Thanks for posting this. Love Nokona mitts (my sister, D1 catcher, used them all through high school, college, and “senior ball” after NCAA eligibility (2008,) then passed one down to my daughter who has yet to find anything she liked better. Just grabbed her a new X2-V3250 while we get my sisters old mitt relaced. Single break break in. I use a Nokona 1B mitt for men’s league ball and love it. Since I have a problem with buying gloves I don’t need, I’ve been curious about their gloves - this answered it fairly well (though I only play 1B and RF.) Good to hear they’re improving. I game a Mizuno Pro Select 12.75 that I absolutely love, and picked up an A2K 1775 this year because why not.

The Nokona glove review vid I’ve been waiting for. Thanx man!

I've been using the same nokona glove for over 20 years now. Originally bought it for baseball but I use it to play slow pitch now and I love it.

Keep pumping out great content. I look forward to your vids every week

I've switched positions lately, from 2d to first. I used to wear this nike japanese kip leather for second and I have a very traditional style Nokona mitt now. Nothing fancy (not giraffe or elephant), just top grain steerhide, super high quality material in my opinion. Still in breaking process I love it already. My new fav brand.

Twenty years ago I was reading a magazine article about Nokona. Best part was reading about low income local kids waking up to find a Nokona glove in their front yard.

I love this channel. Would like a top three list from the major brands as far as best, mid tier, and budget level. Hard to know if you can't afford the best what is the next best option

I got a NOKONA Walnut last week and I love it. Idk the last time you tried one but the shape and feel is great

I grew up using nokona, my son has a few. He prefers his rev1x but my preference has always been nokona. He's had his 1st nokona for about 7 years and it's still in great shape

Day 11 of asking for more first base glove content, specifically a top 3 list on the website

Nakona gloves r so good. I had an 11.25 inch glove for over 4 years and it still held it shape. It recently broke but they still are very good gloves. It starts very stiff but becomes very soft after you start using it

Your content is great brother keep it up !!

its funny watching this as a former PO, i loved only being broken in pocket and squeez. i never thought about infielders behind me hating tbh

Let’s goooo been living the videos recently

freshly cleaned batting gloves feel so good. used conditioner cause i got a blood stain on my franklins and i wanted to clean them. after a day of drying they felt brand new

Chris the glove guy with another banger

You should tour their factory sometime. It is pretty neat.

Also may I add, homie rocking the Sandlot P.F. Flyers as well!!

The Japanese calfskin Nokona uses is really nice. Haven’t had a problem with my edge x… mine is also an H web

Been waiting for this I’ve been wanting to pull the trigger on an edge X for a while

my nakona. from when i was 10. kangaroo skin was stolen from me.... sad day. That was about 10 year ago. i miss it to this day. I got a rawlings HOH trapeze 12.75. RIP

I recently ordered a custom Nokona classic with Japanese calfskin throughout with extra padding and tight on the wrist. Will be interested in testing how well it cradles a hardball and slowpitch

I remember when they were like $100 back in the day, pretty wild!

I’d love to see a comparison between a regular HOH and a Horween HOH. I know ballgloves sells the Horween ones. Thanks man!

Hi, great commentary buddy. I have a Nokona super soft 11.75 alpha with a H web. I was wondering if you have ever caught with this glove and what do you think. I'm not a fan of the I web either. I also have a heart of the hide wing tip Rawlings that has that web though it has a tighter spacing than the Nokona and I have not had a ball get stuck in the web yet but close. Thanks

Damn! Ya that's exactly why I only have one glove with an I-web and I use it on rainy days

Really rooting for Nokona

Hopefully they do some more slow pitch stuff too. I’d love to see a 13” H web slowpitch glove made by Nokona

w videos looking forward to some more mlb players glove vids

Can you please review the B45 gloves? They're pretty well known for their bats but interested in what their gloves are like as they're also a 🇨🇦 company

Yes. They’re phenomenal.

I would love to see a review of the bloodline edge, im considering of buying one. Also would be nice if you could not skip stuff like tightening the web and do it on camera

What brand and model is the glove that you showed, where you stated the guy is now designing for Nokona?

I had a Kangaroo catchers mit by them that was absolutely unbelievable. I'd love to buy another glove by them sometime

Be curious to know what your opinion is of the Marucci C2

which Wilson model is that that you showed when you described the glove getting bullied?

I'm just a pitcher but my nokona 2010 AMG 1200 Bison is still as good as they day i got it. Just had to do a relace but nothing else in terms of repairs

Please do a vid on the Rawlings breakout series

I modeled my first 44 pro glove after the glove you shot

can you do a review on the Shoeless Joe 1957 or the 1949 model baseball glove?

100% worth it for anyone not on the pro level. You see a lot of pitchers use it at the MLB level because they're comfortable, and they don't see a lot of action when it comes to catching high velocity balls. But for us filthy casuals, the gloves can and will last a lifetime. They're super comfortable, easy to break in, SMELL GREAT, and are just so well crafted. Get one if you want to treat yourself.

Ya thats been my complaint about nokona. The flext back. Maybe stiffer inserts are needed? I love the brand though. Where apuld you rank it on a aa aaa mlb

Nokonas are great for Pitchers and youth players... but they need to change things if they're gonna play with the big boys Rawlings/Wilson

I got a firstbaseman mitt from nokona and i've only had to replace the laces once in my years of having. Used it through all of highschool and my summer and fall ball. Used it in practice too.Would recommend

If I'm not mistaken these are all hand made, so the laces being a tad loose from Nokona, I really don't think tightening the laces is that big of a deal, to me that's like "tuning" or "tailoring" a glove to your liking.. idk thats rhe only part that I didn't agree with really, like I said hand made glove anything is possible, and I don't think they are catching baseballs with every glove they made so who knows maybe it seems tight at factory but once you start putting pressure on the laces is when it starts to come undone, idk just seems like a small issue that would have a logical explanation, and its really not that big of a deal at the end of the day to tighten the laces

What do you think? It’s a really good travel ball 12 U glove

Any videos of 1st baseman gloves???

Nicole would be OK if there was no rollings Wilson or a bunch of those Japanese brands. Even Jack is awesome. We also have to like the look of the Nona gloves. I’m not really that dark brown leather. Kind of looking to me.

Yo I have a dirty soft 44 glove do you think you could work on it?

Do you think it could be that the I web is too skinny at the top? The square that the ball is going through is too big. Not every glove company makes their I web the same. Maybe that could be it

Glove Lab 🔥🔥🔥

Nokona was always a super popular softball glove company trying to succeed in the baseball space and couldn’t compete.

I miss the old school nokona style

I love my walnut nokona :(

Can you please try a R2G catchers mitt from Rawlings please please please or any r2g

It’s satisfying seeing the edge x fail. I hate that nokona tried to charge this much for gloves.

The Nokona Edge X I tried out at Charlie Rose was pretty dang cool, I have to admit. While $1,000 is pretty steep I understand why a company like Nokona may have the leverage to charge for a glove with that kind of craftsmanship

What's the advantage of the I web?

idc what position I'm playing, H web and Trapeze are always my go-to web options. they feel so much more stable than any other web.

Can you review warstic gloves?

Nokona Fan here, the reason they are so popular & expensive is because they are mostly made in America. You can be happy that the money you are spending is going right back into pockets of families who work on them. I have 3 gloves from them now including a dropped edgeX and they are great! They have a passion for American Baseball and position their products correctly. People now do not understand that American Made products are simply more expensive because of how our economy works. I would rather spend money knowing its helping my neighbor instead of it disappearing into china.

Do you have video on jl glove co.? Link appreciated

Would a different web-style help the EdgeX?

I just bought one from walnut series and it was $400. Worth every cent. When you want quality go Nokona.

3:37-3:42 Thats what she said !u can jus slide it in without even thinking about it,Lets Go ! 2 in the pinky!

Austin Riley review pls

What’s the gray glove at 11:40?

SIMPLY THE BEST MADE RIGHT HERE IN TEXAS!

You should get a nokona American bison

Infielder will look pretty with the $1k EdgeX... then look pretty bad as the balls go through him. Dreams of owning a $1k glove were just decimated. Also, I thought top middle infield prefer stiff gloves for quick transfers?

Try Bradly gloves

Can you please do a video of the absolutely ridiculous icecream glove

I have a question about 44, I saw your video about you comparing the ex10 to the A2k and saying the A2k was better, but do you think that the ex10 44 is better than the a2000

Only glove I will buy

I remember when Nokona gloves were $180 for the kangaroo skin gloves

please try the BMC brand its made in korea

I love my nokona

When is the next video

Any recommendations for youth baseball gloves. His single A league uses a pitching machine. My son is 6 years old but tall for his age. 10.5 seems like a good size for him. We tried an 11 Inch glove, but it seems too big. He also had difficulty closing the 11-inch glove. But I don't know which glove brand to go with. Any recommendations, please ?

U da best

First like and comment And I love this guy

Wait, what's the glove at 11:40??? You say it's one of your favorites then don't tell us what it is?

18 years ago I bought a 12" closed web Nokona, needless to say I still use it to this day. These things are forever-gloves.

Nakona is just too expensive I'd probably buy Rawlings Or save up and get a Wilson

Day 1 of asking for u to review rico gloves

Remember when the only people who wore dirty hippie sandals in socks were grandpas??

Bat Bro Will is starting a company?

Yo man, I ordered a 44 custom glove because of your videos. 15 weeks later and still no glove and they won't answer any emails 😢.

Can you do a Acuna Jr glove video

Was never a huge fan of Nokona. I had one in high school and used it for one season and that’s exactly what happened to it. It softened up way too quick and for a first baseman’s glove taking hard throws constantly I didn’t like it. I used strictly Wilson A2000 after that for my regular glove to pitch and my first baseman’s glove.

Its japanese calf skin in the palm im pretty sure. not american kip

I had a nokona 11.5" and after one season it turned into a pancake and I ended up getting an A2000 instead

I've never been a fan of Nokona gloves. I would love to support American, but they just aren't stiff enough for me. I'd rather spend half the price and get a custom pro preferred

We looked at these for my son but for $1000? Nah.... Maybe in High School if he's still loving baseball. $300 is kinda the high max for us atm.

Put a basket weave web on it

Fly out to center field we lose!!!😂

Imagine paying $1200 for a glove just to have the ball go straight through. Ouch.

2 in the pink, 1 in the stink. Amen.

Sooooo is 2 in the pinky better in junction with 1 in the stinky? Or should you leave the stinky alone and just shove 2 in the pinky?

Thought a custom 400$ glove was expensive😂
