Description

Akadema is the most exciting baseball and softball company in the world. Akadema's ownership attributes an increasing market share to their innovative quality professional product line in contrast to mass-produced products that have little to do with quality, feel, or design that raise the level of play. Akadema's products are manufactured for professional players, but are available for semi pro, college, high school and serious youth players. Akadema's latest glove series is the Akadema Precision Series. The Precision Series uses Precision Kip Leather that is 20% lighter and tighter grained than steer hide. The hides are harvested in Europe and tanned in Japan. Ultimately, the Precision Series design provides the player with a more pliable glove. This allows for easier break-in. The Precision Kip Leather also provides more tensile strength than competing glove lines. This results in a stronger, more durable glove. Akadema Professional - "On the cutting Edge of Sports Technology". Free Shipping!

Have a question about the Akadema Precision Series: ADJ154 First Base Mitt? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

My son is finishing up 9U all star ball. He really likes 1st base, so I would like to get him a first baseman's mitt over the winter for him to break in and use next spring 2012. If he currently uses a 11.5 inch Akadema Prodigy Series: ATM92 (at age 9), do you think this 12" mitt will be the right size for next season at age 10? A
