Pro Preferred 2-Tone Series

So lets continue on with the new gloves shall we? The Pro Preferred Series has been one of the most popular lines for Rawlings since its introduction in 2001. This year Rawlings introduces the Pro Preferred 2-Tone Series as a welcome addition to the line.

So what's up with this line? Well, besides a new look, there are a combination of different materials used on this glove as opposed to the standard Pro Preferred gloves. The big one is the use of Italian Bruciato leather, which is the darker leather on the glove along with the flawless Kip leather that is used on all Pro Preferred gloves. This gives the glove its great 2-Tone look. These gloves are available in 5 popular styles and they even have catcher's and the first base position covered.

I really liked the 11 3/4" model which is the one pictured here. It has a wing tip back and the Pro I pattern really shows off the 2-Tone concept. Unfortunately, they don't offer it for a lefty. That's alright though, I know I'm outnumbered by you "normal" people so Rawlings has to please the ruling class. Regardless, you should still check these gloves out. It's a great new addition to the series and it's just one more reason why more pros choose Rawlings gloves than any other brand. Check em all out here.
