The Rawlings Heart of the Hide PROR314U-2CBW combines an 11.5-inch 31 pattern with Rawlings’ ContoUR Fit, giving players with smaller hands a premium infield glove that fits more securely.
ContoUR Fit uses narrower finger stalls and a lowered finger opening to reduce excess space inside the glove. An adjustable wrist system allows the player to refine the fit further. Those changes help smaller hands control the glove without turning it into a soft recreational or entry-level model.
The 31 pattern and I-Web create a controlled infield pocket suited to ground balls and quick exchanges. Its 11.5-inch size offers the maneuverability preferred at second base and shortstop, while the 31 pattern supplies more pocket presence than an extremely shallow transfer-first glove.
Heart of the Hide steerhide provides professional-level structure and durability. The glove is best suited to competitive youth, travel, high-school, and smaller-handed adult infielders who want premium leather but struggle with the fit of a conventional adult glove.
