I’ve only purchased two items from 44 Pro! One was an infield glove the my son loved and used for 6-7 years until the color wore off and the leather was so broken in it began to lose the padding. Great investment. The other was a new xp alloy bat that he wasn’t crazy about but I bought it because of a special that was running! He may have tried a custom one but this one was just the plain silver with elephant grip! We recommend 44. Good quality work!
