Fun story: I actually bought this glove while in Japan, the man that makes them is very kind and prideful about his gloves, his office is in a very unassuming part of outer Tokyo and we just talked shop for a while, he told me I was only the 2nd person ever to personally pick up a glove at his office, he broke in the glove in front of me using the methods showed in the video. The glove is still super stiff but it is so pretty and the leather is high end, and it cost less than 20000 yen which is incredible value imo. If you are reading this, thank you Masa-san for your kindness, I hope to get many more of your gloves in the future.
Yo, I'm going to japan next month and was planning on going to the store/office. Do they have the non custom gloves in stock or do you need to pre-order to pick up?
Any plans to review SSK gloves? With most of their gear it doesn’t seem to get as much coverage. A weird space in the market at the midpoint price point
I second this! I live in the Netherlands and the. closest baseball store (still an hour away) is an ask store. I’ve got a ssk redline outfield mitt that is amazing and an older ssk caters mitt that is great as well. Especially for the price, the gloves have great leather and are made well
This glove is one of the most unique gloves ive seen (MY OPINION). THe web doesnt really matter on a glove and I agree, it's the model and how you shape it. Loving the vids.
Yo i really appreciate the knowledge you share, for someone who has never played and is just getting into playing the game of baseball its really helpful! Thank You !
the easton JR11 is so weird, it plays wayyyyy bigger than 12” I use it in the OF, but it doesn’t really have a great pocket and the thumb stall in kinda flimsy. Looking forward to your vid on it 🙏 (Oniel Cruz is using it at SS atm for the pirates, and of course Jram)
I know, I have one and it’s massive! Gonna be making a video on it soon. I was trying to confirm if Oniel Cruz really is using a JR11, let me know if you have any pictures or sites or anything that would confirm it
@@ballgloveking Sent you what I got on insta, the one jose uses on the field is slightly different then the one easton sells to public, believe oniel uses that one too. Check out the pics, believe would have to be though, only other professional H-web model easton sells in the Kevin Pillar and it’s 12.75”
I watched a Wilson glove day from along time ago, I believe it’s the one where Aso breaks in Brandon Phillips ghost with red welting glove on the same way as BP and he broke the pinky in that way
Posted this on an older video but worth repeating! What are your thoughts on using a massage gun to assist in glove break in? I find that it works like an automated mallet so I can mindlessly sit on the couch holding it in the spots I want and get the same result as if I pounded with the mallet, but do you see any downsides to this approach?
@@loslosthuy it took a while but it feels great. I broke it in with 2 hinges and a monster pocket. It holds shape however you break it in perfectly. Sarna conditioner will be your best friend
@@ryandavis72 nice! How'd you like using this style in the infield? Saw they just released a black one, was interested in purchasing. Not many reviews out on this brand.
@@loslosthuy Feels great on the hand, sucks up balls like a vacuum, dollar for dollar I don't think there is a better glove out there. The leather is beautiful, the break-in does take time since it is pretty "pro stiff" when you get it. If I trusted the hot water process it might have broken in faster but I took my time, and a glove mallet, to make sure it was perfect.
I have a couple questions. First let me thank you for all you do. Love that you don't hide your love for the lord and love you're a dad that still loves to play. If you had to choose one glove to buy for your son in high school. He's a second/shortstop player. What would be your choice? He has a a2000, a 11.25 pro 44 jp11. We just love new gloves. The real reason I ask is he is a single hinge player. We have a toro, this glove and a mizuno. We are open to any.
Super glad you’re enjoying the channel!! Its always hard to pick just one but right now I’d probably go with a Wilson A2K 1786 I’m just a really big fan of the shape of it
I recently ordered a 44 pro and I ordered pro stiff thinking i could break it in not that quick but a least be able to close it in a week or two I’ve just beat it up with a mallet as hard as a could and I still can’t close it do you have any tips?
I need some help asap! So I was catching trying to break in the glove and I dont know how but it somehow got 2 cuts in the pocket💀, Is this a retailer issue or is this glove just that fragile?
@everyone this company is a fraud. The owner stole the logo and the brand, and is trying to make it his own. He's nothing but a theif and a counterfeiter. You've all been douped.

Facx, I like their gloves. Seen them all the time on bullpentraining
Always thought it was weird how little I see SSK on the field

only matters if your a pitcher

No problem my guy!
Have fun in your journey bro!
Love the video. Glove looks unique but sick! Any plans in the works to look at Rico Gloves? I have 3 on order and can’t wait for them to get here.
If Ball Glove King doesn't do a video on them you definitely should!

Hey ball glove king where can I get that glove. I want the exact glove… :)
Go check em out on Instagram and DM him
I saw you recording this video, I was a little too shy to say. Great video as always
great video but if u have a ssk glove can u review it and if u don't it's a pretty popular glove that u should get. Thx
I love the look of that solid web and the color combination. I've been thinking really hard about buying one. Can I just have yours? 😆
I watched a Wilson glove day from along time ago, I believe it’s the one where Aso breaks in Brandon Phillips ghost with red welting glove on the same way as BP and he broke the pinky in that way
Yeah it’s such a tiny thing but seems to make a big difference

More common than you’d think. Just don’t get too mindless and get the same spot too much
Yo this is brilliant! I have gloves. I have a massage gun. Whyyyyyy haven't I thought of this? Much thanks.
Would you say that this glove is of quality of a pro 44? I’m am just curious because of the price point. Thank You!
He says it’s in another league as far as leather quality
Is this glove more “American” with the deep pocket or the stereotypical Japanese glove with a wide flat shallow pocket?
great review! never seen a webbing like that before!
Thanks Mr Rocco
Do a project series where you make your own glove (buy leather and stitch it up)
just bought one of his 11.75 red and black with the v web and it is probably the stiffest glove i have ever purchased but it looks insanely beautiful
How was the break in?

Video 6 asking for a nokona glove review 🙏🏻
I recently ordered a 44 pro and I ordered pro stiff thinking i could break it in not that quick but a least be able to close it in a week or two I’ve just beat it up with a mallet as hard as a could and I still can’t close it do you have any tips?

Trying to order one from the website but can’t read it
Have you ever done reviews on Nokona gloves or anything softball related?
What’s the deal with the thumb loops? Do you not tie them up?
Where did you find that Pro 1000? My favorite glove of all time.
how would you compare Yabai, Buckler, and 44pro?
This would be a great video! Battle of the non-big 3 companies.
I need some help asap! So I was catching trying to break in the glove and I dont know how but it somehow got 2 cuts in the pocket💀, Is this a retailer issue or is this glove just that fragile?
