Nike® baseball gloves are constructed of premium, soft-oiled steerhide leather for an instant broken-in feel. An articulated air-pocket absorbs sting and impact on catch, while specialized anti-abrasion edges prevent wear and tear from your game.
Choose a baseball glove that delivers a snug fit. Gloves that are too large can hinder your performance on the diamond. Your Nike® baseball glove should be stiff enough to provide strength yet offer flexibility to for grip and control. A foam-padded wrist strap locks in for a secure, comfortable fit during play.
Always choose the baseball glove that's right for your position. Catchers should go for a fingerless mitt that features heavy padding to reduce sting. Pitcher gloves often have closed webbing that allows pitchers to conceal their grip on the ball. First basemen need gloves that are long and wide, specifically designed to scoop up grounders. A shallow pocket helps first basemen easily retrieve the ball.
Infielders need a five-fingered glove with a shallow pocket for quick throw, while outfielders need a deeper pocket to catch fly balls.
