"YAMAMOTO Pro Essential" A series aiming to be an essential item for all baseball players We have worked on the theme of a glove that can maintain its stiffness, which has been in increasing demand from professional players year after year. The challenge for gloves is summer. How well will a glove that feels good to catch and fits the hand last in the summer? We have tackled this eternal challenge head-on. ・Introduction of the leather used New leather "Dynamic Hard Leather" This leather uses raw hides from Northern Europe with high raw hide strength. This leather offers a firm, solid feel when catching the ball, while also providing dynamic opening and closing performance for the glove. The tanning process focuses on the hardness of the leather surface to easily maintain the arch and shape of the glove. This leather was created with the desire to open and close the glove while maintaining its shape as designed. It is recommended for players who want the glove's performance to guide their hand movements. Rather than allowing the glove to freely express hand movements, it is about guiding the player's hand movements through the glove's opening and closing performance as designed. The leather is tanned to be hard, but it is designed to be flexible in areas that need to be softer, such as the hinge, making it easy to move. It expresses a stiffness that helps the glove retain its shape, rather than stiffness in opening and closing. I believe it is the optimal finish among gloves described as "crisp" or "solid." By selling all gloves pre-broken in, we were able to achieve a balance between movement and stiffness.・New design label "YAMAMOTO STYLE" For this series, rather than emphasizing the presence of the trademark, we focused on the simplicity and unity of the glove design and label design. We wanted to express our Yamamoto style, which simply pursues catching performance, and incorporated simplicity into the design. The design is intended to be simple, and we hope that people will choose based on catching performance and the fit of the glove, rather than on its flashy appearance. The above is the origin of the new logo and the name YAMAMOTO STYLE.
