You'll take diamonds across the nation by storm with its combination of the rich, traditional history behind Rawlings' Heart of the Hide gloves and a little personalization through unique, vibrant colors. In baseball, the world-renowned name "Heart of the Hide" says it all, because the leather that is used for each glove is cut from the top 5% of the center on steer hides Rawlings has available.
Laced together by the Tennesse Tanned rawhide leather laces, each pattern delivers greatness, unmatched durability, and strength. Not only will you be getting one of the most dependable and reliable baseball gloves in the game, but the padded palm, padded thumb loops, and soft full-grain finger back linings provide top-notch comfort and extra protection during impact on defense.Each model will also offer up to a 30% factory break-in so that the player break-in period is not near as time-consuming as other elite designs. Top Rawlings Advisory Staff players make sure to give their input on each Heart of the Hide design so that it guarantees pro level patterns with big league quality and performance. Worn by a number of Gold Glove Award winners, the Heart of the Hide baseball glove has been the cornerstone of those deemed "The Finest in the Field" and are now available to elite ball players looking to improve and refine their defensive greatness.

Have inner pockets that are pre-oiled at the factory. There is a tendency for the oil to bleed through (particularly on the lighter tan and brown colored gloves) and it is not uncommon to see what appears to be an oil stain of varying degree in the palm area of these gloves. I have received gloves in the past that arrived without any evidence of oil and within months, the oil bleeds through into the palm. Many of the gloves ordered off of "stock"pictures on the internet will end up having this condition.
TIP: Many of the premium gloves including Rawlings Pro Preferred & Heart of the Hide, Wilson's A2000 & A3000, Mizuno's Classic Pro and Pro Limited, etc. Are somewhat stiff when brand new. A quality glove conditioner will do much to reduce the break-in period for any stiff new glove. Almost all glove conditioners will generally darken the leather and appearance of lighter colored gloves. TIP: Regardless of whether you prefer the natural method of breaking in a glove, sooner or later you will have to recondition your glove! Personally, I recommend cleaning and conditioning a glove each and every year after a good season of use. All leather gloves will start to dry out and laces will become brittle when subjected to regular use. Prolonged exposure to sand and dirt, wind, rain, hot sun, etc.Will take its toll on even the very best glove. PLEASE stay away from those cheap oils, foams or other liquid products out there on the market. The foams don't work and liquids such as oils are absorbed deep into the glove, add a tremendous amount of weight, and are nothing more than a magnet for attracting dirt and debris. Also, PLEASE don't ever bake your baseball glove in the oven or microwave or soak it in the tub to aid in the break-in process.
You will invariably destroy a very fine piece of leather and take years off a gloves life! Personally, I never use anything but a paste type glove conditioner. Although I prefer Wilson Pro Stock Glove Conditioner, there are comparable products on the market from manufacturers such as Easton, Nokona, etc. Regardless of what brand of paste type conditioner you choose to use, do yourself a favor and make sure it contains lanolin and vitamin E. Nothing is better at restoring and revitalizing the leather on your glove!
With a little care, your glove should last for many years and most likely outlive your baseball career.
