Looking to move a few from my collection. These are hard to come by and discontinued from Easton before they were taken over by Rawlings.

If you don't know much about the Easton Professional Collection line of gloves - do some research. These are elite gloves that fly under the radar. If you want to stand out and be a little different from the Rawlings and Wilson guys...this is your chance.

Easton Professional Collection PCK-L73 Japanese reserve kip leather. 12.75" h-web. This kip leather is buttery smooth and lightweight. Beautiful. Brand new with tags. $225 shipped

Easton Professional Collection PCH-F73 hybrid Horween. 12.75" h-web. These were revered for their hybrid Horween and steerhide construction. Brand new with tags. $225 shipped

Easton Professional Collection F73 premium reserve USA steerhide. 12.75" h-web. Game used and ready. Excellent condition. $150 shipped

Who is the Rawlings guru around here?

I picked up this brand new without tags Rawlings PRO-T-FB as I'm a lefty and play outfield. This is essentially the Ken Griffey Jr. glove before/after/during the TB24 era I'm assuming.

The CES01 coding tells me it's Horween (which is awesome) and made in September 1994 if I read that right.

I've yet to see any other information on this exact model online. Can anyone shed some wisdom or knowledge? Thanks!

I haven't played baseball in many years. However, I did grow up playing travel baseball all the way up until highschool.

Fast forward - my daughter started playing t-ball this year and it has reinvigorated my love for the game. I decided it was time to get a nice glove (the gloves I couldn't afford as a kid lol). I've now since joined a local Sandlot league (fast pitch, wood bats, etc) and I've been bitten by the bug.

I played the first week with my existing 14" Rawlings GG Elite softball glove and quickly realized it was way too big. Sold that to help fund my new additions.

I then went down the rabbit hole.

After picking up a few nice vintage HOH, and a Mizuno Pro Limited - I decided to give a Easton Professional a try. Holy moly was/am I impressed. I love how these fly completely under the radar and rival all the elite gloves from other manufacturers.

I now own (4) Easton Professional models and they are all excellent!

EPG89BT (2013 - Okayama Japanese steerhide)

F73 (2019 - premium reserve USA steerhide)

PCK-L73 (2021 - Japanese reserve kip)

PCH-F73 (2020 - Hybrid - Horween/Japanese steerhide)

I have since sold off my Mizuno Pro Limited (made in Haga) in favor of the Easton's I have. I like them that much.

I still have my two vintage Rawlings HOH. Both are classics and I just can't seem to part ways with. PRO C-FC (1995 - Horween) and PRO-T-FB (1994 - Horween).

Anyone else a fan of the Easton Pro line? I feel these don't get the love they deserve - especially for the price point they sell for, and the materials used. They are truly top tier elite gloves.
