Inspired by Nokona's history of handcrafting ball gloves in America for over 85 years, the proprietary Walnut Crunch leather is a Nokona signature. This glove provides great stability, durability, and a game-ready feel. The classic Walnut series has been updated to highlight the glove's modern features, while also paying tribute to Nokona's long-standing baseball and softball heritage. Since 1934, in Nocona, Texas, premium Nokona ball gloves have been handcrafted by skilled American workers, using the world's highest quality leathers. Nokona gloves are individually cut, stamped, stitched, laced, and embroidered, which gives each one its own unique identity and feel. Today, Nokona is focused on the future, applying many of the same principles that have guided our past – quality, craftsmanship, innovation, integrity, and a commitment to our employees, suppliers, customers, and our country. We continue to put classic American workmanship into every glove, using techniques developed over the past 85+ years.
