“Looks sharp given the limited number of options with this model. Ordered the 50% break-in and it's still pretty stiff. Nice and thick in the palm to cut down on stings. Only wish would be for the pocket to be a little deeper but maybe that's because it's the 12.5" size.”
“Needed a new glove, thought I would go custom, nothing fancy. Picked 44 over Rawlings based on me being from San Diego and 44 being a San Diego based company. I wanted the most broken in option, but when I received my glove, it was as stiff as a board. I went back to my order and saw I selected ultra stiff by mistake. I emailed 44 customer service and said I made a mistake ordering ultra stiff, and would like to send back the glove to be broken in. The response from customer service was they don't offer glove break in service and sent me youtube videos on how to break in a glove. I bought the glove from 44 and they wouldn't accept it back to break it in. I offered to pay for shipping. The basic personalization was good and the glove does appear to be well made.”
“The custom 44 glove is amazing, as always. My initial purchase for my grandson was a fielding glove. He loved it and it is very well built, so I returned a few years later to purchase him a 1st base glove. Same excellent quality, feedback as it is being built, and great QA and shipment. I won’t buy a glove from any other company now. Thank you”
“I'm a former D1 turned men's league player. The quality plus customization for the price that 44 offers is great. I even spoiled myself and got batting gloves. Although my infield glove was a custom $400 build from another company, I'm just as happy with my first ever 44 1B glove.”
