The 44 Pro custom is being treated as a collectible given doubts about its game use.

Overview

  • Will Klein revealed a custom Dodger-blue glove from maker 44 Pro that features a Tyranitar Pokémon card stitched into the web.
  • He shared a photo of the mitt on Instagram and later called it “probably now the coolest thing I own,” according to the New York Post.
