im thinking bout buying a rawling heart of the hide custom glove for 250$ is there that much difference between HOH or pro perfered because if pro perferred is alot better ill go with that and has anyone ever gotten a custom glove before??

both HOH and Pro preffered models are used in the pros, PP are made from kip leather, softer less imperfections, breaks in to a shape a stays that shape, very high quality gloves
HOH are oil tanned and they are good gloves, the leather is hard at first but they break in nicely and keep their shape, do some research and figure out the pros and cons of each leather but the Pro Preffered kip is the best

About a year ago i was also looking for a custom glove. I ended up going with an SSK. Yeah SSK dont have the rep like a Rawlings but if you go to kazumasports.com and read up a bit you will find their top of the line gloves are built the same as a Pro Preffered. Also you can custom fit them to your hand and you also get more options to choose from in terms of color and style. Still a bit pricey at $270 but worth it in my book.
