The Texas Bucket List - Nokona Baseball Glove Factory in Nocona

We came across business that's been around for generations that makes all american baseball gloves and it just so happens that you won't find another glove factory anywhere else in America.

    I have a Nokona that is 25 years old, bought it as a kid with my own money, a ton for a kid that long ago. So worth it, best damn glove ever. Still take it out all the time condition it and work it a bit. Other than the logo worn off it looks better than brand new. Just an amazing piece of American craftsmanship.

    Nokona is absolutely my favorite brand of glove. I can’t think of many things I love more than the smell of my glove!

    I'm patiently waiting on my Nokona glove to come in the mail. If this Covid19 pandemic has taught me anything, it's taught me to support small businesses throughout the U.S. and local. This small town Ohio boy will wear that ball glove with small town Texas pride. Thank you for your patriotism to this country and it's people. God bless!

    Set an example for your kid. Buy he or she an American made mitt, and show them the value of buying something made here that exemplifies quality. This is how you get the word out about a smaller company that deserves to be higher profile. Wilson, Rawlings have sold-out by moving their mfg. to china. Nokona has resisted the temptation, and takes pride in their craftsmanship These are neat gloves. Your kids will thank you . Out.

    I've visited the factory twice, once in the old factory with my Dad back in 2016, and just this August of 2021 at the new factory attached to the Nocona Boot factory. I love Nokona gloves, and the huge, wooden American Indian head is a "shot" you'll always want to take if you go! Wahi' Valleys

    you buy them the crap gloves or used nokona before 12. at about 13 years old you can pretty much tell if theyre going to be any good. thats when you buy them the Nokona. It's a glove you keep for life. I just got mine re-laced, its twenty years old.

    Nokona gloves are every bit as good as Rawlings and Wilson gloves. They’re just too small of a company to do big merchandise deals with high profile players. I got one three years ago and I like it better than my trusty old Wilson A2000 which, you could argue, is the best glove ever made.
