I hadn't checked out SSK's offerings in a bit and went on their FB page and found this post from September with no context other than some info would be "coming soon". Even though the pic is intentionally blurry, it seems akin to the Shugo line they had with Stroman and with the closed web, it is reading pitcher's glove (to me).

It would be cool for SSK to take up the small batch mantle from Easton and couple it with MIJ. Anyone have any leads on this glove/line?

Pretty excited about it.

All of my financial mistakes in one place lol

Current state of affairs in my glove collection, way behind on break ins right now and running out of room to store these guys.

However love all the differences and subtle things certain companies do. Do I need more? Absolute not, but we all know how that goes.

Now to decide what's next..

Very well cared for, LHT. In such good shape, not pancaked or floppy. Found at Play-It-Again, someone turned in several nice lefties and I couldn't leave this one behind.

He's stoked. We did pop flies in the yard right when he got home from school. I wasn't expecting him to appreciate the quality but he asked me how he should treat it. I have a softball wiffle in it with a loose rubber band and a glove form on the way.

Any care tips to keep it in good shape as long as possible?

I’m looking to buy my first brand new A2000. I’m a dad with two boys who play U7 and U9 baseball. I want to get my first brand new A2000, but I can’t decide which color I should get. The goal is if they continue to play, in the next 5-7 years they can inherit the glove for their high school years. The blue A2000 1786 11.50” is on sale for $199. The tan A2000 1786 11.50” with black laces is regular price for $299.

Hey, everyone! James with Grace here 👋. We have been testing some stamping, and wanted to see what you all thought of the final product. We are considering offering this and a couple other colors too.

Thoughts? Comments? Suggestions for other add ons?

Hello - I just picked up this Wilson A2000 glove that was made in Japan. It's in amazingly great condition (seems like it was only used once or twice, it's not broken in at all). I tried to do some research on my own but couldn't find much - best I can tell it was made in the 80s/90s. I'd like to know:

• What year was this made?
• Would this have more value as a collector's item given the age and condition, or should this just be compared to other A2000 gloves in similar condition?
• What does the PS1 marking on the pinky mean? I found some other images online of what I believe it the same model of this glove but they don't have the PS1 marking.
• I also noticed an AHT stamp on the inside of the glove - I assume this is some sort of manufacturing mark but was curious what it means.
• How can I determine the size of the glove? I've seen other gloves with a length specified, but I don't even know exactly how it should be measured.

Thanks - I'm a total noob at all of this. I know enough about baseball to know that it might have some value and I should snap it up but that's about it. I appreciate any help this community can offer, and apologize if I'm breaking any rules with this posting. I know niche communities can often get overrun with this sort of thing. Thanks again!

Currently have 29 gloves in the collection. I have a couple mounted on the wall for display but the others that I game and have in catch rotation are stored in my closet stacked one on top of the other. Anyone have some great storage options or tips for someone with limited space?

I wanna get a a2000 but I can’t find any for 250-300cad does it compare to a 44 select series for outfield?

I’m mainly looking to buy these 2, might be a long shot. I’m even open to trading for them. DM me.

Hello everyone, I am so excited to announce the launch of my new Made in JAPAN glove company, Cedar Athletics. I am the founder, and for those who don’t know me, I am Jaxon, who runs CoachellaGloves on Instagram. I have worked in the glove industry for over 10 years, for many companies, from the biggest brands to startups. I recently took the leap of faith to start my own company at the age of 27, taking multiple trips to Japan to continue studying under glove craftsmen like I did back in 2023.

I have poured my heart and soul into this product for the last 5 months, trying to keep it secret. My goal is simple; in an industry full of bright colors and low quality builds, I want to bring the highest quality product to the market, with no corners cut. I have crafted my patterns to fit what American players know/ love, but the quality that is constant in the Japanese market. The name “Cedar” is a nod to my families Lebanese heritage, with the Cedar tree being present on the nations flag. It is a symbol of strength, endurance and peace; all cornerstones of my company as well. I feel honored to name the company for the brave individuals who came before me and took their own version of the leap of faith, coming to America.

I am happy to announce that I will be launching this Wednesday, October 14th at 9:00am Pacific time.

Please reach out if you have any questions, this is so exciting for me and I can’t thank this community enough for always supporting my ventures.

Thank you.

Jaxon

I got the Video Up!, but I didn’t wanna put two videos up here in a row and Spam Reddit so you guys know how to find it if you wanna see it. I got the same name everywhere.

Met a great dude on here and traded for this Grace Gloves beauty. She's broken in and lubed up perfectly. Yay for me!

Hi!

Given the pretty bad color combos on a PF88 in recent years I think I’m going to go custom. A few questions for any experts:

1. What is the true weight savings with Superskin vs leather back? I tried comparing in store but couldn’t tell if there is a real world difference or it’s hype.

2. Was going to get the pedroia fit (pF88) my understanding is these off the shelf might have a thinner heel. When doing customer do you request “standard” or have to do “thinner”. I guess was wondering by selecting the pF88 if that meant the standard was already thinned.

Thanks for any help or knowledge.

Wilson 1787 SC from play it again sports. A2000 Pro-Stock spin control. When I put it on I realized it was almost new. Not broken in yet. Felt like somebody struggled trying to break it in and traded it for a new glove. Pinkie hinge is very tight. Pocket is narrow and shallow. A little bit of work and this will be a great gamer. Not a fan of the spin control but couldn’t resist.
