Inconsistent Quality Control
I purchased 2 custom heart of the hides within a week of each other; this one which is an all black TT2 and an all tan 200 series which I previously did a review on. I initially noticed that the break in was not FIRM like I had ordered and that the leather was noticeably thinner than the tan 200 series I had received a week earlier. I also noticed that the thumb loop/sleeve was different than my 200 series and looked like it had been done in a rush. Overall it’s a decent enough glove, but having compared it to my custom tan heart of the hide (which is awesome), the leather on this glove is thinner and far less firm and the thumb loop is not as nice. I’m disappointed with the inconsistency between the two gloves and can’t recommend spending all that money on a custom glove anymore. If I could return it, I definitely would.

havent received custom glove yet its been 8 wks
my only isssue as of yet is when checking status of glove the only info you can obtain is that you ordered a custom glove and once you select purchase you do not get an itemized detail of the glove you ordered it just disappears off the web site would really be a nice feature to see order status and what you ordered i can see how this could be. a problem especially with some of these bad reviews saying rawlings messed up the order and won't do anything about it wish i read the reviews before purchase i would have not made this order very cooncerned hoping glove comes as ordered spent $429.00

Best Catcher’s Mitt on the Market
I ordered my 12yr old a custom Heart of the Hide catcher’s mitt and was delivered at the end of July. Figured it would take all fall and winter to get broke in for the spring season, but with a little help from Dad (me), he was able to get game ready in less then 2 months using the Rawlings Gloveolium, mallet and rubber bands. He is already using in games for his fall travel ball team. He loves it!! Best glove on the market!

The glove too stiff to review after a few days.
My son’s new glove arrived last week. Rawlings is asking me to review the glove after we have had it about ten days. My son can almost catch a ball with it, we are still breaking it in. We have a long way to go before he will be able to give a full review of the glove. His new glove will be ready by the first spring game.
So far, the glove is outstanding. It is exactly what my son was expecting. The workmanship and the leather are great. It is exactly what we were expecting. Thanks Rawlings, but it’s too early to give a review. Let us break it in and my son will tell you what he thinks.

This is a high quality baseball glove still in the early stages of breaking it in.
The personalized information (name, #, etc.) is also attractive.

Slightly disappointed
When I first received my glove, I couldn’t have been happier. It looked awesome. Everything about it was exactly as I had hoped. This was my first ever custome glove. As I was slowly breaking the glove in, which was going very well, I needed to righted the pinky sling. That’s when I got disappojnted. There was a manufacturing defect. The sling had a cut nearl two thirds of the way across the tie strap. Thankfully customer service issued an RA and my glove is being fixed.

The glove don't fit and they won't fix.
Received my new glove which was the 4th one I have bought, this one was obviously incorrectly made I could not even get my hand in it without much discomfort. I sent it back and their "glove expert" said it was made correctly. So I gave it to someone who knows gloves and the only thing he could do was to unlace it and leave one hole for the hand opening out. Even doing this I still have trouble getting my hand in. I will probably never buy another Rawlings glove again.

Taking forever to make the glove
Very disappointed customer. My son bought his custom glove over two months ago we still have not received it. We sent 3 emails and made many calls to customer service before finally getting a ship date. Ship date is 13 weeks after placing the order. Will follow up if and when we receive the glove.

Amazing Custom Heart of the Hide!
This was customized for my 12 year old son. He has a Wilson A2000 but he prefers this Rawlings Heart of the Hide much more. The HOH is now his gamer, Great fit, high quality, he is looking forward to making plays with this glove.

Bought this for my 11u player and HE LOVES IT! We gave it to him for his Bday. He admired the box it came in for a real long time lol. Once he opened the awesome box, he didn’t let go of that glove for days!
Next one we get will be for Coach Daddy! ❤️

No break in
I recieved my custom glove. It looked amazing just like I hoped. The only issue for us was that I ordered it RTG and it came in with no break in at all. I couldn't even squeeze it. I had to pay to get it worked twice just so I could squeeze it. We'll get it to work but definitely disappointed.

Non existent customer support
Product supposedly delivered but not found at address.Despite repeated requests for help and a tracking number, no response from customer support. Not what I expected from a company like Rawlings

No Communication
Received request to review with no communication on whether the glove has shipped or even started production. Logging in tells you nothing other than it was paid and when the order was received.

Dream Glove
I ordered this dream glove after a few years of waiting and two previous mid-level Rawlings workhorse gloves. This one is the best ever, a brown-leather classic.

Great quality
Glove was designed great. I ordered Ready to Go and both orders arrived stiff and unbroken in. Will take months to break so make sure you order accordingly.
