Russell

Pros: Bought this for my 13-yr old son who plays 3rd and 2nd. So far so good. He wanted a closed web and slightly larger glove compared to his prior H-web, 11.5" Franchise model. These gloves break in extremely quickly and great pocket padding. Well priced as well.

Cons: None

Me

Pros: Great quality. My son was catching well with it right out of the box. Not too hard to break in with a little work. He loves the darker color with light stitching (great look).

Cons: My son wishes it had a exit hole for index finger, but that's a very minor complaint.

Brady's

Pros: Excellent feel with leather feeling like it is already broke in. Extra padding in large ball pocket gives that extra protection catching fast pitched or hit balls.

Cons: None to speak of

How does this glove compare to the Mizuno MVP Series in terms of durability and comfort? a-smith
The Mizuno Franchise Series: GFN1175B1 is not going to have as high quality leather as the Mizuno MVP series. Both will break-in quickly and feature soft, comfortable leather. The MVP would be a more durable model.
Justin R.
Is this a suitable glove for an adult with a lager hand? JF
An adult should have no problem using the Mizuno Franchise Series (GFN1175B1). It is an adult model so it will have a wider hand opening and finger stalls.
Kelby
Is this a good glove for an outfielder? ballplayer3
The Mizuno Franchise Series (GFN1175B1) has an 11.75" pattern, and is usually preferred by a pitcher or a third baseman. Outfielders typically like gloves with bigger pattern sizes like a 12.50" or 12.75" design.
Jason
Would it be a good glove for high school play? Leviticus
The Mizuno Franchise Baseball Series (GFN1175B1) would be fine for high school. The glove doesn't say "Youth" in the description, so this is a high school/adult glove.

Is this glove good for the middle infield? Hoek
The Mizuno Franchise Baseball Series (GFN1175B1) is offered in an 11.75 inch pattern. Typically, most infielders prefer a model between 11.50 to 11.75 inches, because the shallow pocket allows you to get the ball out much quicker.
Joe
Would this glove be suitable for an 11 year old with a smaller hand? cc
The Mizuno Franchise Baseball Series (GFN1175B1) would be more of an adult style model. If your player has smaller hands, it may be a bit large for them.

Would this glove be suitable for an outfielder in 13U baseball? My hand is 7 inches tall and 3 inches wide. Kaine
The 11.75 inch size of the Mizuno Franchise Baseball Series (GFN1175B1) would make it a bit small for what most outfielders would prefer but it ultimately comes down to the player's preference. Often, outfielders would like a glove that is between 12-13 inches.
