The EvoShield Catcher's Thumb Guard is a protective gel-to-shell guard designed specifically for catchers to shield the thumb from impacts and hyperextension injuries. Molded to fit either the left or right thumb, it begins soft and transforms into a rigid shell within minutes of air activation. Worn comfortably inside a catcher’s glove, it disperses ball impacts rather than absorbing them, reducing strain on the thumb and preventing injuries like jammed thumbs or UCL damage. Ideal for baseball and softball catchers seeking reliable, customized protection that won’t compromise glove fit.
