I believe that 2 tone is Ok. No white or Gray.
Texas plays under NFHS rules. The NFHS two tone thing only lasted one year because basically every glove is two tone. The glove is not suppose to have grey or white on it, which can include the label and stitching. That doesn't mean all gloves are illegal.
Some of the gloves are really bleached out where they almost appear white, but are a very light tan. If the official finds it distracting they can have it removed as well.

Revised Rule: A glove/mitt, worn by the pitcher that includes the colors white or gray, shall be illegal.
Rationale: This change will eliminate the confusion this past season with the legality of two-toned gloves. Glove manufacturers are making two-toned gloves which typically have not been distracting and extremely popular.
