of the leather, this can be easily changed to the buyer's liking I used this glove in batting practice to shag, and that's it, this is 2-3 years old, however feels brand new. Not stiff at all but holds form quite well
