What size and brand of Glove does your DD use?

[02Crush]

So my DD has worn her glove into retirement over 3 years. Of course if was an inexpensive Mizuno glove that as served it purpose to this point. She loves it the old things but tonight asked if I would get her a new one for the Spring. She plays 12U. So for some good reading over the weekend I am asking you all the following?

Based on your DD's position; what size and brand gloves has she used?
And what has been a nice investment for the money. I am more looking for input on fielding gloves for position player's, not so much catchers for this exercise.

And.....Go....

My 12 year old wants to play 2B, usually plays OF, and has extremely small hands for her age. She is using a 12" Easton. I wanted to go with an Akadema for her, preferably 13, but I'm not sure her hands would be big enough for anything like that.

DD #1 18 Gold Wilson A2K 12" shortstop great glove ....DD #2 16U Mizuno MVP 12" pitcher and middle infield another good glove but wont last as long as A2K JMHO

When not catching, 14 YOA DD plays the corners and uses a 12.5" Nokona Buckeroo. Great glove.

Elk Grove, I bought both of my dd's Akadema AJB 74's. One was a 9 year old that was big for age, one was a 13 year old who was small for her age at the time. When I bought them, both were middle infielders, my older one now plays CF mostly. Both have smallish hands. The girls both really like the gloves and they served them well.

That is a really good glove for the money and a great match for kids. Plan on some break in time. They are built for smaller/women's hands. This glove will last longer than an entry level glove but we are only getting a couple years out of them, my kids play 100 plus games per year, practice 2x per week etc. That being said, I am thinking about buying Vinci or Nokoma now that they have hands that have grown. Keep hearing how they can last many many years, like the idea of that.

Akadema AJB-74 for my DD as well (P/2B). Great glove, nice fit for smaller hands. Listed as a 12" glove but really a little smaller than that.
