Description

Akadema is known for their innovative glove designs based on an in-depth knowledge that comes from playing the game. In just over a decade, Akadema has become one of the hottest baseball and softball glove companies in the U.S. for professional, collegiate, high school, youth, and recreational ball players. The Apache Series offers players high quality leather with a softer, more game ready feel than most high-end gloves. The Apache Steerhide leather used for these gloves breaks in easy, yet will keep it's shape for seasons to come. This durability is partly due to reinforced finger crowns that give the player more control, and the glove more strength. This 12.00 inch pattern features a conventional open back and a two-piece closed web design. It's ideal for pitchers, but with its deep pocket, it can also be used by utility players. Choose the brand that some of the top pro players use and see why baseball is in Akadema's blood. Akadema: Bring Your "A" Game! Free Shipping!

Which if any of the Apache series is designed for fast pitch softball? Softball Dad
Unfortunately, the Apache Series does not feature any fastpitch softball models.
Tyler
I was wondering weather this is a good brand of glove? I have never used this brand before and I was looking to see what people's thoughts were towards this before I went out and bought it KBird
Akadema is a very popular brand and many players at the High School, Collegiate, and Pro levels use Akadema gloves.
Tyler
I am looking for a heavy, thick glove. I know the Akadema Apache is made of steerhide, which is known for resulting in much heavier gloves. Will the Apache series fit the bill for a heavy, thick glove? JW
The Akadema Apache Series: APC1032 is thick due to the steerhide leather and is slightly heavier than a lot of models. If you would like for your glove to be heavier, I would recommend using a lot of oil or even steaming it. Both methods can add weight to a glove over time.
Marcus
I am looking for a good outfielding glove that can also play other positions. Which would be a better choice, this or the ABH 1034? Zon
The Akadema Apache Series: APC1032 With FREE Akadema Sunglasses will be a better choice for playing other positions, because it will not be way too big for infield.
Noah
Would this make a good pitching glove? I am 6' 1", so i need to find a glove that is not too small, but not too big. salaschooch
The Akadema Apache Series: APC1032 is a great pitcher's pattern. It features a 12.00" pattern size which is the recommendation for adult pitchers. The glove size you choose would also be dependent on the size you feel most comfortable using.
Mac

The Akadema Apache Series (APC1032) has a quick break-in period.

About the Brand

In Akadema's short but remarkable history it has become one of America's hottest baseball and softball equipment company for professional, college, high school, and serious youth players. The Akadema phenomenon started with the Professional Glove Series and continues with the Reptilian®, Praying Mantis®, Pro Soft™ and Prodigy™ Glove Series as well as the Amish Wood™, Tacktion™ and Xtension® Aluminum Bat Series. Akadema's ownership attributes increasing market share to their innovative professional baseball and softball product line in contrast to mass-produced products that have little to do with quality, feel, or design to raise the level of play.

Akadema's products are manufactured for professional players but are now accessible to semi pro, college, high school, and serious youth players. Akadema products are still designed with the professional player in mind but competitively priced for the professional player at heart. So it's your turn to think like a professional, play like a professional, and use Akadema Professional!

Akadema now has both baseball and fastpitch softball advisory staffs that they work with closely to implement new ideas. Members of the baseball advisory staff include Hall of Famers Ozzie Smith and Gary Carter as well as Howard Johnson, Reggie Smith, Luis Polonia, Sandy Martinez and many others. Fastpitch stars that are on the advisory staff include Crystl Bustos and Julie Smith. The input on performance from the advisory staff gives Akadema something they cannot put a price on. Their advisors don’t talk about marketing or places to sell the gloves, they just care about performance.
