Facts as the maker states them, read 24 Oct 2026

An 11.75-inch open-back I-web infield glove in black and red with a black mesh back, built from 6 oz premium kip leather with leather finger linings, a solid palm pad in the pocket, pre-treated leather and stays in the thumb and pinky. Sold for right- or left-hand throw and listed for baseball infield alongside fastpitch and slowpitch infield.

Type	Infield glove
Size	11.75 in What this means Measured from the heel to the top of the index finger. Infielders use smaller gloves (10.25 to 11.75 in) for quick transfers; outfielders larger (12 to 12.75 in); first base and catcher's mitts are measured differently. Tip: Bigger is not better for a young infielder. A glove they can close beats a glove that looks like a pro's.
Web	I-Web What this means An open web shaped like an I. Light, quick to clear dirt, lets the ball out fast. The infielder's standard.
Leather	6 oz. premium kip leather What this means Light, tight-grained leather from young cattle. The premium choice for pro infield gloves: light and long-lasting, but stiff at first.
Back	Open
Hand	Right-hand throw or left-hand throw

The maker says	The leather is pre-treated to allow for quicker break in time. The glove is one of the lightest on the market today. Its sturdy stays in the thumb and pinky reinforce the rigidity of the glove.

Break-instatedMediumStated: page says it breaks in quicker or easier, not that it is game-ready.
What this means
Needs a week or two of catch and shaping before it closes well.
Closing effortderivedMediumDerived from break-in class.
What this means
How hard a young hand has to squeeze to close the glove on a ball. Easy means a soft build and a smaller pattern; hard means stiff leather or a big mitt.
Tip: If your player drops balls that hit the pocket, closing effort is usually the reason, not the hands.
