A ball and a glove in one. Throw it, catch it, no mitt required.
A good one for your favorite teacher. It won't stay in the desk drawer.
It's not just a ball. You'll know on the first catch.
Four ounces. Enough heft to really throw, light enough to toss all afternoon.
Firmer than foam, softer than a baseball. A missed catch is just a laugh.
Real leather that warms up in your hand and breaks in the more you throw it.
It lands in a bare hand with a soft, solid thwap. No glove, no sting.
Not too hard, not too soft, perfect weight to be able to throw without causing injury or breaking things. Matthew · Glove Tan · ★★★★★
Graded soft, like a good No. 2.
Pencils get graded by how soft they write. The No. 2 is the one everybody filled in bubbles with. So we burned SOFT into the side, dyed the ends eraser pink, and stitched it in green.
You can try to leave it on the desk, but it won't stay there.

People keep throwing it.
It's heavy enough to throw quite a distance but soft enough so that if my grandson misses the catch, it won't break his nose.
I said, “You throw it. And you catch it. No glove required.” … And he got into it. Highly recommended for everyone, including dumb brothers.
My family loves it! No game, no rules, just a ball to toss around.
Brings me back to my childhood. Can't remember a time I didn't play catch with my Dad. Now playing it with my Grandkids.
We're fans for life. Really wish we could get our hands on some of the sold out limited editions though!
Kids loved it. played catch all afternoon.
Will the Pencil come back?
Made once, maybe twice. When this run's gone, the next LPR will be something different.
Can you really catch it bare-handed?
Yes. It's softer than a baseball and sized for bare hands. That's the whole idea.
How big is it?
10.5 inches around and four ounces. Bigger than a baseball, smaller than a softball.
Is it a good gift?
It's the gift that doesn't sit in a drawer. It lives on a desk until someone throws it.
