It took me breaking 5 $30-50 gloves in the first 2 years of high school to convince my parents that I needed an actual glove. I was a first baseman with a shortstop throwing 88-93 across the diamond and they thought I “broke them on purpose”. Got 2 $230 heart of the hide gloves (one 1B and one IF) and I am still using them in men’s league 8 years later with just the occasional re-lace. Worth the money easily.
Bought a $300+ dollar glove when i was younger than you back in the 90’s. Used it heavily for at least 15 years and then less frequently as life got in the way of playing. Coach at my kid’s school now and “lost” it a year ago. It was shockingly emotional to the point I had tears in my eyes. It’s crazy the things you think of and the memories you have attached to an object. Looked and looked then finally broke down after a couple weeks and ordered a similar glove which was over $400 now and then promptly found the original, in a box IN MY TRUCK! Lol
@Corey Gonzo you want to be woke so bad stfu. It obviously wasn’t no regular “material object” it held memories and was apart of something he loves/loved.
My father bought me a Wilson A2000 glove in 1980. Now my son, who is 11 years old, uses that same glove. Yes the inside of the glove has worn out some over the years, but it’s still structurally sound. If you take good care of these gloves, they can last a very long time. I believe that it was around $100 back in 1980. Well worth the price in my opinion.
I've heard harder to break in gloves also deteriorate slower and last much longer because higher quality material is usually a little tougher to loosen up.
As someone who learned the game with a 30$ there is something to be said about working through the faults of the cheap glove. When you know the web won’t support the ball or even broken you get that second hand up.
The $30 glove would probably be OK with a re-lace job or at least re-lace the pocket. I'm looking hard at getting a custom catchers mitt from 44 gloves for around $200 + give or take depending on how you'd like to embellish it and later a fielders glove, they have many styles and pocket designs to choose from not to mention all of the colors that you pick yourself like main color, web color, stitching, lacing etc.
I can relate to the tasting the glove. Nothing better than the taste of pure leather strings! 😄 At first I didn't take this video seriously as I thought we wouldn't see any decent comparison, just some amateurs goofing around. But it was very entertaining and actually did demonstrate the differences more than I expected. Kudos
There has to be at least one person like me who barely knows anything about baseball but still watches this kind of videos because he’s the one making them
The smell of the leather glove combined with the smell of freshly cut grass slightly damp from when the sprinkers that watered the infield last night. The sound of your cleats as you take your first practice swings when you dig in on opening day. This nothing better than the sounds, smells and sights of opening day, the sound of a ball hitting the sweet part of your bat when you know for sure it is leaving the park, the smell of those hot dogs that you can only get at a ballpark and the sights of the stands on opening day. Baseball the greatest sport ever, the only sport that celebrates the beginning of it's season, OPENING DAY
In 98. I started working for the BNSF. I was asked to play on the rail baseball team. I only played hockey my whole life. Baseball was just something I did in the summer with my cousins. I went to MC Sports in Chicago and bought a 40 buck Rawlings. Still have the glove and play catch with it often. Odd how someone can get attached to a thing. But I love that glove lol
I'm still using my brother's hand me down A2000 from like 15 years ago. Works great! Extremely broken in at this point, which some people don't like, but I've always liked that.
As a kid in the 70's I played using a cheap Spalding glove from the department store, didn't know any better and couldn't afford it if I did. I outgrew the first glove and searched all over to find one that felt right. Around that time I found a softball glove that the school my neighbor worked at was throwing away, (he brought a dozen or so gloves home and gave them to the kids on the block). I ended up with a bright red full grain leather glove that fit my hand well, I changed up the lacing a bit around the pocket and hand closure and starting using it. I used it for years, and still have it. I replaced it in high school with a pro glove an ex player gave me, (Also a neighbor at the time), I used that in Babe Ruth league in high school for a bit but ended up going back to the old softball glove. It just fit me better and I liked how it trapped the ball better. I haven't played anything more than catch or the occasion weekend game at a barbecue in 30 years, but still keep that old softball glove handy. It sits on a table in my home office. I never took to the new glove and didn't play as well with it. It fit me fine but it wasn't comfortable and the hinge crease didn't want to be where I wanted it to be. I think I later found out that the glove I liked best was a $12 model from some school sports supply house back then. I found out they were donated and the school didn't have a softball team so they sat around for a few years and got tossed. Somewhere I've got another one that never got played, one of these days I suppose it'll turn up again.
I used to have that $30 glove it was the best thinking glove I’ve ever had it was amazing it sit with me about two years and when it finally broke my parents made a lamp out of it
You should try it next time with a $30-60 raulings glove, because I’ve gone through lots of glove and the threads wear out on me and I’m always rethreading but it’s not like the gloves were cheap but after I grew out of them I ended up getting one of these and it’s been with me for a while now and it’s doing well
@@matthewschmiege yeah I got the same exact glove a month ago and it was 50 bucks. And last weekend I passed by target sporting good isle and well I'll be damned there was two rawlings gloves and they were 13 bucks. I bought them both and they feel incredible.
I used to have a 60$ glove and it worked pretty well and still in good condition and it lasted 5 years but I got a 250$ glove and it’s been amazing I’ve been sticking with mizuno my whole life and it’s awesome Mizuno,Wilson and SSK are great glove options
Most I’ve ever spent was $550 CAD on a glove but realistically the benefits stop after around the $150 range and it becomes a question of added durability and added comfort. Yeah there is some solid gloves for sub $200 but the fit and finish on the high end stuff is incredible
May not want to buy a $30 glove but you can get a glove that will last a lifetime for $75 or so easily. $300 for a glove is crazy and definitely not needed. It’s basically just a flex for rich kids trying to look like pros.
Yo u know wats funny I've watched him a year then he stopped making baseball vids so I stopped watching him now I'm back a year later seeing wat he uploaded
LIFE HACK if you need to restring your glove and want the strings to taste good a get on the glove easier put in salt water. As he said, the salter the better
I definately see the value of a really expensive glove. I may just play reck baseball, but even in the 15-18 age group that I'm in, my $60 glove is doing just fine. It has lasted me about 4 years now and it's just fine. My only gripe would be that it got flimsy after about a year or two, so pop-ups that I a little over run will hit the tip and flip out, or some scoops will hit the bottom of the glove, and flip out. One last issue with it is that the padding is mediocre. Besides that though, the glove is fine. Overall, a $60 glove isn't bad.
Love this video kid! My sons 10, has a very nice broken in 2 yr old mizuno, 50$! He loves it, i said after this year it might be serious quality glove time! Anyways, i’m a 43 yr old single dad, so maybe you can imagine my interest in sport investments as it has to count once its been thought and bought! Appreciate your content! Btw, just yesterday i was 18 playing ball! Now at 43, i’ve had 6 knee scopes, couple hand surgeries and 3 full tommy-john surgeries! Appreciate your youth and WARMUP ALWAYS!
For people who don’t have 300 on a good glove, 44 pro gloves range from 149-190 depending on the model and what you add but they’re completely customizable!

@@Joe-gt5lw Thank you brother. There’s always a few people out there that have to weigh in with their smart ass comments.
I have learned from this video to never let the Lapp bros loose in a target...
Best sounds in baseball :
1. Hitting a baseball right in the dead center of the bat
2. Cleats on concrete
3. THEN the ball on the mitt
I hate cleats on concrete for some reason
Sound of wood bat > metal bat
Also when you hit the scoreboard on a HR which IK is “rare” but it feels/sounds so good
Ice is just casually hanging off a fence...
