SHOELESS JOE BASEBALL CATCHER’S MITT
Professional Series – 32-Inch diameter catcher’s mitt is made from 100% Steerhide leather, using our unique tobacco tanning process. The 32-inch catcher’s glove is designed to better accommodate the pre-teen (9-12) athlete’s hand, allowing the catcher to receive and hold the ball in the gloves web. Like all Shoeless Joe Professional Series gloves, the 32″ catcher’s mitt is easily broken in and quickly game ready.
The 34-Inch diameter Professional Series Catcher’s Mitt not only looks great, but will provide your ball player with a quality piece of equipment that can serve them season after season. Almost every play on the field involves your catcher, and most every play will involve his catcher’s mitt. Our pocket and softer hinge can allow you to make every catch and the confidence to make every play from behind the plate. Included in all Shoeless Joe, Professional Series baseball gloves is XRD foam for Extreme Impact Protection and ball catching comfort.
Important tips on how to care for a Shoeless Joe Ball Glove
1. Make sure the hand is positioned as deep as possible inside the glove, and then play serious catch for about 30 minutes. The glove will usually then be “Field Ready”
2. Always store a Shoeless Joe ball glove with a ball inside the pocket, and secure the ball with a rubber band or other elastic device that wraps around the glove. This process will help maintain the gloves shape
3. While being worn, make sure that the hand and fingers are inserted into the glove as far as possible. This will help form the pocket and correctly close the glove when receiving a ball
4. Regularly inspect a glove to make sure that all of the laces are securely tied with a square knot. Two or three times a year inspect and tighten the laces. This will help the glove maintain its pocket. It is not uncommon to have to replace laces after a couple of years of play.

Fairly easy break in and he is getting use to it. Always a pain to grow into the next size.

Great quality glove and you will not feel any sting. The padding is so thick tho, it's hard to keep the ball from popping out. I've tried to break it in several times and even having my players use it and months later, it still doesn't feel broke in. They throw in the low to upper 70s. If it ever breaks in, I'll update this post.

Awesome catchers glove ! This glove comes half way broke in and is a very durable piece of equipment . I use mine daily and have been for about 3 years now doing pitching lessons for pitchers ranging from 8 to 18+. Highly recommend this brand of catchers glove at a reasonable price .

Glove is beautiful if I were right handed. Rare mess up by Amazon. I have little confidence the 2nd order through customer service will be right either.Please fix the ordering!!!!

Gorgeous mitt. The company called to make sure we really wanted a left-handed thrower's glove before making the initial order. So nice! Ours had a sewing imperfection on it, and when we contacted the company, they were very responsive, sent us a paid sticker to send it back, and are sending a new one to us. The customer service is phenomenal. Most importantly, my husband LOVES this mitt - the most 'broken in' mitt he's ever had, and it looks and feels great. Now he has no problem catching our daughter's fastballs!

This shoeless joe glove feels great out of the box. Basically one treatment with glove oil or shaving cream and it is ready to go. Nice size and it feels great. This is what a glove should feel like.On the downside It took three orders for them to actually send the right glove

My dad bought me a Nokona catcher's glove in the '60s to keep our pitchers from breaking my thumb. It was a thing of beauty---thick, soft, red-brown leather that broke in quickly and was a joy every time I saw it, even more so when I caught with it. My hand safe, I was free to really enjoy catching.This Shoeless Joe glove recaptures that aura of greatness. It is truly beautiful (well, to a catcher at least), with a soft, thick leather that you just don't see in gloves anymore. Smells incredible. It also is a deep reddish-brown---looks very much like the illustration. Out of the box it is game-ready---broken in nicely.Though it has a look and feel of an old-time catcher's glove, it is functionally a terrific glove. A little thicker, heavier than many newer gloves, but there is protection and sturdiness in it that many modern styles lack. It really protects the hand, but does not feel at all bulky to me. It has more of an open design---not a "fastback" or hand-hugger model. It does have a wrist guard...but it is well-shaped and placed---does not get in the way at all. My hands are average-sized, probably a little slender for a catcher, but the 34" glove does not feel too big for me. It feels...great. Like my lovely old Nokona.I use this glove to work with pitchers & catchers (as a HS coach)---I rarely have a fielder's glove on my hand---always a catcher's mitt. I'm going to love working with this one. I plan to pass it on to my son for when he plays catch with his own kids.I wanted one of these from the first time I saw a picture of it. Sometimes that results in disappointment when the real thing shows up. The opposite is true here---the glove is nicer than even the illustrations show; it surpassed my expectations.
