12-inch glove for use on the left side of the infield or in the outfield (right thow only). Made with Precision Kip Leather, the AMO-102 features H-web to create a medium-deep pocket for sure stops and easy sighting on pop-ups. Open back style.
Kip leather originated in Europe with tanning in Japan. Akadema uses U.S. steerhide put through this process. The result: Kip leather is 20% lighter and tighter grained than conventional steerhide. As a result Precision gloves are more pliable, easier to break in, with more tensile strength. They cost more but the improvement in fit and playability makes Akadema Precision an excellent choice for the serious ballplayer.
