Why Middle Infielders Choose the Summit Pro 1627
The Summit Pro 1627 is a Japanese-inspired infield model purpose-built for the demands of the middle infield. The slightly wider double-laced heel provides added stability at the base of the glove, while the gap welt between the index and middle fingers creates a defined, reliable fielding channel. The shallower pocket — the key to quick, clean transfers — pairs perfectly with the I-web to give shortstops and second basemen the ball-exit speed they need to turn double plays under pressure.
From advanced youth players to professionals, the 1627 consistently earns its place as a gamer at the highest levels of the sport.

The Japanese Kip Leather Advantage
Not all leather is created equal. The Summit Pro 1627 uses hand-selected Japanese Kip leather — regarded among professional glove makers as one of the finest available materials for fielding gloves. Japanese Kip is renowned for its tighter grain structure, which translates to a faster break-in period, superior long-term durability, and a softer feel from day one. Both the shell and palm liner use this material, ensuring structural integrity from the first pitch through years of competitive play.
Built for Shortstops & Second Basemen
The 1627 pattern isn't a general-purpose glove — it's a precision infield tool. The shallower pocket keeps the ball sitting up and accessible for immediate transfers. The I-web provides visibility through the web on pop-ups and short hops, while the gap welt and double-laced heel ensure the glove holds its shape at full dive or full stretch. If your game is built on ranginess, quickness, and making the routine play look effortless, the 1627 is your glove.

Frequently Asked Questions – Emery Summit Pro 1627
Who is the Summit Pro 1627 designed for?
The 1627 is engineered for middle infielders — primarily shortstops and second basemen — ranging from advanced youth players through professionals. Its shallow pocket, I-web, and gap welt construction prioritize the fast, reliable transfers that define elite infield play.
What web style does the Summit Pro 1627 use?
The 1627 features an I-web, selected for its softer feel and ability to facilitate quick ball transfers. The open web also improves visibility on infield pop-ups and gives the glove a lighter, more flexible feel compared to closed-web designs.
What leather is used in the Summit Pro 1627?
The glove is constructed from hand-selected Japanese Kip leather on the shell and palm liner — one of the most respected materials in professional-grade glove manufacturing. Cabretta leather lines the thumb holster and finger backs for added premium comfort.
Why is the 1627 pocket shallower than other models?
A shallower pocket is intentional for infield positions. It keeps the ball sitting higher and more accessible in the glove, dramatically reducing the time between fielding and releasing the ball — a critical advantage for middle infielders making force outs and turning double plays.
Does Smash It Sports ship the Summit Pro 1627 for free?
Yes — free shipping on most orders is standard at Smash It Sports. We also offer a price-match guarantee so you never overpay for premium baseball equipment.
