Hey Ball Glove King. I recently got this wilson a2000 m23 33.5 catchers mitt. I have been working on hinges and forming the pocket. I used a 5 pound weight and broke in the hinges of the glove. I noticed there was a lot of wrinkling around the area it hinges and I was wondering if that was okay.

Hi. I'm trying to break in an A2000. I noticed you said you would have to repeat the "process" a few times. My question is, does that included dunking the glove again ? I tried your process and it definitely helped. After it dried, there are still some areas that make it to stiff to close. Would you drunk it in water again, or just keep using the mallet? Thanks.

It pulls the H-web pieces together tightly at the top and bottom while also being wider in the middle making it very very durable. This is the only "single" post web I would ever use.

I stopped the water dunk years ago after I got a steam cleaner that came with a handheld attachment. It works way better than dunking. Just let the steam temperature come down a few minutes so it’s not scolding hot. I also put the ball in and stand on it rolling the glove n ball under my weight.

I got my 10 year old son an a2000 for Christmas. Custom Pedroia fit 11 1/4. I’ve done a LOT of work breaking it in, using your advice. He’s using it 2 in the pinky. It has a great pocket. He can complete close it. Sounds great playing catch. I would say the downside is that it can be tougher for him to field slow rollers and back handers if the ball isn’t coming as hard. Soft kid gloves are like butterfly nets. It takes a little more to get the ball to stick in the a2000. You have to have better technique to come through the ball, or be ready to bare hand a ball that’s maybe a little fast for 10u to barehand. He still prefers it to his old glove, but some balls might be easier caught with a floppy glove. The decision becomes, how much life do you actually want to take out of the glove breaking it in so a younger kid can use it effectively. That said, I think it’ll be perfect the next few years as balls are hit harder, and it inevitably continues to break in. Hope this helps.

Thanks for pointing out to not put adult hands in the kids glove. I'm totally guilting when trying to break in my daughter's gloves. She just got a 11.25" Resilient softball glove for her 8th birthday. They have a ratcheting wrist enclosure that I thought would help her have the glove fit her smaller hand better. They are a small company that specializes in girls softball gloves, which I was more than happy to support. My daughter had a 10.5" Rawlings Highlight t-ball she used in the fall season and a 11" Mizuno Finch she used in the spring that I got on ebay for $15. Her first glove was fine after her first season but I felt there was something better out there. It was a huge improvement going from the Rawlings to the Mizuno because the Mizuno was much lighter, has a more snug fit on her wrist because of the Velcro strap, and easier for her to close but it's super thin and looks like a nerf glove on her hand. The Resilient glove is like a huge leap in quality compared to her two other gloves but it's like going from a tricycle to a Dodge Hellcat. Anyways, it would be cool if you checked out Resilient gloves.

I have had it steamed at dicks, used glove oil, beat the hell out of it etc. he is just now where he can maybe catch the ball here and there. I guess this real leather makes a huge difference. The guy at Rawlings when I ordered said it would be more difficult and for youth players said maybe not to go with heart of hide but my son wanted a certain color so here we are. And of course he won’t do two in the pinky which I think would allow him to close the glove better

Why is a pro preferred more expensive than a heart of the hide? is it better? Why is it ranked lower than a heart of a hide on your list?
@TysonHook-22-Ай бұрын
It's personal preference at the end of the day, Pro preferred gloves have various features geared towards better comfort and use a higher grade of leather... personally, I love Pro Preferred gloves for the addition comfort they provide. Heart of the Hides are considered to be more durable of a glove long term, the main reason being the pittards padding inside PPs although its vary comfortable it can have durability issues over time. Whereas the HOH steer hide palms are vary durable. For that reason, if you want a glove that's gonna last as long as possible HOH are always recommended over PPs. If you can find the rare production PP with a steer hide leather palm rather then the pittards palm lining, that's the best of both worlds imo... but typically your gonna need to go the custom route to get that. But rawlings has been known to do modified Pro Preferred production releases with it from time to time.
