Reebok Baseball Glove?

Question

I was looking for a baseball glove when I came across a Reebok glove, this one to be exact- http://www.ballglovewarehouse.com/product.view.aspx?p=7895

I thought it was pretty cool and I was wondering what pro's use Reebok gloves and if you think I should get it. P.S. I really like the look of it.

Answer 1

as for pros that use reeboks, there are a couple pitchers who i have seen that use them. barry bonds was sponsored by reebok, but he just wore reebok cleats and wristbands while he used a wilson A3000 in the field. but for position players i dont recall anyone using a reebok.

personally, i wouldnt get this glove. ive never tried a reebok glove on before, but im pitching in college and have yet to have a teammate who uses a reebok glove nor have i heard good things about reebok.

so id advise you to find a local retailer who sells reebok gloves so you can try it on before you order a glove. ive used rawlings my whole life and dont have a single complaint about them. since i have faith in rawlings i wouldt worry about going to try a rawlings glove on before i bought it. where as for a new glove company that i havent really tried before id want to go try it on to make sure i like how it feels. plus if you want a glove that is used by pros, go rawlings or mizuno.

so my final say, id advise to go look at rawlings, try the heart of the hide series before you try the gold glove series. if you are willing to drop 225 plus on a glove, id highly advise the pro preferred gloves. they are really worth it.

Answer 2

Hey there Grady,

I answered your other question about gloves. I can honestly say I dont know anyone who has used a Reebok glove.

Keep in mind that the way a glove looks should account for about 10% of the reason you buy it.

Keep in mind feel, build, quality, durability, price, etc.

Honestly, the best advice I can give you is to try some on and get a "feel" for the size and some of the features you are looking for.

For example, I personally do not like a "fur" feel on the inside of the wrist strap.

Hope some of this info helps. Good luck in your search. I hope you find a good one!
