I've been a Nokona fan for more than 20 years, with 3 different gloves all still in the family, and all still in the game.
About a month ago I started playing regular first base on a senior men's softball team. Never needing a 1st base glove, I went Nakona shopping on-line. I found\ordered an X2-N70 Elite 13" 1st Base Glove. It was billed as game-ready, and they were pretty much right.
I received the glove via Big Brown on a Tuesday afternoon. On Wednesday night I was able to get in about 30 minutes of "break-in" time bending, twisting, and adjusting. Then on Thursday morning I played catch for about 10 minutes, followed by a double header. That's as close to a game ready glove as I've seen. No hot water, no steam, no oil and no oven. The best part is the more it's used, the better it will get.
Thanks guys for another great product!

X2 Elite™
FULL GRAIN
STEERHIDE
Premium-grade, full-grain Steerhides, sourced from American ranchers and tanned to our long-standing specifications. Our Buckskin Stampede™ leather is infused with proprietary oils and waxes for a soft and pliable, yet dense feel.
AUSTRALIAN
KANGAROO
Sourced from wild-range Australian kangaroos, Nokona has been making gloves with this unique leather for over 50 years. Kangaroo is a high-performance and specialized leather that is stronger and lighter-weight than any other ballglove leathers at the same thickness. Kangaroo fibers interlock for greater strength, this leather is soft and flexible, and resists the effects of perspiration. When combining Kangaroo Leather with our Steerhides, we call it Buckaroo™.
