Facts as the maker states them, read 24 Oct 2026

A navy and tan V-web glove in 11.5 and 11.75 inches from Bradley's Next Play BBG limited edition, offered in both throwing hands. It has a professional Texas steerhide shell and binding, rolled steerhide welting, sheepskin palm and cow-leather finger lining, acrylic fur wrist and USA steerhide lacing, with 70 percent player break-in required.

Type	Youth fielder's glove
Size	11.5 in, 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.

Fit profile

Stated comes off the maker's page; derived is worked out from what the maker states: its words, its leather, its numbers; graded is Patrick's call; unknown means the class is not known yet.

LeatherstatedSteerhide
Break-inderivedStiffDerived from stated player break-in of 70%.
What this means
Pro-grade leather such as Japanese kip or steerhide. Can take weeks to months to break in and a young player may not be able to close it at all at first. Lasts for years once broken in.
Tip: Do not buy a stiff pro glove for a player under 12 unless you are ready to break it in for them.
Closing effortderivedHardDerived: stiff build.
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.
