Japanese Soft Baseball / Hard Baseball Compatibility

In Japan, baseball gloves are generally made for two types of baseball: hard baseball and rubber-ball (soft baseball).

Japanese rubber baseballs are surprisingly hard and are designed to withstand significant impact. Because of this, Japanese soft-baseball gloves can be considerably more durable than many players overseas might expect.

This glove is technically designed for Japanese rubber-ball baseball, but its construction and quality make it durable enough to be used with hard baseball as well.

Many players actually prefer this type of glove because the leather can feel slightly softer and more comfortable, while still providing plenty of strength and durability for serious play.
