Pros: Quite a bit lighter than her regular 2000 all leather Osterman while still maintaining the same leather quality on the palm side. Also has the same palm/finger curvature as in the 2000 12 1/2" glove. My daughter loves it and it is her first choice for practice even when she is pitching. She is a tall 14u and it fits her hand very well. Don't think it is going to get "floppy" compared to many others.
Cons: None yet. Don't expect any either.
Since it's introduction in 1957, the original Wilson A2000 Series has set the standard for premium quality ball gloves. Developed together with engineers, craftsmen and Major League players such as Evan Longoria, Greg Maddux and Ivan Rodriguez, the A2000 Series is the ultimate defensive tool. Used on MLB fields since 1998, the A2000 SuperSkin models were developed to be as lightweight as possible, without sacrificing performance or durability. SuperSkin repels moisture and and reduces the overall weight of the glove while still being 2x stronger than conventional leather. The SuperSkin models strategically place American Pro Stock leather at certain points to give it even more rugged durability. This durability is enhanced even further with Dual-Welting pre-curved finger design that helps the pocket keep its shape and stay stable. This 12.25 Inch first base model features a Single Post Web and is ideal for first basemen looking for a mitt with the lightest possible play weight. Put millions of hours of passion for excellence in the palm of your hand with a Wilson A2000 SuperSkin glove! Wilson: The Official Glove of Major League Baseball. Free Shipping!

Pros: My daughter (14U) has never had a first basemen glove. After 5 minutes of catch, she absolutely loves it. This glove breaks in fairly fast and is usable after one night of treatment. Being 13 years old, she can handle this glove well, while some of the other first basemen gloves (13") seemed huge compared to this one. But the glove is definitely not too small, it fits a 12" softball just fine in a well-designed web. This is her favorite glove so far, and I bet that she uses it at both first base and in the outfield.

Ask QuestionI have a 14 year old who plays first base she is 5 foot 10. Is this a good size glove for her or should i look for a bigger one? I am looking for one that will last awhile.
Asked by sharebear on Apr 10, 2012
The average size first base mitt for a 14 year old playing fastpitch softball is 12.5 inches. Especially if she's a little taller than average, I would recommend at least a 12.5 inch model.

This Mitt works for adults or just for kids and female??
Asked by Leo on Mar 15, 2012
This mitt can really work for anyone that wants to use it. Since it is a fastpitch mitt, it will be more designed for female hands though.

Can this mitt be used by a big handed male?? or its just for female??
Asked by Batileo on Mar 14, 2012
This glove can be used by a male or female. However, since it is a fast pitch glove, it will be more tailored to fit a female hand.

hello, i have a 10 yo little girl who plays first and pitcher in travel and rec ball. she is very tall at 5'7" and has long fingers. is this the right glove or should i get a bigger one?
Asked by Mac on Mar 09, 2012
Actually, a 12.25 inch first base mitt should be perfect for your daughter. A 12.25 inch first base mitt is a common size for girls around 12 or 13 years old. Since she is above in height and hand size, I think this size would fit her great

My duaghter is a taller 13 year old girl playing at first base in fastpitch softball. I was looking for a nice mitt for her and seem to be coming back to a few brands: Wilson A2000 FPB11SS, Worth LFPXFB, Louisville Slugger Catalyst, and the Akadema. I even saw the Vinci mitt, but I am not sure that is a softball glove. Have you seen or felt these gloves, and if so, any suggestions on which is better? (I was a little concerned about the A2000 smaller size, but maybe that's not such a bad thing). Price is not a major issue.
Asked by Brad on Jan 25, 2012
Wow, good options in gloves. The A2000 will have a more stiff feeling at first but with some breaking in will be a great glove. These gloves are high end choices and will last her many of seasons. We do allow you to order as many gloves as you like and return them within 100 days. She can oil all of them, use them and pick the one she likes best.

Is there a difference between a softball first base mitt verse a baseball first base mitt that are equal size, 12.5"?
Asked by Renee on Dec 31, 2011
The pockets are different on softball specific gloves. They are bigger to accomodate the bigger softball. The 12.5" is actually the same per baseball and softball, as the glove is measured while the leather is laying flat, before the gloves are stitched together.

Does this glove have a nice deep pocket?
Asked by Patti on Nov 14, 2011
It has a nice pocket that once broken in around a softball, is a great deep pocket.
