As a catcher the only glove that comes with a deep pocket brand new are Japanese catchers mitts all other brands you have to deepen the pocket on your on by break in and just pure use of the mitt

I used to oil my gloves and put them in the oven as kid. Helped really break them in. I have a Mizzuno mitt from the 1990’s, no idea the model number but it’s built like a tank and held up over 30 years. Kinda resembles the MZP-20 pro just off pictures I’ve seen.

@jonathanli594 Месяц назад

I got a brand new catchers mitt in the early 90s and it was hard to close and in 90s money was probably equivalent to the $150 gloves. Once I played catcher on a regular basis was when I able to loosen the glove.

@Wooley_Booger 3 месяца назад

Chris, would the Gamer XLE or the Mizuno be suitable for me to catch softball pitches from my daughter?

@claytonduryee8689 Месяц назад

When I played I used Wilson a2000 or Rawlings pro preferred with 2 in the pinky. Preferred the Rawlings because they were a little softer and had better feel in my opinion but my transfers were quicker with the Wilson and I didn't seem to get thumbed as much. Mizuno and all-stars felt too big and deep. Love the videos! Hope this helps someone.

@KnuxCardDad 5 месяцев назад

Excellent premise. If you can dig up a NOS Rawlings with the metal eyelets. My 8 year old used a crap a360 this past year. He has a nokona, and I bought a NOS $23 piazza 32 for him, and there is nothing like those late 90’s Rawlings mitts. Built like tanks.

@ballgloveking 5 месяцев назад

Tanks indeed!

@KnuxCardCasa 5 месяцев назад

My dad used to catch, he’s is obsessed with catchers mitts. I have a Wilson 360, and a team nokona. But he gets old gloves off eBay that are like brand new, maybe just have sharpie on it. I got a terry steinbach wilson I am moving to now. But we are breaking in a rcm 32.5 Piazza that was new old stock too. Wilson’s pockets aren’t as deep as Rawlings. But they’re a lot more broken in when new. The Rawlings takes real work. The Wilson’s take 15 mins.

@curtiswarnar4322 5 месяцев назад

My son turns 13 at the end of the month. He started catching FT 2 years ago. We started with a Renegade but had the small pocket issue. We upgraded him to a Wilson A1000 and he loves it. Perfect pocket, break in was painless (box break in) and quality materials. He'll likely move to an A2000 or HOH when he moves up to 15U

Is it oke to use baseball catcher mitt to play as catcher in fastpitch softball??

@STLG8GT 4 месяца назад

BGK - gotta tell you, after your gamer xle review for the IF glove, we bought one, and the red/black gamer xle catchers mitt (different colorway, same mitt). Noticed the same performance as you, felt great quality but a shallow pocket and a lot of pop outs. Breaking it in has helped. BUT a HUGE problem - the soft side of the velcro failed before it ever saw game use! Now, i warned my 13yo about NOT pulling and placing the strap alot to avoid wear, and he really left it alone. Didnt matter, the soft side is CHEAP and THIN. I ended up stitching in a replacement panel on a four month old glove. So disappointed. I think this is a deal breaker for an otherwise quality mitt.

@groovygannon 5 месяцев назад

I have had 2 softball catchers in my family. Wilson cheaper gloves have worked great for starting out with small hands. Rawlings highlight is a step up. Not gonna be durable but light for small catcher. She has an R9 fielding glove and if she sticks with it wants a GG elite catchers mitt.

@ballgloveking 5 месяцев назад

Wilson is great for those small hands for sure, definitely a good plan you have going too!

@PaxtonLaznik 5 месяцев назад

@michaeltaylor4271 5 месяцев назад

I’ll say this I feel Rawlings is the OG high end glove maker, and Wilson is a close second and mizuno has caught up a lot in the past few years and now they are pretty comparable. But the custumability that you get with Rawlings is awesome I mean you can customize every single inch of your glove.

@ballgloveking 5 месяцев назад

Customizing small brands is kinda crazy tbh. You can actually change everything whereas mainstream brands let you change MOST. Both are awesome though

@michaeltaylor4271 5 месяцев назад

Dedicated rawlings sandlot review? Btw I use a 44 pro pro 44 infield 11.75 one piece web im just wondering what you would think of the sandlot I have used a Rawlings play prefferd which is the same price as the sandlot but is more of a slow pitch glove the pocket is 2 deep i used it as a cheap backup glove but I want to see if I should give it to my dad and buy a Rawlings sandlot (my dad uses a 1980s cal Ripken glove model he’s looking into a new glove he probably won’t buy one so I want to see a review of the sandlot because honestly your reviews are the best on RU-vid for glove things

@ballgloveking 5 месяцев назад

@SuperWaddle_dee756 5 месяцев назад

Sorry I didn’t make my response clear but I’m at dicks right now and surprisingly they have a sandlot just bought it for 80 it feels way better then I thought it would be when I get home I’ll start my break in I’ve already started the break in brought my mallet in the car but yea btw dicks had the stiffest feeling none broken in gg elite it was stiffer then another one which had the exact same specs what’s that about… for 80 bucks it’s probably going to be a better back up glove I’m confused on which pattern it is but it’s a pretty good feeling pattern (I keep updating this comment btw)

Agree on the All Star @14:50 I bought one to break in for my little league kids because of all the trash the local little league hands out. It took a long time to get it game worthy (I considered a plus). The leather felt good IMO. But I do agree 100% on the thumb loop. I bought a GloveLock which made it slightly more reliable. The single lace is not a good look at all though. You can't take it serious with that.
