Minimum Advertised Price Keeps Rawlings Standards High

Have you ever wondered why the Rawlings glove you want never seems to go on sale?

It’s an effort to keep prices uniform so that all Rawlings outlets, including Rawlings Gear, can focus on providing superior service to customers. It’s called the Minimum Advertised Price.

A MAP is an agreement between suppliers and retailers that specifies the lowest price at which an item is allowed to be advertised. If you've ever tried to shop around for an item and kept coming across the same price, you probably discovered that item’s MAP.

Rawlings performance products fall into this category. As part of the MAP policy, these performance products also are not eligible for discounts or promotions.

Rawlings performance products are
• Primo gloves
• Pro Preferred gloves
• Heart of the Hide gloves
• 5150 bats
• Custom gloves thru the Pro Glove Builder

The MAP policy also helps to support the technology and development needed for these performance products.

For more than a century, Rawlings has provided the very best baseball and softball products in the world. These quality products are the result of significant investment into the development of the latest product innovations that are designed to enhance the game for both professional and amateur athletes. Rawlings currently holds more glove patents than all other manufacturers combined, and Rawlings’ research and development efforts have led to the introduction of the relevant standards in the industry, including the original Basket-Web and Trap-Eze web gloves. As a result, Rawlings is the number one choice of professional baseball players, with more pros choosing a Rawlings glove than any other brand.

Rawlings Gear’s Customer Care representatives are pros when it comes to Rawlings’ products, and they are committed to helping customers find the equipment, apparel and accessories they need.
