 GLOVESMITH'S new Custom Elite and Elite are the ultimate in fielding equipment. Together they signify a new era in ball glove production.
We have scoured the country to find the select materials from which to make a limited quantity of the finest gloves ever created. To start with, flawless steerhides are cut and carefully stitched together. Then stuffed with genuine needled wool, which provides unsurpassed padding. Finally, each glove is outfitted with our exclusive metallic gold labels and choice rawhide laces.
We did not just stop at using the best materials; for added durability each glove is pattern split and bend cut. The attention to detail of each glove is unmatched. From the triple stitching of the full grain leather welting, to the final hand pounding and forming of each glove, the exceptional craftsmanship of our small shop in Missouri is truly demonstrated in both our Custom Elite and Elite Series. Finally, each glove is outfitted with exclusive metallic glove labels and individually registered and numbered for true distinction.
