Pros: great glove i have had it for a while now and still in great shape its going to be the only glove i ever use

Cons: just that it takes a long time to break in

Pros: very good glove never had it but friend has it used it loved it

Cons: none

Pros: breaks in two weeks very good wrist gauard live saver !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 buy it better than pro perfered

Cons: none

Pros: Made by All Star. Wrist guard is always nice.

Cons: Leather by pocket where your fingers are placed is weak. A lump seemed to form where i squeezed the glove. Spend the 280 and buy the All Star gloves the pros use.

Pros: Good look, very comfortable, and good size

Cons: impossible to break in; i had to bring it to someone to break it in for me, however now its great

Pros: oil softened therefore brok in real nice, in a short period of time.

Cons: became very flappy after some use and like the other guy said a lump form where i squeezed it.

Pros: vrey comfortable...its not pro preferred but its very nice..wrist guard actually helps alot...my intentions were to take it off at first but it has helped with blocking alot....

Cons: PEOPLE, A LONG BREAK IN TIME IS GOOD...THAT MEANS ITS GONNA LAST LONG AND ITS GREAT LEATHER!!!...finger pad is a pain kinda if u like to put ur finger out of the glove like i use to until i got this glove...might wanna put that into consideration...i catch to high schoolers (70-high 80's mph) and it doesnt hurt my finger keeping it in...so its all good

Pros: great glove. nice look. i like the look better than the pro preferred glove. it feels great on my hand

Cons: takes an incredibly long time to break in. Heavy

Pros: amazing glove. i love it. i will never buy another kind of glove.

Cons: i agree with the other guy a long break in time is good and if you break it in right it wont form a lump duh

Pros: great glove havent got it broke in yet but when i do it wil be great

Cons: none!!!!!

Pros: this is a great glove i catch kids throwing 60mph from 50 feet away and doesn't hurt my palm when i catch it.. wrist gaurd is nice.

Cons: very hard to break in. 3 weeks to a month.

Pros: good padding. can close around ball.

Cons: tough break in

Pros: As a high school catcher I will say that this mitt is outstanding for freshman thru varsity pitching. Breaks in fairly quick (do it right and it won't form a lump), great padding,durable,light and comfortable. Shapes and plays way better than my A2000 & Akadema APM40.

Cons:

Pros: just great. way better than a2000.only rawlings HOH and all-star pro elite are better, and both cost more.

Cons: none

Pros: Nice mitt-second one bought-fits and feels good with lots of padding

Cons: First one bought last year almost wore out-not sure if over used or low quality

Pros: well made, breaking in nicely. Good protection and pocket. However yet to use in game situation

Cons: Does take a little time to break in but would expect that from a catchers glove

Pros: now catching guys throwing 70+mph. doesnt hurt my finger and is holding its shape after a year of catching mid 60's.

Cons: nothing. not to floppy. perfect.

Pros: great padding, just got it, the wrist guard seems useful

Cons: none so far

Pros: Very nice look. The pocket is HUGE! If you break it in right, it won't form a lump. I like the look.the leather is very soft. I got mine because i traded a pair of batting gloves for it. But still worth the money!

Cons: Took a while to break in, but it was fine once i did.

Pros: this glove has a lot of padding and it held its shape fairly well.

Cons: its pocket didnt break in as deep as i wanted it to and the lace going through the middle of the web snaped after a year of use. the velcro back is kind of annoying.

Pros: Great glove, forms a very deep pocket and super comfortable, breaks in to be a great glove and wrist guard helps a lot.

Cons: hard to break in and sorta forms a lump, but no big deal

Pros: Very good glove. Very comfortable and very padded. Also breaks in well.

Cons: Super tough to break-in. But that's it and there is nothing wrong with a lump people, most catcher's mitts form one.

Pros: I got the 33.5" and the 35" to see which was best for me. As a pitching instructor, and being Left Handed, quality catcher's mitts aren't that available in large sizes. All Star did an amazing job on this one. I would have opted for the higher level model, but it isn't available in Left handed. This Pro Series model is as good as any premium catcher's mitt out there. The leather is amazing and the break-in is reasonably quick. This one will last a long time. JBG.com's return policy helped me make the right choice. Highly recommended. Nice pop on good fastballs,

Cons:

Pros: Durable, great pop, great padding.

Cons: HEAVY break-in time and pocket. Had this glove for over a year catching 80 mph+ and still is stiff. I love the glove but I suggest a Rawlings Heart of the Hide Pro Mesh.

Pros: good glove and feel feels like a2000 just less break in time

Cons: got glove steamed and lacing broke, then got a new one (not steamed) and had it for 2months and lacing already breaking:(

Pros: Great glove, excellent quality, perfect for my 12 year old

Cons: it is super stiff and take a lot of work to break it in- but it is worth it!

Pros: Great padding, good for catching accurate fastballs.

Cons: I have had this glove for just over a year and it is about halfway broken in. I like stiff gloves, but this is ridiculous. I think the very, very thick padding contributes to the stiffness. By the time this glove is breaking in, the leather is wearing down quickly. This glove is very heavy, making it hard to catch curves or off target pitches. The tan leather is very light and will turn dark brown with moisture. Do not loosen the pocket laces: the square part of the web is larger than other catchers mitts, so you don't want the pocket any bigger.

Pros: I bought this for my 11 Year Old son who is now catching guys throwing serious heat. We went from the Akadema AGC 98 to this. Glove is outstanding in quality. Fit is slightly big, but Velcro strap locks down the wrist well. Broken in in three weeks and is using it in games. Very good padding, but not so much that you can't receive well.

Cons: For him only (because he is 11), the size of the glove is slightly big. A 32.5" would have been ideal.

Pros: Great mitt! I actually caught with it in a game catching low 80's just 3 days after it came in and didn't drop a single ball, believe it or not. PS that wrist protector didn't affect my catching, I just thought it looked dorky so I cut it off. Very easy.

Cons: A lace came loose around the webbing, don't know where it came from but I just tucked it around another lace on the back of the mitt.

Pros: I researched mitts for nearly 2 months. I was iffy with this glove simply bc people wrote reviews based off their 15-16 year old son or younger. I am a 18yr old upcoming freshmen at Daytona state and this mitt is great! Pop, transfer, and receiving are great. Will hold up mid 80s to low 90s. Breaks in differently compared to a Rawlings mitt. All in all great glove!

Cons: The All STAR stamp in the middle fades away but mitt still works and looks good.

Pros: Looks great, smells great with the new leather. The pocket configuration is perfect i.e.size width,length it's just right

Cons: The break in is slow. Catch everyday, 75 to 95 catches. Two weeks have gone by and the ball is still popping out of the glove. Takes heaters very good at 92mph. Hand has taken it 3 times at the bad spot. Wondering if I should of bought the larger mitt. My pro friend loves his and I took his recommendation at his word, and so far he's been spot on.

Pros: -conciderably easy break in if you now what you are doing(long break is not a con) -best glove I have had yet - thick padding

Cons: semi-small pocket but easier on throws to second

Pros: Very good mitt very easy to break in. With my old sons mitt (witch is 9)on the outside corner of the plate with his framing his pocket was very floppy and the all star mitt as a stable pocket

Cons: nothing get

Pros: Just upgraded my sons 31" to this (12yo little leaguer). Right out of the package it feels great. Good size, quality build. Will require break in, but not as much as feared, should be ready to go by opening day no problem. Will try to review this summer after he's been behind the plate a few innings.

Cons: Non yet! Wrist guard is suspect, but for now my son thinks he'll like it.

Pros: When I played JV it was an outstanding glove. very durable and didn't become floppy and was able to keep its form for the last few years. This is a great glove for underclass high schoolers but i did not like using it on varsity.

Cons: First one I had the x lacing on the web broke after about a month just from playing catch. Second one has been better but i feel like it is much smaller than a 33.5 it plays like a 31 and when i caught pitchers who threw in the 80's you could definitely feel it in the index finger

Pros: Good padding, solid feel

Cons: Took great care breaking in the new mitt. Day 1 of winter workouts the laces snapped in the pocket (today). Scrambling to find someone to relace quickly. A little concerned moving forward.

Pros: Well made with good material, deep pocket and fits my 13 year-old son's hand well. He liked it the first time he tried it on. After less than a week, with daily work it is starting to break in. Seems to be a good glove for the price.

Cons: None so far

Pros: Very well constructed, deep pocket and fits my son's hand well. Good padding and materials. Expect it to be durable.

Cons: A little stiff, which is indicative of a better glove. Will take a few weeks to really break it in.

Pros: We have owned a lot of gloves including a few catchers mitts and this is an outstanding, well constructed, very tough mitt. It has a very stout feel to it, heavily padded. Best mitt for catching heat and quickly transferring the ball. Best suited for a player with large/strong hands that can really put the squeeze on it. Would take a long time to wear this mitt out.

Cons: Hardest to break-in mitt we have ever owned. After three seasons, finally feels broken in. EXTREMELY stiff and a very(too much) shallow pocket. I figured when we got it that the pocket would stretch a little as most usually do. Hasn’t stretched one bit, if I didn’t know any better, would think this mitt is laced with steel cable. It’s heavily padded body can create some bounce out and dropped balls on slower pitches even when you are certain you have the ball firmly in your grip. Great mitt, not getting rid of it, but my son is moving to something less stiff and with a deeper pocket. If you get it, I would recommend heavy saddle soaping it and working the leather. I have seen saddles softer than this mitt.
