Looking to buy a custom glove with wrist strap, I like the 44 gloves but don’t see the strap for the wrist so I was seeing if anyone had some thoughts on this. Looking for a 11.75 middle infield glove for a 13 yr old.

In one of the glove threads, it was mentioned that tightening the wrist strap actually limits your ability (range of motion?) to squeeze the glove. I believe the “correct” way of using the strap was to squeeze the glove closed first, then tighten the strap.

Has she tried any Pedroia fit gloves? Just got a 6-4-3 (Rawlings?) for my not-that-interested in baseball son, and the hand stall isn’t even wide enough for 4 of my fingers.

I believe 6-4-3 series is Wilson line.

You are correct, sir!

It is a Wilson. Picture attached - it does fit 4 fingers. Barely. It’s an 11.5”. Would quickly cut off circulation in my hand, but looks like it would be perfect for most female players.

Random side thought - awesome MLB Tonight segment with Thome and Byrnes talking youth coaching.

Wow!!! Either you have Monster sized hands or that’s a damn small glove!!! Looks like a T-ball glove on you.

I know you referenced 44 pro gloves, never seen one before, but I have seen and held two different Gloveworks gloves. Both were baseball gloves, one 12 inch, one 11.75, no wrist strap.

I was shocked at just how tight they were, no strap needed, very tight! I’ve been reading on here, looks like the wrist strap thing is pretty divided here with lots of guys not liking them.
