we have 3 of these from 9.5-11 allen m coach

Pros: these are great gloves they come broken in from the box.my 7 year old is using a 10.75" from last year and my 5 year old lh thrower has an 11".its soft enough they can capture the ball but still good build quality for the $.we stepped my young 7 year old up to a rawlings 11.5" and its a great glove but too big for him right now (a pretty big 7 yr old).I would absolutely recommend this glove.

Cons: because its soft it came out of the box a little mis shaped, I wrapped it with a few rubber bands put a ball in the pocket and hit it with glove conditioner.took about 2 days to get the correct shape.

Is this okay for a 7 year old? Bud
Yes, the Mizuno Prospect Series (GPP1050Y1) is designed for youth players and would be fine for a 7 year old.
John H
My son is 7 years old and will be 8 in January. He is approx. 4'3" tall and 60-62 pounds. He plays 3rd base, a little first base and some outfield. I am looking for something versatile and inexpensive. What are your thoughts on size? Is 11" too big? Mark
We recommend a 10.5 inch pattern but since he is playing multiple positions a bigger glove could be used. The Mizuno Prospect Series: GPP1050Y1 features the V-Flex helps initiate easy closure while the PowerClose makes it easier for younger players to close the glove and catch the ball and this glove can be used in many positions with the Tartan flex webbing.
Ryan
I read on another glove that the GPP prospect gloves are pigskin. This glove is soft. Should I oil and break in this glove as I would any other glove? pne123
Due to the softness of the Mizuno Prospect Series (GPP1050Y1) it will not require a break-in period. You might want to use a shaping ball to help develop the pocket however.
Joe
Should I oil this glove since it is made with pigskin? pne123
The Mizuno Prospect Series (GPP1050Y1) will be game ready out of the box and should not require any type of oil or conditioner.
Patrick
is the 11" model to big for a 7 year old? jason
Generally, we are suggesting that 7 year olds use gloves with a 10" length. However, that does not necessarily mean that this 10.50" Mizuno Prospect Series (GPP1050Y1) or the 11.00" Mizuno Prospect Series (GPP1100Y1) will be too large for a 7 year old. Both gloves will have a youth sized fit that your player would be able to grow into even if the glove was too big at the outset. Also, at JustBallGloves we have a 100 day guarantee on all our gloves. The 100 day guarantee lets customers purchase a glove, use it and then if they decide that it is not the glove for them within 100 days of the purchase, we will let them send it back for an exchange or a full refund. Ultimately, you would risk no money!
