Excellent Youth Mitt With Added Thumb Protection
The Mizuno Samurai 33" Youth Catcher's Mitt is an excellent mitt for catchers who are starting to specialize at the catcher position. Especially if they want a mitt to match their commitment to defending the dish!
One of the biggest reasons your young catcher will love this mitt is the extra protection that Mizuno added to the thumb portion. When a catcher slides his hand into this mitt, it is going to feel like they are putting their thumb into a cast within the mitt. While in the mitt, their thumb is tightly secured. As a result, it will be protected from any excess pounding caused by catching a baseball. The enhanced thumb protection helps young catchers prevent jamming and hyperextending when fielding pitches.
This Mizuno Samurai 33" Youth Catcher's Mitt is a great option for players aged 7 years old to 13 years old. However, the snug fit of this youth mitt will keep it nice and tight on a young player's hand. As a result of this small hand fitting, this mitt is not recommended for older teens or adults.
