Vinci NEW Limited Series TJ1952-L Softball Glove

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

TJ1952-L_Bordeaux-Back_View-Web-BIGThe TJ1952-L is dedicated to the memory of Timothy Jones, a hard working truck driver, husband, father and hero! Tim battled cancer for 21 months after being diagnosed with two good months. During Tim’s battle, Mark Jones, his son, started purchasing Vinci products. Pete Vinci, president of Vinci became Mark’s mentor as Pete had helped his father, Benjamin Vinci (whose signature is in every Vinci glove) battle with ALS/Lou Gehrig’s disease. Because of this Mark had become more involved in the Vinci company. While Tim was still with us, Pete had started working on a softball specific glove and needed some input. He asked the opinion of Tim. Pete’s blueprint with Tim’s input became the TJ1952-L, a 13.5 inch H-web built like a Mack truck!

Unfortunately, Tim never saw the official release of the TJ1952-L as we lost Tim to his battle with cancer on March 22,2010. However, his name will be remembered by many as the TJ1952-L model is named after him.

MAKE THE PLAY!

The TJ1952-L is the glove softball players have been waiting for! Beautifully designed and handcrafted with 13.5 inches of high quality 5oz Kip leather.Kip Leather is known for its durability, softness and weight. Our Kip Leather is roughly 20% lighter then our US steer hide model gloves, breaks in much faster and yet retains its shape longer. The TJ1952-L features a dual post web and flex-closed back. Available in either right-handed or left-handed thrower in 4 stunning colors, Black, Bordeaux, Blue and Red. As part of our Limited Series the TJ1952-L is a limited addition that has been added to the line for a short amount of time. We utilized sheepskin finger linings which are found on the top of the line gloves, put a solid palm pad in thee for beefed up protection where you need it most. The leather is pre-treated to allow for quicker break in time, and with all of that still have a glove that is one of the lightest on the market today.

Don Clatterbough is one of only 31 men in the National Softball Hall of Fame (Men’s Slow Pitch category). He has over 4,000 career home runs and a .725 career batting average playing against some of the top talent in the country.  He was a member of the legendary Steele’s softball team. That team was considered one of the best of all time. Pete Vinci has played against him many times. Pete says “Clatter” is still one of the best hitters around.  His choice of batting gloves are the Vinci Bones. “Clatter” has said they are the best he has ever used.
