Not generously-sized for the adult man's hand like my Nokona X2-1200 and my Nokona W-1300. Difficult to put on, and difficult to squeeze the ball without pressure from the strap across the back of my hand, even with the Velcro substantially loose. I'm going to give it a week or two and try to break it in without playing it. I'll be sad if it needs to be returned because, otherwise, it's a well-made glove. Perhaps, though, it's intended for little leaguers and not full-grown men.

Wow! This is a beautiful glove and was definitely worth the wait! My 13 year old son received this as a gift from his Nana and I don’t think it’s left his hand since he opened the box. I just can’t get over the craftsmanship. I have a Nokona softball glove and I think, if cared for correctly, these gloves could be passed down for generations. Once again, we were not disappointed. Amazing job!

I've had many a glove in my life before and since my championship winning little league team decades ago, in the 70's but during a recent trip to Goetz Bros I decided on trying a good ol' American made glove. With memories of my dad and baseball in my youth, I had my sights set on Nokona and sure enough there where a few there.
After trying on two or three I happened upon the X2 Elite and immediately fell in love. It literally "fits like a glove"! I quickly noticed it becomes an extension of your hand unlike most bargin buy gloves you find today. The leather is soft and supple and hugs your hand, sucking it in the pocket with a firm assurance of control. My hand feel like it's melding with the glove. My R brand glove on the other hand is always shifting and makes me feel like it's sliding off. I'm always messing with it. Not this glove! I can actually concentrate on the game while having my hand in any position without the feel of it sliding off.
Break in period? With this particular glove there is no break in period. You can jump in a game or practice right away and it feels like it's an old glove that's been well taken care of with Nokona's amazing blend of glove conditioner.
This is by far THE best glove I've had in my 50 years. Very glad I was able to find this gem. It'll be a proud member of the family I can hand down to my own little leaguers as they grow. Even sent a pic to my dad! Thank you Nokona for making a finely crafted, American made baseball glove.

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™.
