Baseball Gloves and Mitts

A good baseball mitt isn't just a glove; it's your partner in crime on the field. Whether you're snagging grounders in the infield or chasing down fly balls in the outfield, your mitt is key to making those highlight-reel plays. The right fit, webbing and materials can make all the difference in your performance and confidence. Top brands like Rawlings, Wilson and Mizuno have got you covered with a wide range of mitts designed for every position and skill level. Shop Hibbett, online or in-store, to browse our selection and find the perfect mitt to unleash your inner MVP.

Finding the Perfect Baseball Glove

A game of stickball in an empty lot. Playing catch in the backyard. The roar of the crowd as a player rounds the bases. While the game of baseball is iconic, a baseball glove is a rite of passage. Often, your first introduction to the game comes in the form of gently shaping that stiff piece of leather into a well-oiled mitt designed to perform on the field. At Hibbett, we look forward to connecting youth with their first Little League gloves and more seasoned players with baseball gloves and mitts designed for their on-field positions.

Baseball Gloves That Last

Just like the timeless quality of America’s favorite game, each glove should last for years to come. That’s why we carry baseball gloves and mitts from top-quality brands like Under Armour, Easton, Franklin, Mizuno, Rawlings and Wilson. Premium leathers, along with moisture-wicking linings, ensure rugged durability season after season.

The Perfect Position

The right glove for your position should fit like, well, a glove. A pitcher’s glove is lightweight and features closed webbing to deliver a game-winning combo of craftiness and speed. An outfielder’s glove is long and deep for fly balls and diving catches. The pockets for these gloves often feature a modified trapeze or “H” web design to field balls with ease. Infielders’ gloves are smaller, with a shallower, more open pocket to get the ball out of the glove quickly during lightning-speed plays. First base gloves see plenty of blistering catches, so the glove offers more protection. The longer length and increased flexibility allow the first baseman to easily scoop up throws. A catcher’s mitt includes closed webbing, a more rounded shape and extra padding for those fastballs.

The Old Ball Game

There’s something about the smell and feel of a fresh leather glove that gets oiled and conditioned for the perfect fit. Baseball gloves are all about the game, but they’re also one of those formative memories that sticks with any player.

Hibbett carries the same nostalgia for the game of baseball. That’s why we carry all the equipment you or your little player needs, whether he’s playing his first game of T-ball or heading to a minor league career. Visit us in-store or online to find the perfect baseball glove.
