Description
Vinci Pro gloves are the finest handcrafted gloves on the market and are designed with quality in mind. You can have the same quality the professionals wear with a Vinci. Individually handcrafted by Master Craftsman with years of experience and training, The Custom Pro Junior Series utilizes pro patterned gloves with pro-grade leather palms. On the back of the glove we utilized lightweight, softer leather for a lighter weight for a child and "ease of squeeze" for the youth player. Our Custom Pro Junior Series leather is pre-treated at the factory allowing for a much shorter break in time. Our high-quality leather allows our gloves to be durable, yet playable and retain their shape longer. Vinci's exclusive deep pocket design allows for better control and less spin. They also come with a heavy-duty thumb. More than just a glove, every model number, and signature has a meaning. Each Vinci Pro model is dedicated to Benjamin Vinci, a father, grandfather and WWII Veteran who left a great impact on so many people. You can find Benjamin Vinci's signature on each glove we make. He is the reason behind this company, so when you use a Vinci Pro glove, know that the story behind your glove is the story of an American hero. Put on a Vinci Pro glove and "Make the Play!"

Pros: Looks and feels like a pro grade glove, but for my Little Leaguer. Great glove, and it has a nice soft feel to it. Playable right out of the box.
Cons:
Pros: one day of break in and my 7 year old was using it, great glove
Cons:
Pros: My son plays travel ball as a 7yr old and its been hard finding a good leather glove because his hand is small. he had a nike glove and the web broke after one season. The vinci glove is more then i expected great glove very soft leather he was able to catch well with it out of the box. I have since put leather condtioner and tied the glove and man this glove is good perfect for a competitive youth baseball player
Cons: none great glove
Pros: I coach a 9U travel team and bought this glove for my son. The glove is light and playable right out of the box. There is just enough palm padding without making the glove stiff. We have owned Akadema, Rawlings, Wilson and Glovesmith baseball gloves, and this is the best youth baseball glove for the money with Glovesmith being second.
Cons:
Pros: Soft leather on back, makes glove very light and easy to break in. Probably best for 8-10 y.o. pocket is deep, works for multi-position player, esp 1st and outfield.
Cons: None right now. My son loves it.
Pros: Great glove out of the box - very little break in time. We've tried mizunos and rawlings and would buy this glove every time
Cons:
Pros: Bought a 10.5" for my 9 year old and liked it so much I bought this 11" for my 11 year old. Both love the look and feel of the gloves. Adult quality construction in a youth glove; the palm and lace construction is much sturdier than most other brands. Highly recommend.
Cons:
Pros: My son will be 8 in March and he is had a Wilson last year. He played centerfield and 3rd base, everytime he would catch a screamimg line drive he would take his hand out of the glove and shake his hand because of the sting. We switched to the Vinci Pro glove and he look like Jim Edmonds or Torry Hunter out there!!! He loves this glove!!! GREAT PRICE! EASY BREAK-IN
Cons: I WISH I WOULD'VE KNOWN ABOUT "VINCI PRO" BEFORE BUYING AN EXPENSIVE WILSON...
Pros: Excellent glove...super easy break in. Very suprised at how soft the leather is. 7 year old is playing with it. Loves it.
Cons: None...
Pros: Best glove I've bought either of my sons, worth every $. Very soft leather, almost game ready out of the box. After a little prep with glove kit, my 8yr old was able to easily control glove and mentioned the balls didnt sting with this glove.
Cons: none. Best glove I've bought to date.
Pros: Very soft, was almost game ready out of box. Seems to be a well built glove, would recommend for any 6-9yr.
Cons: none so far
Pros: My son absolutely loves this glove! Ready to play with right out of the box, no need to break it in. Best buy yet! It even arrived 3 days earlier than expected! Awesome!!
Cons: None!
Pros: I ordered this glove for my 7 year old on a Sunday night and had it on Wednesday. Vinci makes a great glove at a great price. Fit and finish are second to none. It was playable out of the box and only took me a couple of days to break it in the way I wanted it.
Cons:
Pros: As everyone has said the glove is lightweight and playable out of the box with a decent pocket. My 7 year old was able to use it the next day with literally no break in period.
Cons: The same things that make this playable out of the box I think contribute to these cons. It seems as though the glove is almost too lightweight. The fingers tend to give or bend when catching hard throws and line drives. There is also very little padding in the palm and he already has a broken blood vessel to show for it. The last issue I had was that the lacing was very loose in the fingers and the knots were not pulled tight. Within two days the thumb lacing retracted in the glove and I had to re-lace it.
Pros: Nice glove, ready to play out of the box. My 10 y.o. loves it..
Cons: None so far, but being so soft to begin with, I wonder how long it will last..
Pros: Good right out of the box.
Cons: After two seasons, it's almost too soft. Looks like they use thinner leather on the outside than on the palm of the glove. I think if they use the same for the entire glove it would be more "pro" style.
Pros: I chose this glove for my 8 year old. After one season of hard use, we are still happy with it. The extra soft (thin) leather on the back keeps the weight down, and really helped with the break in. The fingers a little stiffer than the Louisville Slugger Genesis, and this sturdy feel gives him more conficence with catching hard line drives and high flies. This size was perfect for him, and should still fit him for a several more seasons if it holds up, which it is so far. Great glove.
Cons: The soft leather on the back is showing some wear, but it is still holding up well after the first season.
Pros: I bought this glove for my 6 yr old. The quality of this glove is right up there with the more expensive models from top brands. No break in required. My son loves it.
Cons: the basket web is a little rigid, but we are applying glove oil to soften it up.
Pros: Playing right out of the box. This was a replacement for another glove that was ordered. So happy we got this one. Looks very well made.
Cons: None.
Pros: Turns out this glove is a great. Its feel is similar to much more expensive gloves. I don't believe that most would consider the Vinci Pro to be a game ready glove as it still needs break-in, but I would not consider this to be a con. Although this is an eleven inch glove I would consider this to be versatile enough to be used infield or outfield.
Cons: None - so far it's really great. Its nice and flexable - soft, but just don't plan on it being game ready right from the box.
Pros: Flexible for quick break-in period. Probably best suited for the casual player, or for a back-up glove.
Cons: Durability is questionable. The glove is not form fitting to my son's hand. The quality and craftsmanship is on par with gloves in the $30 range. The strings/laces appears to be a low grade leather material and needed to be tightened just about everywhere. If you are looking for a high-end glove, please do not mistake this glove to be in that category--it is certainly not.
Pros: This was purchased for my 9U son. Great glove - requires very little breaking in, which is what you want in a youth glove. The gloves that are 100% broken in out of the box usually don't last more than one season. This is a real baseball glove so it requires a little breaking in.
Cons: Wish there was an adjustable model available.
Pros: I coach a competitive 8u team and bought this glove for my 7 year old a year ago. This glove is perfect! Far and away the best glove on the field every time we play. It is light, easy to control for young players and great quality leather.
Cons: He'll eventually outgrow it!
Pros: Perfect for coach pitch thru machine pitch. Very nice padding, and easy break in perioud. My son is 4Ft 4 Inches and 70 lbs. The glove lasted him 1 year, and now I am ready to upgrade to a high end glove. This glove puts the cheam Rawlings and Wilsons from Wal-Mart to shame. Perfect entry level glove for the parent that cares about there kid having quality equipment
Cons: Very soft leather great for break-in and feel, but will no last more than a few seasons once your kid starts catching "Adult" Speed throws. Still better than any Wal-Mart specials, but obviously more expensive.
Pros: I coach 9U travel ball in San Diego and see lots of gloves come through the dugout. This one breaks in very quickly and seems to be pretty good quality. My son has small hands and he's able to close the glove pretty easily. Also a big fan of JustBallGloves and JustBats as they have great prices and service.
Cons: There is a thin insert in the glove between your hand and the thicker leather. Every time my son removes his hand from the glove the thin insert pulls out and bunches up in the finger holes. He can't get the glove back on without my help opening up the finger holes. This is a pain in the butt when he needs this done before every inning. If I had known about this issue I would have purchased a different glove.
Pros: Awesome glove, easy to break in. Only took a day or two to break in and my son is catching everything, fly ball, ground balls, a cold, the flu, you name it..
Cons: None
Pros: Easy break in. i hot my son a custom glove that is collecting dust because of this Vinci. He wont use anything else (and doesnt need to).
Cons: a bit to big opening for 7 yo
Pros: Bought one for my 9 year old who was using a 12" Wilson. His game improved immediately. As others have said, this is soft, light, yet has structure to it.
Cons: None
Pros: Love this glove. My son used this glove for u8 and u9 and absolutley loved it. Highly Recommend.
Cons: n/a
