-

Premium Leather & Advanced Engineering
Premium North American Steerhide
Crafted from Premium North American Steerhide, this leather undergoes specialized Japanese selection and treatment.
It provides an exceptional balance of softness for immediate playability and the extreme durability required for professional use.
Structural Innovations
-
Same Leather Inside and Out: The lining is crafted from the same premium steerhide as the shell. This ensures a consistent feel throughout the mitt and significantly extends the equipment's lifespan by preventing internal wear.
-
New U-Back Design: The innovative U-Back construction offers improved flexibility and a snug, ergonomic fit, allowing the mitt to move as a natural extension of the catcher's hand.
-
Reinforced Pinky Support: By strengthening high-stress grip points, this reinforcement enhances stability and prevents the mitt from losing its shape during high-impact catches.
-
Full-Length Finger Stalls: These provide superior coverage and improved comfort, offering better protection and a more secure internal grip for the player.
