44 pro baseball gloves are known for being the cheapest custom gloves on the market. I actually have about 10 44's myself. Their gloves are great for the price, but are they worth you buying? My simple answer is yes and in this video I show you everything I have learned from 44's gloves. Each one of my gloves has a different special feature on it that makes it stand out from the last. I enjoy doing this because it allows me to slowly try every new feature that 44 offers. The only problem is that 44 has continued to come out with new features and is making it so hard for me to keep up with! In my opinion that's a good problem to have though.
So 44 Pro Gloves are awesome gloves but they are not perfect. In the end if you want the best gloves possible it is simply going to come from on e of the established major brands like Rawlings, Wlison, Mizuno etc.44 has simply changed the game by offering a custom baseball glove for under $200 dollars whereas other companies sell theirs for $350 or even $450.

ordered one a month ago with the intentions of having it for christmas, but gave myself allowance of about a month and a half just incase something made me unhappy and i had to send it back. very happy with the outcome, although the flag stamp on the thumb is a bit hard to see with printed leather. definitely recommend if you have a creative mind and want a medium priced glove

I think 44 is perfect for pitchers, a good way to express yourself with a custom look, but you aren’t to hindered by the quality, because you aren’t consistently making plays with the glove.

Because I grew up in the '60s, I thought I'd share a good laugh with you guys. My first glove cost me all of. . $5. That's right, sports fans. It was an "Al Kaline" black model. Not even sure who made it. I paid 50 cents a week on a payment plan from Western Auto. Our little town didn't even have a sporting goods store. I loved that glove and used it until I got to HS. I played college ball and a couple of years in A ball, then later continued to play amateur baseball until I was 50. My "go to" glove was the Wilson A2000. I know it cost under $75. A couple of years back, for fun, I was walking through the glove dept at Dicks Sporting Goods. Picked up a Wilson A2000. Price. .$325. I just held it on my hand. Now I know what it feels like wearing something "gold". The times have changed things for sure. Oh, btw, while some around me still used mules to plow their cornfields when I grew up, I'm happy to say that cars DID use gasoline.

@@ballgloveking Glad you enjoyed it. I share your appreciation for a good ball glove. I don't have to apologize about being a "fossil" because I am one but it's true, the baseball glove often plays pivotal roles in life. Many a father started his kid out with a good "catch". In the movie "Field of Dreams", the scene involving Kevin Costner being able to have a catch with his father who "comes back to life" is one of the most powerful ever. It makes the movie complete and solidifies the link between father and son using an item most every little boy gets. . a baseball glove. In time, I hope you have a couple of sons. With your cache of gloves, you'll need "catchers" to use them all. Keep 'em oiled.

Purchased a 44 Glove, a size 11 for a young player. Have worked on it for hours and hours, little to no improvement. I can't recommend this glove, the price was attractive, and the website worked well, it just won't loosen up. I purchased an R9 Rawlings 11.25 at the same time, broke in perfectly with reasonable attention. My 44 is a great looking glove that will never see the ball field.

I know Rawlings gloves will stand the test of time, but for $506.00 is really ridiculous especially when you can’t customize everything, the lack of colors and options. Wilson is worse, but they have the custom options people look for. Without tax a custom Wilson is $549.00

Have you noticed the 574 model not being the size advertised? I have a pro 44 and a 574 both supposedly 12 3/4". The 574 feels way better on my hand, but is also 3/4" shorter than they claim. They said it's supposed to be that way, but my pro 44 is exactly 12 3/4" and the 574 is 12" when taking standard measurement.

I’ve bought 3. I like one of them. Definitely don’t go with a c2. I just bought one of those out of curiosity and was very let down. But at $120 I don’t know what I expected. They say the C2 is like a heart of the hide. I have 2 heart of the hides and the c2 isn’t even in the same ball park. The pro customs I have are ok. Not on the level with Wilson a2000 or HOH despite being marketed as good as a pro proffered. If they never compared their gloves to HOH and Pro Proffered I wouldn’t be making those comparisons at all but I am just for you all so you know.

What exactly seems low quality and what model did you get, Signature or C2? Also friendly reminder that they are significantly cheaper and part of the reason is because the gloves are less consistent when it comes to overall perfection. So it’s a great option for those who can’t afford the other more expensive brands. But 44 is not the best glove to get whatsoever

I’d go with 12.5 or even 12.75 if your comfortable with a glove that big at second. In softball the ball is so big that it doesn’t make a huge difference when it comes to transfers so I’d say you might as well go big and go with something like 12.5”

Thanks so much for the video. Out of curiosity how do the 44 gloves play in sizing compared to Rawlings and A2000. I play mens softball with a 12” ball and the 13” Bryce Harper HOH felt small for my liking. I also ordered a A2000 13.5 inch (Model 135SS) and it felt about the same size as the Rawlings 13” HOH…small. I wanted something that played about .5 inch bigger than the two gloves mentioned and had a deeper pocket. Do you think the Pro 44, 13.5 inch, Softball, H-web would suit me well given the info above?

My experience has been that they play true to size so a 13.5” should work and yes the H web is the best web in my opinion!

Love the channel. I was wondering what you think about 44 VS Rico youth glove. My son has a A2000 11.25 Pedroia fit now and he loves it. I am looking for a quality gloves for when he plays the outfield 11.75. I already looked into Rawlings and Wilson gloves in that size for youth players, and they don’t have any, so I was thinking about going with the 44 or Rico. Thanks.

Rather get something that feels more quality on the hand .

I understand what you mean, I’ve seen a ton of 44’s and the problem is more to do with the person breaking it in. With that being said it may not be the case for the ones you’ve seen lol you could have gotten super unlucky. Companies like Wilson and Rawlings do better at making a glove that feels pretty good even if it was broken in terribly

@ballgloveking
@ballgloveking 3 жыл бұрын
Well it mostly comes down to what position you play. Typically you would get something around 11.25 or 11.5 on the infield but in the outfield I would recommend getting either 12.5 or 12.75. If you are getting a 44 you could try requesting a tighter hand stall or if you’re getting a Wilson you should get one that has the “Pedroia fit” which means it’ll have a tighter wrist/ hand slot

Granted, it could still be a Texas thing since they're out of Nokona, TX, but I would've figured they'd be more popular today based on how it was back in the 90s and early 00s.
