The Wilson 2027 A500 11.5" Youth Infield Baseball Glove is built for young infielders ages 6 to 10. Its 11.5" size is easy for small players to handle, helping them field grounders cleanly and get the ball out fast.
Top grain leather gives the A500 a lightweight, all-leather build that young players can close right away and that breaks in over just a few practices. Real leather laces add strength, and Front Side Double Palm Construction places a thin leather layer under the palm to stabilize the pocket.
Short, narrow finger stalls are sized for small hands, and the elastic Quick-Fit Self-Adjusting Wrist connects to the pinky to hug the back of the wrist as the player grows. Rolled Dual Welting helps the glove keep its shape, finished with traditional rolled finger binding.
