Nokona, Kimera 11.5 inch Glove Review

What a great glove. It's made of high quality leather. The cowhide is rich and sturdy, the kangaroo leather on the back of the glove is soft and supple. It took about two weeks of playing catch to get it decently broke in, but still has a way to go until it's good and broke in. Putting it on, it felt a little tight at first but the glove molded itself to my hand perfectly (so well in fact that I won't let anyone else put it on, even for a second).

Playing, this glove is fast and light. I have no problems picking up a grounder (as I did with my much larger Rawlings 13 inch glove) and picking the ball out of the glove is a snap (again much faster than my Rawlings). I cannot recommend this glove enough. If you're considering it, go for it!
