Mizuno 120th Anniversary Pro Select 11.5" Baseball Glove

120 Years of Passion. One Standard of Performance.

For 120 years, Mizuno has been an integral part of the game of baseball. The Mizuno GPS-40R1906 120th Anniversary Pro Select is a limited edition tribute to that legacy — blending timeless craftsmanship with the performance standards that have made Mizuno a trusted name on diamonds at every level.

Inspired by Mizuno's iconic company colors from the 1980s and '90s, this glove pairs a bold retro color palette with the modern excellence of the Pro Select glove family. The exclusive silicone Runbird with a contrasting white outline makes this piece as visually distinctive as it is performance-ready. This is not just a glove — it's a piece of baseball history.

Why the GPS-40R1906 Stands Apart

The Mizuno Pro Select line has long set the standard for premium baseball fielding gloves, and the GPS-40R1906 takes that reputation to another level. Mizuno Steer-Hot Leather delivers a notably faster break-in than traditional steer hide, so you spend less time conditioning and more time making plays. The Deep 3 Web pattern creates the perfect pocket depth for infielders who need reliable ball control and fast transfers.

The 1906 Commemorative Deer Skin palm liner is a nod to Mizuno's founding year — a detail that gives this glove both historical resonance and a noticeably softer feel during long games. Combined with the Royal Foil Palm Stamp and silicone Runbird logo, the GPS-40R1906 is as visually striking as it is functionally superior.

Built for Infielders — 11.5" Deep 3 Web

At 11.5 inches, the Mizuno GPS-40R1906 is optimally sized for infield positions. The Deep 3 Web keeps the pocket shallow enough for fast-twitch transfers at shortstop and second base, while still offering the security needed at third base. Whether you're backhanding balls in the hole or turning double plays, this glove delivers the responsiveness elite infielders demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What positions is the Mizuno GPS-40R1906 best suited for?

The 11.5" GPS-40R1906 is designed for infield play. The Deep 3 Web creates an ideal pocket depth for shortstops, third basemen, and second basemen who need quick, secure ball transfers. It is not recommended as a pitcher's or outfielder's glove due to the shallower pocket and open web design.

What leather is used in the Mizuno GPS-40R1906?

The GPS-40R1906 uses Mizuno Steer-Hot Leather, a proprietary treatment that produces a faster break-in period than standard steer hide while retaining long-term durability and shape. The palm liner is 1906 Commemorative Deer Skin, chosen for its softness and historical significance to the brand.

Is the GPS-40R1906 game-ready straight out of the box?

Steer-Hot Leather breaks in faster than traditional steer hide, but we still recommend a proper break-in process for best results. Apply a quality glove conditioner, work the pocket by hand, and use a glove mallet or ball to form the pocket before your first game. Check our baseball accessories collection for conditioning products.
