Slowpitch Fielding Gloves

Q: What size glove is best for slowpitch softball?

Most slowpitch players prefer gloves between 12.5” and 14”. Infielders often choose 12.5”–13” for quicker transfers, while outfielders select 13”–14” for added reach and bigger pockets.

Q: Do I need a special glove for slowpitch, or can I use my old baseball glove?

You can use a baseball glove, but a dedicated slowpitch glove performs better due to its larger pocket and softer break-in.

Q: What web styles are best for slowpitch gloves?

H-Web and Dual Post webs are versatile for infield and outfield. Trap-Eze or Modified Trapeze styles are ideal for outfielders, while Closed Webs are often used by pitchers.

Q: How long does it take to break in a slowpitch glove?

High-quality leather gloves may take 100–200 catches to break in. Synthetic gloves break in faster but usually don’t last as long.

Q: Should I choose leather or synthetic for my slowpitch glove?

Premium leather gloves are more durable with better performance but take longer to break in. Synthetic gloves are lighter and cheaper with faster break-in but less durability.

Q: How do I care for my slowpitch glove?

Store it in a dry place, avoid extreme temperatures, use conditioner sparingly, and keep a ball in the pocket when not in use to help maintain shape.

Q: Can I use the same glove for infield and outfield?

Yes, but many serious players prefer using a smaller glove for infield for quicker transfers and a larger glove for outfield for more reach and a deeper pocket.
