Softball gloves don’t release as frequently as fastpitch bats, and any time a major brand releases a new glove model, we are excited and hurry up to test it.<\/p>\n

Easton, one of the major brands in the softball and baseball world, recently released their Professional Collection of fastpitch gloves.<\/p>\n

And wow, are those good.<\/p>\n

Let’s see what makes these gloves great and if they are a perfect option for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Features and construction<\/h2><\/h1><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Since this is the highest-end fastpitch glove<\/a> that Easton makes, you can expect it comes with a lot of great features. Easton has made 6 new patterns for this fastpitch glove series and they make a difference.<\/p>\n

Now, the big difference between the baseball gloves and the softball ones is the size of the pocket. You want a big and deep pocket to easily catch a big softball, and Easton has done just that with these glove series. They have made an even wider and deeper pocket, compared to their other gloves.<\/p>\n

Also, the big feature of these gloves is the webbing – called on these “Quantum Closure System”, which allows you to adjust the fit of the gloves, which is a very important feature.<\/p>\n

And, coming to arguably the most important thing in fastpitch glove construction, you guessed it, the quality of leather it is made from.<\/p>\n

Easton Professional Collection is made from Premium Reserve™ USA steer hide leather, quality leather that can make these Easton gloves compete with the likes of Rawlings and Wilson gloves.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Performance and comfort<\/h2><\/h1><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

A high-end fastpitch glove at this price range must perform well (obviously, it is super important) and have a quick break-in time.<\/p>\n

And these do that both, very well.<\/p>\n

Since these gloves have a full leather lining, break-in time is shorter compared to some other gloves, which we liked very much.<\/p>\n

They have great control and are very comfortable to wear (because of the soft cowhide lining), once you fully break them in.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Great glove series, but they are not for everyone<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Professional Collection is a great fastpitch glove series and definitely an upgrade from the previous model.<\/p>\n

But, it is made for serious players and not for inexperienced ones.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Style<\/h2><\/h1><\/div>

This is not a very important thing to consider when looking for a new glove, but it’s a bonus when a glove is looking great.<\/p>\n

We have always liked the design of almost all of the Easton<\/a> fastpitch glove series, and these are at the top of our list of the best-looking softball gloves.<\/p>\n

The whole series has this beautiful, clean, white\/light brown colorway that just looks fantastic whenever you put them on.<\/p>\n<\/div>
