Best thing is to let your son try some on at the stores to see what he likes. nokona will last forever and the leather is like saddle leather, a bit heavier and stiffer than most, but excellent quality. Wilson makes good gloves, but neither of my boys likes the pocket or the palm. They both settled on Rawlings pro preferred gloves. They are very good quality, a bit lighter and feel very good on the hand. Mizuno makes a good glove, just don’t know about the long term durability of them. 44 pro is pretty new to the market, unsure of those. We have only used nokona conditioner on any of them, best stuff made for keeping the glove conditioned. You can buy whatever your budget allows, but a higher quality glove will last a long long time. I would go with all leather also. We spent some money on baseball gloves. My son started at age 3 and we bought 3 Nokonas through youth baseball and travel. We only bought a new one when he outgrew his old one. Nokonas are the best period. They break in really fast, hold up great and have a great feel for the player.

My youngest son is 13 and im looking for a used first base mitt on ebay as we speak. Its a position he will only play every now and then but wants a mitt. No way im spending $200+ on a 1B mitt.

He loves it. Great quality glove but doesn’t break the bank that is what my son uses for his 8U travel team in alabaster. at academy it was right at $100, breakin time was near nothing but the more you play catch (and i mean sho nuff throwing and not just playing toss the ball) it should last him well into middle school ball... Turkey’s tell you when they want to die not lawmakers.

BUT I wouldn't go the 44 route until they are 8+ years old. Last edited by DaffyDucksWorstNightmare; 02/22/22 10:04 AM.

I got him a glove that’s a tad too big, 11 1/4, Rawlings leather. It’s broke in and he’s a vacuum with grounders and about 80% in the air. I even went high dollar on a composite bat and he’s booming it to the outside fence. the joy he’s getting from the better equipment has been priceless. Carry on

Don't need expensive glove until later. Once your able to tell what position he'll play primarily then make a purchase. And eBay can be your friend on used.

When I could see baseball was going to be his thing, I bought my son a Rawlings Primo at age 11. I caught some grief from other dads spending that kind of money on a glove, yet these were the same dad's buying their son a $400 bat every spring. He still has his primo and he's 25. To me, spending big money on bats each year is blowing money up a hogs rear end. A new bat every year isn't going to make them hit better. Time in the cage and hard work will.
