Pros: Great leather, substantial stitching and a HUGE forgiving pocket. Pocket is so deep the glove seems much larger than its 12.25 size. This glove seems larger, but is easlily more managable than a 12.5" Nokona that it replaced.

Cons: None

Cons: I don't know. Just replying. Xd

Pros: My son is completely satisfied with the performance of the glove. Since it was so late in the season, we wondered if the "breaking in" would be a problem, but it certainly was not. Thank you for the promptness in sending the glove. Again, I'm sure we will shop again. Margaret Semanek

Pros: I gave this to my left handed grandson who absolutely adores this ball glove! He is on a traveling team and pitches as well as plays 1st base. He did a lot of research prior to requesting this for his birthday. If he is happy then I give 5 stars.

Cons: Expensive! Very, very expensive! I had to arrange contributions from all grand parents to make his day!

im looking at 3 different 1st basebmens mitts and cant decide. whats your opinion between this, a Mizuno Classic Pro Soft Series: GXF26, or a Rawlings Gold Glove Gamer Series: GGFBG? Srose21
The GXF26 is a great glove, takes a little to break in, but is well worth the effort. The GGFBG is an excellent glove for the price, easy to break in. Nice pocket. The 1613BL is another excellent glove, easy to break in, great pocket, durable. Keep in mind whichever you get, we do have the 100 day guarantee on them.

Is this glove very stiff? I prefer when the glove is stiffer and takes time to break in. Levi
The A2000 gloves are known for their quality. They will be pretty stiff and will have an above average break in time.

How stiff would this glove be when i receive it because i don't like a not stiff glove? I like it to take a while to break in? thanks. kyle

How does this glove compare to the Rawlings heart of the hide first base mitt? Nick
Both the Wilson A2000 Series: 1613BL First Base Mitt and the Rawlings Heart of the Hide Series First Base Mitts are very similar gloves. Each glove uses high quality, durable leather and are preferred by Major League players.
Jeff
Would this glove still work for a very advanced coach pitch player? If not, what first base mitt would you recommend for a coach pitch player? Josh
The Wilson A2000 Series: 1613BL First Base Mitt is a great choice for a First Base Mitt. I just see it being too large for a coach pitch player. Try this one: Wilson Game Ready Softfit Series: A0800BBYTHBM Youth First Base Mitt. It is a more age appropriate size of 11.50".
Brandon

The Wilson A2000 Series: 1613BL First Base Mitt is a baseball first base mitt that will have trouble accommodating a softball. You will want to look a fastpitch softball first base mitts.
