Franklin RTP 13" Softball Glove - Black/ Gray

Comment: DONT BUY THIS GLOVE IF YOUR SERIOUS ABOUT PLAYIN SOFTBALL...ITS NOT LEATHER AND IS NOT FOR SOMEONE WHO PLAYS BALL...CHEAP ALL AROUND

Comment: I am back into playing ball again after a short hiatus of about 40 years so I went down to my neighborhood used sporting equipment store to pick up a glove. I have quite long fingers so I tried on a bunch of gloves and every one felt like I was putting my fingers into a vise. When I put on this glove, however, it was like putting on, well, a glove. Not a baseball glove, just a glove. The finger compartments are by far the most comfortable of any baseball glove I've ever worn. The little extra padded section on the back side of the glove for your index finger is a nice touch, too. I have only had it for a month, so I don't know if it will hold up, but so far so good!

The only negative is that the padded spot for your index finger on the back is rather inconveniently placed. I always find my finger landing somewhat to the right of the extra padding; to keep it on the padding pushes it to the left at a rather uncomfortable angle. I should note that it is farther from the ball impact spot, though, so maybe it's a good thing. Maybe I'll get used to it.

Comment: I purchased these softball gloves for our participation in a small softball league. We soaked them in shaving cream for a couple of hours and then werapped them around a ball. They were broken in very quickly and work wonderfully. The price was low and the product was more than I expected.

Comment: I bought this items a month ago, and have use it alot now, about 20 or more games, in bad weather conditions, lot of heat and some times rainy days, really rough use, and its really a great deal for that price, its a really confortable glove. if you're not planin to spend at least 60-70 dolars in a softball glove, I have to say this is one of the best choices you have.

Comment: I am in the military and I bought this glove to use in the desert of Kuwait. I has held up well under the extreme heat conditions here. I love the feel of the glove, when I use it. The price was nice too!! They sell a similar glove at our px for $10 more than I paid for this one.
Definately would recommend anyone to purchase.
