Description

Known for comfortable gloves that perform unlike anything else on the field, Akadema has raised the bar with the Torino Series. With a light brown palm and a chocolate brown shell, the Torino Series performs even better than it looks! Akadema's newest glove line is made from soft and smooth kip leather that enables the Torino Series to be 20% lighter than traditional gloves, yet just as durable as U.S. steer hide. These gloves break-in quickly yet retain their shape better than any other glove on the market. This 11.75 Inch pattern features an I-Web and is the perfect size for an infielder. Never drop a ball again as the pocket on the 11.75 Inch Torino Series is made deep to make ball retention easier. With a conventional open back, this glove is made to give players the ultimate control in the field that they've been looking for. Akadema: Bring Your "A" Game! Free Shipping!

Pros: Good shape. Sturdy leather.

Cons: My Gawd this thing is stiff! Bought it for my 13yo son and I've been pounding it, oiling it, and shaping it for 2 months now. He uses it a couple times a week (it's winter) and he can't keep a ball in it. We're hopeful it will be worked in by February.

Have a question about the Akadema Torino Series: AER3? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

Would this glove be suitable for softball? If so which positions? AkademaNered
This Akadema Torino Series: AER3 With FREE Glove Bag would most likely be too small for softball use. It is 11.75". Typically, this is a good size for a third baseman/pitcher playing baseball.
Brandon
Would this be a good glove for a 15-year old middle infielder? She has the 12" Akadema AJB74 now. New coach is suggesting she go to 11.75" when playing MI. She occasionally plays CF. Kim
Based on her age and position, we would recommend a 12.00" model. For further information on sizing, please visit out Glove Coach at http://www.justballgloves.com/glove-coach/.

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.
