SANDLOT Series

This is a beautiful glove! It is soft and broken in upon arrival and it’s great to use for laid-back play. It makes for an easy catch but it is still super durable.

This Rawlings Sandlot glove exceeded my expectations. The leather is top quality soft yet durable. It feels comfortable right from the first use, and after a short break-in period, it molds perfectly to the hand. Ideal for infield players, as it has the perfect size and a quick, responsive close. The design is classic and elegant, with a professional finish and well made stitching. You can tell it’s built to last for many seasons. The grip and ball control are excellent as well.

Good glove, took a while to break in but it is well made. My son is 11 and it fits perfectly.

Not quite sure what to expect, as this is marketed as sort of a low to mid range glove. The need was something that would last at least a couple years (2 seasons a year) hopefully, but also fit well, and be easy to break in. Rather than starting with the $300 models that are certainly quality but harder to break in, figured this was worth a shot. And, very impressed. Build quality is good. Started off taking conditioner to the material and did notice a bit of a red tone rub off some, but that actually gave a nicer dull finish than the almost shiny that it had out of the box. Finding a lefty glove for a good price is always a bit harder. This breaks in well after a few hundred throws. Used some 1lb weighted balls to aid in the speed of this and it seems to do what I would expect from a hammer it to soften and then catch with it, all in one step as intended. My new break in method is going to certainly include throwing weighted balls at the glove now. And, the added bonus is the user can report on the padding effectiveness as you toss the ball harder and harder during the break in. And happy to report the padding on this seems to be doing well. This was the first “first base” glove used, and a noticeable difference from standard utility gloves to help protect during all the throws expected in the field.

I was looking at the Sandlot gloves at Academy Sports. Great glove, great quality. However, Academy wanted $100 for the glove. Found it on Amazon in the store for $30 less. Delivered overnight. Very happy with this replacement glove (my well worn and broken in glove was stolen from my truck). Look forward to many years of use.

This is the best budget catchers mitt you can buy. The leather is very durable, a little slick at first since it’s oiled leather but once you play catch and use it, the feeling goes away. Break in time was good not too much work needed as these mitts are pretty easy to squeeze out the box. Catches well once pocket and shape are formed and fits great. As for game readiness, not game ready right away but as mentioned before after some use in practice and playing catch it will be ready to use in game.

Excelente muy bello super original

Great value for a catchers glove. These Come in extremely stiff so plan on plenty of break in to get it ready to go
