2026 Icon The Chosen One BBCOR Launch: FAQ

The first-ever one-piece Icon BBCOR is dropping on 2/24. Get more info on the new bat and our VIP launch process by clicking an FAQ below.

 How Is The Chosen One Different from the Icon?

The Icon Chosen One delivers the same In/Tense carbon composite tech as the traditional two-piece Icon, but comes in a seamless one-piece design. This lets hitters who crave a one-piece feel take advantage of the Icon's legendary barrel response and forgiveness.


 How Do I Get the New Icon Chosen One?

We'll release the Icon Chosen One in all BBCOR sizes on 2/24, and retailers nationwide will release the bat the following day. Inventory on launch day will be extremely limited, so the best way to secure yours is to sign up for VIP access on Rawlings.com, which you can do here. Signing up will get you exclusive access to the bat on the morning of 2/24, before the public launch. Follow us on Instagram to get sneak peeks of the bat!


 Will the Icon Chosen One Be Released In Other Certifications?

The Icon Chosen One also comes in a -10 USA baseball edition. There is not currently a USSSA version, but you can still find the top-rated two-piece Icon USSSA bat here!


 What Does VIP Access Get Me?

At 9:30 Eastern on launch day, 2/24, VIPs will get a link to a virtual waiting room 30 minutes before the public website launch. Once the bat goes live, everyone in the waiting room will be given priority access in a virutal queue to get their bat. Anyone who joins after will go to the back of the virtual queue.
