Description
Partnering with global footwear company ECCO, Wilson is taking glove innovation to the next level with the Pro Yak Series. Made from the skin of Himalayan Yak, ECCO and Wilson discovered that yak leather has extraordinary strength and durability. This strength has been one of the best-kept secrets in the industry, until now. In fact, due to the rugged and rough terrain that yak live in, this leather is up to 3x stronger than cowhide! This allows Wilson to skive the hide thinner, providing players with a much lighter and more manageable glove. It also makes for a quicker break-in and a soft, game-ready feel right off the shelf... without sacrificing any durability! With 2x Palm Construction, the Pro Yak Series features a thin strategically cut piece of leather between the palm liner and outer shell, providing maximum padding and pocket stability. A lower profile heel makes the glove more flexible and opens up the palm and pocket to make the glove more forgiving on bad-hop grounders. These Pro Stock patterns are exclusively hand designed by the Wilson Advisory Staff to make sure these gloves have top of the line quality. Wilson: More Win! Free Shipping!

My grandson is 13 (turns 14 in May 2014) and plays mainly pitcher and shortstop, although he plays some outfield also. He is about 5'9" and about 125 lbs. Would the A1500BBG5 be a good glove for him, or is some other model better? Burt
The Wilson Pro Soft Yak Series (A1500BBG5) is a great option for him. It is a durable glove and will not require a long break-in time.

Which glove is better between the Wilson Pro Soft Yak Series (A1500BBG5) and Rawlings GXLE? lucky
The Rawlings Gamer XLE Series: (GXLE5RW) will use pro soft leather, and will provide a game-ready feel. The glove will incorporate very strong padding which will help reduce sting and absorbs the heat of the impact. The Rawlings Gamer XLE Series: (GXLE5RW) will be very flexible and will use ecco yak leather that will be fairly strong. Ultimately, it will come down to preference of material. The pro soft leather will have a softer feel, but the ecco yak leather will be a little bit tougher.
