What size glove should you use for softball? That can be hard cause many of us are used to our baseballl gloves but this is a very different sport and you may need a different glove. If you played in the ouftield than you're in luck because almost every outfield glove will work great for slow pitch softball. The smallest size glove you should ever use in slow pitch is probably 12". You can get away with a smaller glove but it is only making you worse. I currently use a 12.5" glove at shortstop and it has felt great. I used 12.25" last year and it felt a little quicker but obviously a little shorter. For anyone in the outfield you should be using at least 12.75" and could go up pretty much as much as you want. I've seen softball gloves go all the way up to 15" before!!! At third you could use 12.5" or bigger. I think 12.75 would be most peoples favorite size glove at this postion. But as you'll see in the video I'd reccomend going with 12" at the smallest for middle infield. In reality you should be using something bigger because a softball is so big so you aren't going to lose it in the glove. The only thing you need to weigh is how quickly you cqn move the glove. Meaniing left and right when someone tags a short hoppper to you and you need to just make an instant move to a back hand. Are you gonna be able to make that pklay with 12.75"? If so you might as well just use that size glove cause it'll only help you.
Loved this vid. I’ve been using my Wilson 1787 because that’s my only glove but now that I’ve been playing softball much more I was thinking of getting the Wilson SP125. 12.5 size deep pocket and awesome color way. I play shortstop too so I’m hoping it’s not going to be tough to transfer quickly. It’s coed so the small ball for women is easy to catch with a small glove but the real ball I don’t have a lot of room for error.
Bro your micd up vids are so good keep up the amazing work.
Ps I got a 44 cuz of u and it’s in stage 4 IM SO EXCITEDDDD
Thanks man! And that’s super exciting!
Dude haha! Great video made me feel things inside which is new! I’m usually dead inside but not after this video!
Lol I’m glad I could restore some life in you
just found this channel and I love it!
Glad to hear it!!
I just got a 1275 rawlings gg elite and was wondering if maybe it was too big. I've only played baseball in the past, but I'm playing softball now. Good to hear that you think bigger sizes are probably better even though you prefer 1225.
I'm also using tips from your glove break in video, since I technically never broken in my old glove, as I used a hand-me-down A2000 from my brother in school ball. Thanks for the videos! Just subbed!
I’ve got an A2000 OT6 that’s 12.75” and I love it. I don’t play or anything i just practice with my nephews
Love your vids man
Thanks!
Thank you so much for this video🙂
NP my guy
After trying a 13.5 (too big) and a 10.5 glove (kinda small) I got a Franklin Fieldmaster 12, fits good and works well! I couldnt find a used leather glove and didnt want to break in a new leather glove, too hard, takes too long! Its a pleather glove, inexpensive, perfect for throwing balls with the hubby and gkids; arrived next day via Amazon; arrived splayed open, so used bungee cords to flex fold it closed for several hours, then it wd close readily. Theres no batting/catching/running group for grannies in my area, drat!
Your the best glove collection
Man, I got here watching stuff about nike gloves (I do own a few) and I really really like this video. Thanks for showing us a way more relaxed view over things compared to other channels, I liked that. Thank you! I am subscribed now of course.
The in game glove reviews are entertaining. If it was me I’d use the glove that looked the best but I’m fashion over function lol.
Lol I like that
The glove holding the mic is gorgeous
Very true!
Aprooved
Arenado glove
@@ballglovekingwhat color leather is the glove that’s holding the mic? Thanks!!
I used a 14" Rawlings to play tee ball with my son.
Wish I found your channel 3-4 years ago, instead of just buying stuff randomly at the local retailer.
remember on one of your recetn vids i said i made two gloves and i made my mom choose and i wont know until it comes. it comes in today
No frickin way I remember that, shoot me a dm on Instagram I love to see everyone’s customs
DANG Chris be hitting us with the style points
And infield pop ups!
@@ballgloveking HECK YEAH
love the glove mic
Banger
Thank you!
Is there a glove you recommend that would work for multiple different positions and games? I’m getting back into baseball and playing in a city league here but wanna get into some different leagues also and it’ll be baseball, slow pitch softball and fast pitch. I will be playing mainly outfield in all of them but every now and then switch to 2nd and 3rd base. I’ve got a Walmart cheapie glove I been using but am now looking into the market of the good 100-200 dollar gloves and I can’t afford to buy 6 of those. So I was hoping that I could find a glove that would be ok for each position and league. Or I might just have to buy a outfield glove and use it for each league and infield glove and use it for each league.
I've been running a 14" glove at 2nd base lmao bought it cause I was expecting to play outfield but have been put at 2nd for my last 5 tourneys.
Getting a 44 for slow pitch. What are your thoughts on an I web on a 12.25 glove? If not ideal might just go H web
Keep up the good work u always keep me guessing about what glove I should get. I have a question? I play ss and 3rd but I use a 12 inch. And my dad now wants me to get a 12.25 but I used a friends 11.5 inch and I loved it so could u plz help me?
get a 11.5 or 11.75
Thx
What he said ^^
@@preston9852 what’s the difference
Do you usually use baseball gloves for slow pitch or do you use gloves specifically for softball? Have you noticed benefits or cons from either? These days all I play is softball and I want to upgrade my glove, mostly play short
Are all of these gloves softball models? Do you have any experience playing slow pitch with baseball models and is there a big difference?
Great content man, I play in a Sunday league and have a very small budget. Whats the cheapest middle infield glove or brand that you would recommend? Im 5'4 140lbs so idk if that makes a difference.
44 pro
He said cheap bud 😂
That thumbnail makes me think on how small baseball/softball gloves get
I’d be interested to hear what size and what gloves the other players on your team use
That would have been a great thing to add to this, I’ll try to include that in another video at some point
@@ballgloveking lookin forward to it
I'M BACK BAHHHS. Keep up the good work. 👍
That was the best part of the video
Def recommend cutting at the ball and stop dropping your back shoulder hitting, if you haven’t already fixed that lol. Softballs a lot harder then guys imagine!
I just lost my 44 not to long ago I almost cried it was my favorite glove by far and I don’t have enough money to just buy another one
there's a 27% off deal going on right now (through the 16th i think) if that helps you any
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks my guy
I use 13.5 for shortstop in softball
What should a high school baseball player use for outfield
7:35 wow that was a really nice flip
Thanks man!
Flips on fleek 👌
I’m two years late- wondering how much does going from slow pitch- this video- to fast pitch softball change the size of glove wanted for each position?
I use a 13” in the outfield and like it
👌🏻👌🏻
I’m looking for get a 44 for softball
I want a 12 3/4 to play infield. But at that says on there site it says it’s for outfield. So will it be made different or can I still play infield with it ?
I’m not sure if maybe the fingers on there softball out field model and made more for outfield
I got my 44 as a 13 in but I’m also a pitcher
Are you using baseball gloves for softball? Can you do a video about differences between baseball and softball gloves?
Yes need a video
Love the content man. Question for you that I haven't seen asked before, is the 12.25 44pro glove you have a baseball pattern or slowpitch pattern? Wondering if you could shed some light as I am about to place my first 44 order and I'm not sure which to go with. I've always just used 12.5 to 13in baseball gloves in the past for SS in slowpitch. Thanks for your time.
It’s a softball model and it’s great but I think 12.5” is kinda the perfect number
@@ballgloveking I completely agree on 12.5. With my 12.75, every now and then I won't be able to get a full grip on the ball when rolling two.
Second question if you don't mind, do you think the 44pro 12.5 slowpitch pattern would differ from your 12.5 HOH baseball pattern? Basically wondering if the slowpitch pattern from 44pro will make the glove "bigger" even at the same glove length.
I don’t have a 44 pro in 12.5” but my 12.25 44 is definitely smaller than my 12.5 Rawlings’s I’d guess that it would be just right in size if that makes sense
@@ballgloveking Definitely makes sense. I guess 44pro's "difference" between a baseball pattern and slowpitch pattern isn't nearly as important as the glove size. Thanks for the feedback and help!
@@matthewflorez6512which glove did u end up getting and wat size I’m in the same boat as you brother
Looking at the wilson A2k 1795 to play infield for slowpitch. Any thoughts? it’s a 12 inch with a deeper pocket than most baseball mitts
Not a bad idea, 12” is a little small but can totally work
Is a 11 and a quarter good for a second baseman and I’m 10 love the content
Yes!
I use a 12.75 GG elite Trap-eze in the outfield. Some guys on my team use 15.00 lol
Obviously you gonna choose a glove by your hand size also I use 11.25 for shortstop for softball and works fine
is the 44 12.25 u use a 574 off the website or pro44
Since you have experience buying 44’s is the shipping department 7 days and then the additional shipping time or is the 7 days the time it’ll take to get to your house
Yeah the shipping is seven days till it get shipped out then it’s just however long it takes to get to you
@@ballgloveking thanks so much for the info. My glove should be in stage 5 Sunday I literally am so excited. Watch me get an email like “during qc we realized we messed up the color and have to start all over so sorry”
@@phantom3292 Makes no sense how it should be in "shipping department" for 7 days. Like what are they doing that it takes 7 days for each stage. (It makes sense when they're actually building the glove.)
Hi Chris, I’m in the market for a new glove, my main position is second base, but a lot of the time I play centerfield and pitcher. So would you say a 12 inch glove would work for second base and outfield. Or should I go 11.75. I like big gloves and small gloves. I honestly don’t know what to get so any help is appreciated. For baseball.
If you are really playing a bunch of positions like that I recommend 12”
It stinks to have to use one glove for all that but that’s how it is sometimes
I would also recommend an H web since they are great for every position
@@ballgloveking ok thank you, that’s what I thought. God bless you man
11.5 or second
Damn your 44 batting gloves ripped? I was about order me a pair but I was already a bit concerned about the durability on em. Do u think I should just pass on em?
My first pair played a long time and jelly great but my saving pair ripped on one of the seems which sucks so I’d say maybe go with something else like some Franklins
@@ballgloveking Gotcha thanks for the advice brotha, keep up the cool content!
12.5 or 12.75 for slow pitch 3rd base? any recommendation is welcomed.
75
Aww man where was this two weeks ago
Haha sorry my man
I gotta get my 44 glove in 4 day🔥
I got it🔥🔥🔥
Please give Grace gloves a try. I’m not affiliated in any way I’m just a customer and a longtime channel follower. Their quality will blow you away!!!
Is 11.75 too big for second bc I bought a 44 11.75 and I’m panicking
for softball my size chart is always infield - 12" - 12.5", pitcher - 12.5", outfield - 12.75" - 13"
for baseball its similar except for pitcher its 12” and infield its between 11.75” - 12”
Shortstop softball what glove would u say to get softball or baseball and what size
Were all these softball gloves
Good fielder, just try to level the swing. You'll get it down.
Can you do the same video but in baseball ⚾️
I’d like to soon!
how’d he know i hadn’t liked the video yet
Magic
Are these all actual baseball gloves or softball gloves? I need a new glove for softball but only ever played baseball. Should i get a baseball glove or a slow pitch softball glove? Thanks.
I’m gonna be posting a video today that will definitely help you out, that’s good timing! But an outfield baseball glove tends to be a really solid Slowpitch glove. In the video later today I will mention a few gloves I recommend most
@@ballgloveking Thanks for the fast response! I really appreciate it! Not going to lie, i was at dsg just now and since I’m kinda on a budget i was very limited to what i can get. I saw some really good ones i wanted but i couldn’t afford. So i went with a WilsonA950. I know it might not be the best but it’s something for now lol. Any opinions on the Wilson A950? It’s a 12.5 and ill be playing shortstop this Thursday
I use 15"
You should design a bat pack for you merch
That would be so cool!
For hitting I’m just saying maybe scoot up in the box it helped me get out of slumps
That’ll be my approach next time 👌🏻
are you from stl mo i have seen you with a stl cardnals shirt
Nope just raised a cardinal fan
I’m from chicago
@@ballgloveking im a cards fan two
respect you didnt give in to the cubs
@@ballgloveking You are welcome.
Do you think 11.75 is to small for slowpitch softball?
Definitely usable but you’d never see serious Slowpitch players using anything under 12”
I’m using a 11.5 Wilson A2000 at shortstop am I bugging
Na I use a 11.5 heart of hide. How you shape the pocket is most important IMO. I would maybe use a 11.75, but even 12 feels too big for me.
Ever tried anything smaller then a 12”? I play softball all the time and I prefer to use 11.5” gloves
For baseball, you can use literally any 11.75 glove for every infield position besides obviously catcher and 1st.
You get an okay sized glove with quick releases.
Personally if you play a lot of infield positions an 11.5 glove is just too small. you can only really play 2nd and maybe shortstop with it.
MLB shortstops use 11.5
I do fastpitch I use a 12"
Nice! What position?
@@ballgloveking SS and 2nd
My glove size is 14 inches
I have played slow pitch for 8 years now 4 playing short stop and I’ve never used a glove smaller then 13” with my main being 14”. Couldn’t imagine using anything smaller.
If you feel comfortable using it going bigger won’t hurt so I love to hear that!
Thanks for info recently got 13 and felt huge maybe just have to get used to it 😅
The bigger the better?
so i bought a 14 inch softball glove for shotstop baseball is that bad?
That’s REALLY big I’d definitely go smaller
Not bad at all! Learn with the glove it will help you snag those hot balls and eat up anything!
Sizes over 12 inch is generally considered as big for infield gloves. But some people use big gloves because they feel comfortable to use it. So basically case by case.
While it comes to 14 inch I would question it. Never knew that softball gloves come with max 14 inch size, which is interesting. According to MLB rules, all gloves excluding mitts should be under 13 inch long. Although it's not illegal to use your gloves in your game since you're not a Major League baseball player but just bear in mind why there are such rules in regulating sizes of the glove and/or why most people don't use gloves over 13 inch. Not just because unlimited glove size causes unfair games, but you as a player will feel uncomfortable pulling the ball out from your glove to throw it when defending as an infielder.
And merry Christmas to everyone
Damn , I use an A2000 11.5 for softball playing 3rd
That’s tiny haha
dude same, i’ve always used an 11.5 for middle infield for baseball and it feels fine for softball too haha. i can’t imagine there being too drastic a difference from 11.5 to 12.25, tbh i feel like i’d be slower haha
I try a 12 inch idk I didn’t feel comfortable, but could be I’m use to my glove
I try a 12 inch idk I didn’t feel comfortable, but could be I’m use to my glove
I try a 12 inch idk I didn’t feel comfortable, but could be I’m use to my glove
Do a tatis
Im still using an 11.5 baseball glove lol
Hi
13 is my smallest and used for 2 but most of the time in the outfield I use a 15"
Soo you don’t play baseball? Just slow pitch softball ?
We’re trying to get a baseball team together but for some reason it’s been hard to get enough guys
12.5 seems to be minimum for slowpitch, I have guys on my team using 14.5 to help get those HOT balls coming 90+ off the bat
As long as they can get the glove there in time bigger is sorta better, that’s awesome
No softballs are going 90+ off the bat🤣
@@mmbleachtasty6121 prove me wrong 😂
Yeah I think that’s the one thing ballgloveking didn’t take into account. I use a 12.5” at 2nd/SS and it’s great for church league. However for more competitive leagues where the guys are hitting the ball at 90-100 exit velos….it feels too small.
@@mmbleachtasty6121 SlowpitchBatBros on youtube
I made 101 likes and my 44 is coming tomorrow!!!
Nice! Good luck breaking that thing in
Sell me a 12.5 need it bad lol
Sorry my guy I got nothing right now lol
Come on!!! Lol I been watching your videos for a few years now you have more gloves than a hospital lol… I know you can make and adjustment 🙏🏼 I know you probably don’t need the money but I’ll buy it 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 do it for a Fan
So 14 is too big
Join a men's baseball league. Men's none of these are softball gloves
worship of the ball....
