SANDLOT Baseball Glove | Sizes 11.5"-12.75" | Multiple Styles

I bought this glove primarily to play catch with my son, and for using as an assistant coach for a little league team. My very old glove finally bit the dust and I decided to try the Rawlings Sandlot. It comes partially broken in, and is certainly usable right away, but still needs a little more work to really feel smooth. But isn't that the case for pretty much any decent glove? Anyway, after using it for a few days I can honestly say it has softened up nicely (I helped it along with some glove oil) and I feel very comfortable using it. Its a really great looking glove, and the 12.75" version is big, but not too big for my average size hand. The quality of the glove lacing and leather seems very good, especially at this price point. You can certainly spend $300 or more on a glove if you like, but for most purposes, this one is more than adequate. I'm quite happy with my purchase and the value for how little this glove costs is great.

Excellent glove! Performance- Used in a coed ASA softball league and it performed beautifully! I can see this glove performing well all the way up to lower division college Baseball and all levels of softball. It broke in right away. After a few games you need will need to tighten it. Cosmetics- absolutely stunning! Comfort - I used two fingers in the pinky slot, with index finger outside the slot. With this grip I experienced no stings. If you do like to place your index finger in the slot, then you may need a batting glove if playing baseball at an advance level. In my opinion this glove is a better value than a Wilson a1000. The Rawlings is ready to go straight from the box while the a1000 needs a break in period of about a week. This glove is a must buy for the price, performance, Quality and Looks.

I love this glove, it feels premium, but man, the "Zero Shock" palm will give your hand a workout for quite a while. The mitt ships partially broken-in, but you're definitely going to need to put it to work to get it to the point where it is comfortable and floppy. Fun break-in routine: rub the entire glove, laces and all, with a very light coat of mink oil using a dry wash cloth. Place a ball in the pocket and wrap it as tight as you can with a boot lace. The next day, you can remove the ball, fold the glove up, and start smacking it against a door frame. I mean, beat the ever loving snot out of it. After you're tired, rub another very light coat of mink oil on the entire glove, laces and all, wait about 30 minutes, and then begin to twist the glove in ungodly ways. I'm talking about bending it in any which way you can think of. After the leather has been thoroughly tortured, tighten the laces, wrap it again (as tight as you can get it) with a boot lace for another day or so. After all that has been done, your glove should be pretty much acceptable. Play catch to break it in further and remember to have fun. It's just a game after all.

I got the 12 3/4 glove for backyard catch because the style reminds me of a glove I had as a kid. The leather and stitching are about medium quality and the palm and fingers are nicely padded. The fit is as expected and while not 90% broken in as claimed it should loosen up after a few weeks. Update: just finished up a season of Spring and Fall little league with the kid and the glove is breaking in nicely. I have been using saddle soap to keep it clean and soften the leather. This glove should definitely last a few years with proper care.

I am now using this glove for the second season and still perfect. Was easy to break-in. Good quality.

Bought it and wasn't expecting such an awesome service. Was delivered from the US to Portugal in just 4 days. Was cheaper than to order from any other amazon service in the EU... even paying more than 30€ for shipping... The glove is beautiful and extremely comfortable. Adapts right away to your hand. Catching the ball is very smooth thanks to fabric and protections used and on the net, you barely feel the impact. In sum, great service, excellent product for anyone whose starting the practice of the sport and fair relation between value and quality.

Absolutely great ball glove for the money. I don’t ever see a need for a glove that cost more that 100$. Unless you’re a pro and don’t care about throwing money on a glove. I have been playing baseball for 25 years. Youth ball all the way through Division 1 college ball. This glove will last many seasons. I promise. Rawlings is hard to beat. And I’m not sure why some people don’t think this glove is not pre broken in. They must have never owned an expensive glove like an A2000. Those are like rocks when you first get them. This glove is comfortable and ready to go right out of the box.

Great glove for Me, returning to the game. Easy to break in and soft after about 1 month.

ASIN B074HRPH6T, S1275H-0/3, 12 3/4" (32,4 cm), lanceur gaucher (le gant va dans la main droite) J'ai eu beaucoup de difficultés à trouver un gant pour lanceur gaucher. J'ai obtenu, avant les fêtes, l'un des derniers articles de cette série juste à temps. La dimension du salon ne permet pas d'apprécier à sa juste valeur ce gant en plein hiver. Mon fils de 14 ans m'a dit qu'il était un peu "raide", mais on s'attend à cela pour un gant neuf. Arrivé en parfaite condition, bien emballé dans deux sacs transparents dont l'un scellé. Je trouve que le prix que j'ai payé était juste, lors de mon achat, pour un gant entièrement en cuir et qui va durer vraiment longtemps.

Nothing to dislike .looks great .extremely well made. Great for catching. Shame they don't do a left handed thrower version (ie glove for right hand) but don't seem to make these anywhere

This glove is cool and very nice. My kid loves it.
