Pros: quality construction,easy break in. glove is working well for me. Great glove !
Cons: I would like to see more palm padding if possible,even though i know thats not where i'm suppose to catch it.
Pros: forms well and it breaks in easy
Cons: would like to have more padding but it is still an awesome glove
Pros: Glove creates a great pocket, breaks in nice and looks sick too. For the price idk if you'll find a better mitt.
Cons:
Pros: Great glove, best glove I had in my career. So sad it broke yesterday after 2 years :( r.i.p
Cons:
Pros: Very easy to break in. I could almost use it the day I got it. I would expect this quality of leather to take weeks to break in.
Cons: The padding in the palm is a little thin but I don't think it is a problem
Pros: Less than an hour to get it game ready. Deep, secure pocket. This glove swallows ball. Beautifully made, luxurious leather.
Cons: It doesn't make me hit any better than I did before I got it.

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.
