Marucci Capitol+ C Type 12" Dual Hinge Pitcher's Glove
Give nothing away on the mound with the Marucci Capitol+ C Type 12" Dual Hinge (Model: MFGCPPSE15). The closed Dual Hinge web fully conceals your hand and pitch grip from batters and base runners, keeping your arsenal unpredictable from first pitch to final out. Marucci's exclusive C Type fit system — featuring a 3D molded thumb insert built for the ergonomic SHIFT hand position — gives pitchers a more natural grip that works with your mechanics, not against them. Combine that with a Japanese-tanned USA Kip leather palm for premium feel and faster break-in, paracord web laces for maximum pocket durability, and dual-density memory foam wrist support, and you have a pitcher's glove that performs as hard as you throw.

The 12" size balances reach on comebackers with the agility needed for bunt coverage, pick-off moves, and quick transfers. Available in both right-hand throw and left-hand throw, the Capitol+ 12" Dual Hinge works for southpaws and right-handers alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the C Type fit system on the Marucci Capitol+?
The C Type fit system features a 3D molded thumb insert designed for the SHIFT hand position. This ergonomic design places the thumb at a more natural angle for pitchers, improving pocket control and comfort through every start, bullpen session, and late-game appearance.
Why does the Dual Hinge web benefit pitchers?
The Dual Hinge is a closed web design that fully conceals the pitcher's hand and pitch grip from the batter and base runners. Preventing hitters from reading your grip before release is a major strategic advantage — and the Dual Hinge delivers that edge on every pitch.
What leather is used in the Capitol+ 12" Dual Hinge palm?
The Capitol+ uses premium Japanese-tanned USA Kip leather in the palm — a lighter, more supple leather that breaks in faster than standard cowhide. Pitchers benefit from the responsive feel during every comebacker and bunt play.
Is the Capitol+ 12" Dual Hinge available in left-hand throw?
Yes — the MFGCPPSE15 is available in both right-hand throw and left-hand throw, making it an excellent choice for left-handed pitchers as well as right-handers.
Why is 12" the standard size for a pitcher's glove?
A 12" glove gives pitchers the reach to handle comebackers, line drives up the middle, and bunt situations, while remaining agile enough for quick transfers and pick-off moves. It is the go-to size for most pitchers from high school through adult leagues.
What are paracord web laces on the Capitol+?
Paracord web laces are ultra-strong synthetic laces in the Capitol+ web pocket. They keep the Dual Hinge web tightly closed and structurally sound through a full season of pitching — far more durable than traditional leather laces under repeated stress.
How does the Capitol+ compare to the Marucci Acadia for pitchers?
The Capitol+ is a premium upgrade for pitchers. It features Japanese Kip leather (lighter and more supple than Acadia's full-grain cowhide), the C Type SHIFT fit system, suede leather back, and paracord web laces. The Acadia uses a standard M Type fit and cowhide construction — both are quality options, but the Capitol+ is built for pitchers who want elite ergonomics and premium materials.
How long does it take to break in the Capitol+ 12" Dual Hinge?
Japanese Kip leather breaks in faster than traditional cowhide. Most pitchers achieve a game-ready feel within 1–2 weeks of regular throwing and conditioning. Apply a quality glove oil and use steam or mallet break-in to speed up the process before your first start.
Does the Marucci Capitol+ 12" Dual Hinge come with a warranty?
Yes, the Capitol+ series is backed by a Marucci manufacturer's warranty. Contact Smash It Sports or Marucci directly for assistance with warranty claims or product support.
