This Gold Glove model features the PRO I Web pattern, which is a single post reinforced bottom web that conforms to a smaller lighter web pattern desired by infielders, this allows you to better shape the pocket. With its 11 1/2" pattern and shallow pocket, this glove is primarily an infielders glove, especially for those up the middle at the Short Stop and 2nd base position. The Gold Glove Legend Series features the exact same patterns as some of your favorite pros and are designed with a softer, easier to close, game-ready feel. Additionally, PORON XRD palm pads have been added to drastically reduce ball impact to your hand.
