FAQ
Youth Sliding Mitts are baseball accessories designed to cover the hand and wrist during base running. They typically feature a padded hand area, a protective finger shield and a wrist strap for a secure fit.
Look for a comfortable wrist strap, breathable materials, flexible construction and a sturdy hand shield. Some designs include separate left- and right-hand versions, so choose the style that fits the player's preference.
Many Youth Sliding Mitts are designed for a specific hand, while others can be worn on either hand. Check the product details to identify the intended hand and choose based on how the player runs the bases.
Place the mitt over the hand with the fingers aligned inside the finger cover, then secure the wrist strap so it feels snug and comfortable. The protective shield should sit over the back of the hand.
After use, wipe the mitt with a soft, damp cloth and allow it to air-dry fully. Avoid soaking the mitt or using harsh cleaners, and store it in a cool, dry place between games.
