Bench Choice

Edit 7/2: i’ve narrowed it down to my top 3 (I think FA ABX is leading tho). Note that off the bat I will not be purchasing accessories:
Rep nighthawk $450 - top of the line pure bench. Has some accessories if I choose
Freak athlete ABX $500 - see main focus below. The flip headrest would be a great boon for my back workouts as I currently only have free weights
Apex $500 - seems to be quality wise somewhere between the other 2 options. Has a better ecosystem

I’m on the hunt for the best home bench in the US. Initially, I’ll use it as part of a setup with mostly free weights, but I want it to grow with me as I build a more comprehensive home gym.
My budget is not a concern. Which bench should I purchase? Why?
(My current main focus is shoulders, back, and posterior chain as I fix my posture but I am looking to get a full at home setup for full lifting)

Hand Sewn Welting on an OF glove

I’ve been in the market vacillating between a Timberglaze (custom), Horween, some hot blonde, or Emery Hidden Tracks Candy Rush
I know that’s a diverse list but I like what I like😂

One thing which I take want is hand welting which I can’t seem to find in outfield gloves. Any idea why or recs for me to consider?

Thanks all for being glove nerds
If anyone really wants to read about my dilemma, the horween that the enthusiast appeal but it doesn’t tickle me the same way some of the deeper colors do. I think the outfield version is just super lame
Timberglaze has just seemed so damn beautiful
Blonde with some long laces is a treat albeit maybe a bit too understated for what I’m going for. Has classic appeal
And I just love the hidden tracks but am petrified to buy an Emery since I can’t handle it and there’s nearly nothing online despite having some loyal fans on Reddit

Emery Gloves Fit Comp (Rawlings v Wilson)

I’m looking into getting an Emery outfielders glove 12.5” from their hidden tracks collection. Everything people have to say about craftsmanship is super positive but no one talks about the hand fit

Does anyone Emery glove feel on hand more like a Rawlings hoh/pp or a Wilson a2000/a2k?
Bonus pts if anyone has any details about comfort

I have large and wide hands and the Wilson’s always are very uncomfortable for me
