The Elite Series Catchers Mitt is offered for right- and left-hand throwers in 32, 32.5, 33, 33.5, 34 and 35 inch sizes, with adult and youth fit options. The page states that catchers mitts are designed for catchers only and lists soft and stiff break-in levels.

Type	Catcher's mitt
Size	32 in, 32.5 in, 33 in, 33.5 in, 34 in, 35 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.
Custom	Yes
Hand	Right-hand throw or left-hand throw
Ages	Adult; Youth
Also on the page	Break In Level: Soft Stiff. Wrist Fur Color: Black White Moisture Wicking Pad.

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.

LeatherunknownNot known
Break-instatedGame-readyStated: page uses break-in or softness wording.
What this means
Soft out of the box and usable the first day. Made with softer leather that will not last as long as a stiff pro glove, which is fine for a growing player.
Tip: For most players under 12 this is the right answer.
Closing effortderivedEasyDerived: soft build and youth or small pattern.
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.
