Introducing the first "position specific" gloves on the market; Nokona's new Bloodline series. There are many new features that are shared in the series that give these new gloves an edge in performance: Prime leather palms for true baseball play; radial piping for rigidity in the fingers; perforated finger liners for cooling; real Shearling wrist pads for comfort; and laminated palms for feel and shape. Our secret lies in our selection of leather. The key to the performance of the gloves is Nokona's rich history of using hides from both steer and cow to kangaroo and buffalo. With this knowledge, we have adapted each glove to its own unique position. Each glove carries its own Custom Tanned, CT leather specific for the position on the field. Example: CT4 leather has the lightweight kangaroo back, Prime� leather palm and shallow pocket in an 11 1/2" pattern crafted specifically for quick hands a 2nd baseman demands and needs. From our lightweight patterns to our CTX, mitt leather, we have built the best glove on the market for each position. Rest assured, whichever choice you make in this series will be the best glove you can find.
