Let the countdown begin! Spring training is just a few weeks away.
Make sure you're ready to go too with Rawlings' Primo 12.75” glove.
This Primo glove (model number PRM1275) features Rawlings' patented Fastback and a Trap-Eze web. With this "six finger" web and a deep pocket, this is the most popular style for outfielders.
Serious players have written reviews at RawlingsGear.com.
Duffer called his Primo glove “the best glove I have every owned.”
“This glove isn't noticeably heavier than the Pro Preferred or Heart of the Hide series. It just exudes 'the best of everything' from the materials to the leather to the workmanship put into this glove. There is nothing else like it out there,” he wrote.
Hans19 called it his “best purchase.”
"This glove broke in very quickly from a little glove butter and daily use for less than a month. I play at the high school level, and I have found to be worth every penny,” he wrote. “The leather quality and comfort is remarkable. It is also the coolest looking glove I have seen on the market. I went from a Pro Preferred to the Primo and never looked back.”
He then shared a word of caution: “The only thing I would say to be cautious of would be the weight because it is a bit heavy compared to competitors. But with the extra weight you do get unbelievable durability."
BaseballJunkie agreed that the weight is worth it: “This glove is for the serious player. First feel confirms the higher leather quality. Easier of the high-end gloves to break in, but the quality leather leads to a little heavier glove than Heart of the Hide or Pro Preferred. Top quality materials should make it a long lasting glove."
The Primo glove series is Rawlings’ premiere glove series.
The Primo 12.75” outfield glove is also available for left-handed players under model number PRM1275-RH.

Rawlings' PRO12MTDC Is a Glove You'll Use Over and Over
Rawlings Gear customers know when they choose Rawlings gloves, they'll get a great value every time.
Maybe that's why the 12” Heart of the Hide Dual Core glove with Modified Trap-Eze web (model number PRO12MTDC) is their second, third or even fifth glove.
Calling his PRO12MTDC a “quality glove” in a review at RawlingsGear.com, Cangelosi wrote: "I've only had this glove a week, but I love it. This is the fifth Rawlings glove I've had in my life and plan to stick with the brand."
Chill felt the same way about his PRO12MTDC: "This is my third Rawlings glove (first Pro series, second Gold Glove series) and by far my best one. The leather is great and durable. Every time I put this glove on, it forms to my hand and feels great."
This Heart of the Hide glove (model number PRO12MTDC) is primarily a pitcher's glove, it but can be used in the infield and outfield as well.
RawlingsGear.com customer Ringer praised his new glove:
"This is by far the best outfield glove I HAVE EVER OWNED, WHICH IS WHY ITS THE THIRD ONE I'VE BOUGHT!!!” he wrote.
“I have used the exact glove through many different levels of play, high school, college and independent leagues. I have probably gotten about 500 games if not more out of each glove. Now I'm retired and starting a new baseball venture at 30 years old, so I bought a new one. The Trap-Eze webbing is outrageous and the Heart of the Hide leather is just so durable, and with the Dual Core the padding is superior. If you're just an everyday player, this will be the last glove you'll ever need to buy."
Dual Core gloves are a top-selling series in Rawlings’ famous Heart of the Hide line of gloves.
The Heart of the Hide leather used in Dual Core gloves is tanned softer and the gloves have an oil-injected exterior, features that make breaking in your new glove easier.
This glove's conventional back and web provide top-notch ball snagging.
Rawlings' patented Dual Core technology gives each glove position-specific break points. That means whether you are a shortstop or a center fielder, you can be sure your Dual Core glove will help you perform to your best level.
Rawlings' 12” Heart of the Hide Dual Core glove is also available for left-handed players under model number PRO12MTDC-RH.

Rawlings' Primo Catcher's Mitt Is a 'Masterpiece'
If baseball gloves are works of art, then Rawlings' Primo 32.5” catcher's mitt is the David.
"The Primo catcher's mitt is one fine piece of master craftsmanship. I would recommend this to anyone who wishes to purchase it. You will definitely not be disappointed," wrote Yadi8 in a review at RawlingsGear.com.
He's not the only ballplayer raving about this mitt (model number PRMCM).
"I've had this glove for about three weeks and it has already formed an excellent pocket. The glove is lightweight, and so far proven to be very durable,” wrote Scottie. “The glove itself is a beautiful piece of work. It has a very distinctive, deep and rich color. I also noticed that every stitch is perfect with no flaws or skewer, which is a rarity in the glove world. My final insight is that this is the best glove on the market. You won't be disappointed purchasing this glove; it is worth the money."
"All I can really say is WOW!!! I was once again pleased with a another Primo product,” wrote Tony15mtz. “I have infield and outfield Primo gloves and this catcher's glove just completed my collection. I am very happy with these products. These gloves were well worth the money, the catcher's glove in particular. Feels amazing and although it's a little on the heavy side, it is expected because of the amazing leather quality. Amazing glove overall! I get amazing compliments everywhere I take them!"
Made from the finest Italian leather and the thickest laces, the Primo glove series is Rawlings’ premiere glove series.
Primo leather has a distinctive oxblood color and a flawless appearance. It goes through a unique tanning process for a buttery soft feel.
The lacing is the highest quality available and is tested to 100-pound tensile strength to create a shape that holds up over time.
The welting on every Primo glove is hand-sewn, which reverses the way the glove is sewn together. This gives a seamless feel and reduces friction against your thumb.
Add to all of that Dual Core technology in the palm of each glove that absorbs impact and gives you better glove control, 100 percent wool padding and position-specific break points that keep the glove in top condition longer.
Primo gloves are built for your comfort and performance but most of all to last longer. If you want the very best from a glove, you need a Rawlings Primo glove.

Rawlings' Great Hands Glove (model number 5TGRTHANDS) is a flat glove without a pocket that can be used to improve fielding.
Made to fit both youth and adults, this training glove is smaller than a normal glove, but it is made from the same great leather used in Rawlings' game-day gloves.
Use this glove to practice catching the ball in front of your body while you heighten your focus and concentration.
Work on fielding backhand by having a partner throw or roll the ball to your opposite side.
Increase the difficulty by using the Rawlings Reaction Ball (model number REACTBALL), which is made with an off-center weight so it bounces erratically.
It's all part of Rawlings' 5-Tool Training Program, a partnership with Ripken Baseball that will take players of all ages to the next level.
Every 5-Tool Training product includes drills and instructions to help you improve your baseball performance.
Watch this Cal Ripken video, which has tips on how to use the Great Hands Glove to improve your fielding.

Be Like Jeter With a Rawlings Signature Glove
Does your ballplayer idolize Derek Jeter? Make his day with Rawlings' Derek Jeter Signature Series glove.
This glove (model number DJ2) is a game day replica of Jeter’s glove. It is 11.5” with a Basket web and a conventional back.
These gloves are made for 8- to 11-year-old athletes who play at least 40 games per year.
"This glove was purchased for a 10-year-old and a good ballplayer. It was an excellent glove!" wrote bobby4 in a recent review at RawlingsGear.com.
Similar to Rawlings' Gold Glove Gamer Pro Taper series, the Signature series of gloves also features a Pro Taper design. These gloves have a full-grain leather shell, leather lacing and a Zero Shock™ sting reduction palm pad.
They require minimal break-in time.
Rawlings Gear recommends a Pro Taper glove for the athlete who is ready to move into a better glove, but whose hand is still too small for a Rawlings Heart of the Hide, Pro Preferred or Primo glove.
Rawlings' Signature Series 11.5” glove is also available for left-handed players under model number DJ2-RH.
For that extra touch, this glove can be engraved.
