Shoeless Joe Joe Junior Series: 1000JRIW YouthFree Shoeless Joe Drawstring Bag

add_circle_outlinePros: High quality glove that was already broken in to be used by a young player. My seven year old is able to catch much better with it than he was with a less expensive glove that he could not open and close easily. Great glove for a competitive young player.

remove_circle_outlineCons: None.

add_circle_outlinePros: The quality of the glove is outstanding. The glove is well constructed and the leather is very soft.

remove_circle_outlineCons: The inside of the glove is a little too large for my 7 yr old son. He needs to where a batting glove in order to get a snugger fit. Not a con but more of a downside for smaller kids given that this is a youth glove.

add_circle_outlinePros: My 6 year old has been using this glove since he was 4. He has been able to easily open and close the glove since day one and it has only gotten better with each season.

remove_circle_outlineCons: None

add_circle_outlinePros: Leather is good quality. Old time style is classic.

remove_circle_outlineCons: This glove is too small for my 8 year old's hand/ pocket is small and ball tends to bounce out compared to other gloves we have purchased/compared to others at this price range I did not see the advantage of purchasing this glove.

add_circle_outlinePros: Really like this glove for a young player wanting to transition into competitive ball. Great fit on smaller hand and high quality feel. Small size promotes proper technique.

remove_circle_outlineCons: Went through several cheap starter gloves before I found this one.

add_circle_outlinePros: Excellent quality glove for a youth player. My 6 year old son has been able to use this glove with no issues regarding the size. Great glove for a young player that is looking to begin competitive play. Spend a little extra money and get a better quality glove, it is well worth the investment.

remove_circle_outlineCons: This glove takes a little while to break in correctly. The leather is a much higher quality and softer leather, but the heel of the glove takes some time to open up easily for a youth player. Once you get the leather to soften and close easily, the glove is an excellent choice for a youth glove.

add_circle_outlinePros: The 900 has a HUGE shell back strap that makes it fit little kids poorly. It also keeps kids from getting fingers into the finger pockets properly. The 1000jr even though a bigger glove, has a much better hand fit for small child and the shell strap is much thinner. The break in on the 900jr is extensive and the pocket is very small making it an impractical glove. The 1000jr has a larger pocket and is much more "game ready" the second you receive the glove. The 900jr has fingers that obstruct the pocket making it very difficult for a child to catch a ball. The 1000jr opens properly for practicing the fundamentals. The I-web on the 1000jr is soft and forms a deep pocket at the base of the web.

remove_circle_outlineCons: A $110 glove that is price-fixed nationwide by the manufacturer is a lot of money for a young child's first glove.

add_circle_outlinePros: pure quality. my son loves it; has this glove on way too much honestly. the smell of this glove is worth 10 times the price by the way.

remove_circle_outlineCons: none

add_circle_outlinePros: Amazing glove, real old time baseball, light for him to use, broke it perfect, a bit flimsy but no complaints. Id do this over again for sure. The first glove had better and deeper dark coloring. The second glove had the light brown i dont like as well. So far Iv purchased one for each boy as their first mitt, and got myself a catcher mitt and just ordered a 12.50 professional IWEb.

remove_circle_outlineCons: outgrew too quickly. My oldest was very advanced so, he moved up quickly to older leagues and i think at that point at 7 playing with 8-10 he needed a stronger glove playing first and pitching. We got 2 great seasons out of it.

add_circle_outlinePros: This is a fantastic glove. This glove is truly game ready. Very well made and seems like it should last through several more kids.

remove_circle_outlineCons: The glove is heavy because of the quality of the materials used. The hand fit is a little large for my 4 year old.

add_circle_outlinePros: My son has used this glove for at least 40-50 games over 2 years, plus practices. It has held up well and to me worth the $109 we paid but is now getting a little "floppy", meaning it has become a little too loose in my opinion causing pop flys and some catches to fold the fingers and the web to much almost knocking the glove off his hand. I think this glove is worth every penny for competetive younger players from 5-7 yrs old. After 2 full seasons I think the glove has a little bit left in the tank but 3 seasons might be pushing it. So if you're looking for a glove that is easily broken in and almost game ready FOR A 5-7 YR old that lasts for 2-3 years dependiong on game play and hand size.....AND only have $109 to spend this is your glove.

remove_circle_outlineCons: After a couple of years I feel the glove gives up some of its structure which assits in catching the ball. Maybe not a con but more of a preference of mine to have a little more structure in the glove but for $109 I think its a solid performer.

add_circle_outlinePros: Awesome glove. My son is 6 and loves it.
