It is a great glove especially for the price. It was not hard at all to break in the glove. I also, prefer to break it in a way that allows me to play my best. The size of the glove works well for slow pitch softball. It is well made and with proper care should last along time!

Out of the box the glove is pretty usable. I wear a large glove in most gloves and this fits great. I only use it to play catch I'm the yard with the kid but it's great. Color and quality is as expected with Rawlings.

For those of us who want a good value mitt for recreational play, this is a high quality choice that won't break the bank. Got both the solid web and 1st base mitts, and I am really happy with both.

When I was young I only used Rawlings gloves. At that time they were the most widely used gloves in baseball, called 'the finest in the field '. Now ,at 70, I decided to get back into softball, at a somewhat slower speed. This is a great glove and it has a perfect pocket for either softball or hardball. The leather is high quality and soft. It was easy to break in. The price was right and compared to gloves priced at two to three hundred dollars this is just as good. This model can be used for infield or outfield.

Nice catchers glove with great Rawlings quality. Got it for my nine yr old and he really likes it. It does require breaking in. This model seems more durable than the other Rawlings catchers mitt, hmm I can't remember the name of that one.

This is the replacement for my broken catcher glove and it is much better than my previous one, which I have been using for casual ball games and practice for more than 20 years. The quality is what I would expect, and it looks beautiful. Astonishingly, the price is awesome as well.

I am a 31 year old guy, 5ft 9 in, ~160 lbs, with medium sized hands I suppose. The 12.5” Player Preferred model is rather tight around the fingers and thumb to start with. I don’t know if the fit will loosen over time. I am guessing mostly not. The thumb loop can be adjusted and re-tied easily enough, but not for the 4 finger(s) spacing.I ordered both this model and the Rawlings Renegade model in 13” off amazon. I am testing both out to see which one I like more.The webbing size is fine for this 12.5” size, but the difference with the overall fit of the hand between a 12.5” and 13” is staggering. There is a much more “snug” fit with the 12.5” size as I said, even though the 13” glove is a different model from Rawlings, called Renegade. I wouldn’t know how a 12.5” Renegade glove would compare to this Player Preferred series unless I ordered those specific sizes for each, which I did not.Overall, this Player Preferred glove genuinely “feels” higher in quality, while only being marginally more expensive... maybe $20 more or less than the Renegade model...but again the quality is noticeable!The Renegade 13” model also had interior leather stitching I could feel just below the pinky liner area when I move my pinky inward, whereas this Player Preferred 12.5” model did not have any issues with unwanted stuff I could feel inside the lining where the hand goes. When you buy a glove, no matter the cost, I imagine someone wants their hands to be comfortable and not have their hands “rubbing” against something that should not be there. It’s a small annoyance, but it’s definitely there! Maybe the Renegade 13” model I tried was an anomaly in that aspect for the questionable pinky lining? For more than $40, a person should be able to get a glove that doesn’t offer any discomfort for the lining area, no matter how minor.I like both gloves... I like Renegade’s extra hand space and larger webbing, but the Player Preferred model has quite a bit better construction with smaller webbing and a tighter fit.Also, both gloves had leather hand lining for the palm of the hand, then a different “warmer” material for the back of the hand. It’s a good combo for the interior lining that provides a quality feel no matter which glove you decide upon. Both have a Velcro strap— my 1st glove to have one— which really does help to provide a better fit than I thought the Velcro strap would.Decisions, decisions...I hope that I helped for someone on the fence between the two Rawlings models, or any glove(s) at similar price points!
