Mizuno Solar Shift Technology — How It Works
Mizuno’s Solar Shift line features UV-reactive Runbird wrist logos that respond to sunlight in real time. Under standard indoor lighting or overcast skies, the logo appears White. Step into direct sunlight and watch it instantly shift to a vivid Purple. The transition is automatic, reversible, and fully integrated into the glove’s wrist strap — pure science that works every time you take the field.
Paired with the proven Pro Select construction, the GPS-40RSS brings together Solar Shift style and the leather quality trusted by infielders from high school diamonds to collegiate programs across the country.

Frequently Asked Questions — Mizuno GPS-40RSS
What size is the Mizuno Pro Select Solar Shift GPS-40RSS?
The GPS-40RSS measures 11.5 inches, making it an excellent choice for middle infielders (SS, 2B) and corner infielders (3B) who need a compact, responsive pocket for fast ball security and accurate throws. It is not recommended for outfield use.
How does the UV color-changing Runbird wrist logo work?
The Solar Shift Runbird logo is treated with UV-reactive technology. It displays as White under normal indoor or shaded outdoor lighting. When exposed to direct UV sunlight, it shifts to a vibrant Purple — automatically and instantly. Move out of direct sun and it returns to White. No batteries, no charging, no activation required.
What leather is the Mizuno GPS-40RSS made from?
Mizuno constructed the GPS-40RSS with their proprietary Steer-Hot Leather — a premium cowhide designed for a faster-than-average break-in period while maintaining the structural firmness and longevity needed for a full competitive season. It performs well right out of the box and continues to improve with use.
What web style does the GPS-40RSS feature?
The GPS-40RSS uses Mizuno’s Deep 3 Web design with outline embroidered Runbird logos worked into the web. The deep pocket profile provides reliable ball security on hard-hit grounders and line drives, while supporting the quick, clean transfers infielders need at every level of play.
Does this glove need to be broken in before games?
Mizuno Steer-Hot Leather is engineered for a faster break-in experience than many premium leather gloves. Apply a light coat of Mizuno glove oil or conditioner, work the pocket by hand, and play catch regularly. Most players have the GPS-40RSS game-ready within a few sessions. The glove’s structure continues to conform to your hand throughout the season.
