Mizuno gloves are tyically really good, but this one is a step up from say, a Rawlings glove. Mizuno Classic is made from really soft leather which is optimal for play. I played baseball for over twelve years, and it is still my favorite.

It's a nice looking glove, but it does not have the great leather to take the ball.

The Mizuno Classic gloves are durable, with a nice design, and good for softball. You will not need any leather softener after you break the glove in. When catching the softball, the shape and the size works really well for catching fly balls, but not so well for line drives. This glove is also big enough to shield the sun when you are catching fly balls.

Mizuno baseball gloves are the best. They are made out of very thick leather, and they fit very comfortably. They perform great in the field and they look great too.

I love this glove because of its big pocket. It is well padded and comfortable internally!

The leather breaks easy. After short use, the leather is flimsy. The glove has mesh which does not last.

Too hard. It is not soft enough. Takes too long to break it in. It would require a lot of leather oils to soften the glove which means extra expenses.

When I was little I used to play little league baseball. To be honest, I know the glove I used was a Mizuno but I am not sure what brand type. I do remember that it was more expensive than the Wilson or Rawlings.
