The perfect combo

Nothing like pairing a nice vintage-looking strap with a broken in A2000.
I guess I have a thing for black & brown combos, especially in leather.

This is for all you middle infielders out there! And for those that question this - don't worry, I only wear the watch while playing catch with my son. It is taken off when I'm playing on Sundays.

Looking good as always, J! Very few things can beat how soft an A2000 can be when broken in the right way.

From a converted OF'er to first baseman, glad to see somebody else enjoys playing.

I'll dig out my bag from my trunk (since we're off this Friday for the holiday) and get a combo pic and check back in later with hopefully a few more entries.

Definitely looking forward to seeing that one-bagger glove!

It's from Geckota. They have pretty good straps at a decent price.

Softest leather I've ever had. Took a while to get her just right!

Really great pictures! (And that's from a Rawlings guy!)

My 36 year old Rawlings SG 96. I bought it back in 1986. It’s well worn and priceless to me.
