In this episode we are joined by Nokona Ballgloves Executive Vice President, Mr. Rob Storey. We discuss everything from the origins of the company to the manufacturing methods that they use today. We also talk about some of his favorite baseball memories, including meeting Nolan Ryan and even a trip to the White House. ******************************************** Company History (taken from the company website www.nokona.com) Since 1934, in Nocona, Texas, premium ball gloves have been handcrafted by skilled American workers, using the world’s highest quality leathers. Many of these people have dedicated their lives to producing the finest baseball and softball gloves, so that each glove can be used with confidence and pride. 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.
