Game-ready feel for developing first basemen.

The M2 SoftHide first base mitt is crafted from premium cowhide leather, offering a soft, lightweight feel with minimal break-in. Built for younger or developing players, this glove provides a secure pocket that makes scooping throws and making quick tags easier. Its flexible structure gives players confidence at the bag without the stiffness of a pro-level mitt, making it an excellent choice for travel and youth competition.

  • Leather: SoftHide (Premium Cowhide)

  • Break-In: Minimal

  • Recommended For: Youth / Travel / Intermediate

  • Key Feature: Soft, forgiving pocket with easy closure for quick scoops and tags

  • Lifespan: 2–3 Seasons or Longer

Ideal for players who want a game-ready first base mitt with a comfortable, reliable feel from day one.

*Lifespan ultimately depends on upkeep and frequency of use. A travelball player using their glove year-round with multiple practices each week will see natural wear more quickly than a recreational player who plays once or twice a week with a single seasonal practice schedule. Proper care and maintenance can significantly extend the glove’s life regardless of the level of play.

Glove Fit

A glove that fits correctly improves control and confidence, breaks in more evenly, reduces hand fatigue, and ultimately feels like a natural extension of the player’s hand. At SBX Fastpitch, fit isn’t an afterthought — it’s engineered into every glove to match the way fastpitch athletes actually play.

*Signature Fit

Designed specifically with female athletes and smaller, slimmer hands in mind.

  • Shorter finger stalls
  • Narrower wrist opening
  • Adaptive wrist tie
  • Easily adjust 6"-6.5"
  • More secure, locked-in feel

This fit helps eliminate excess space inside the glove, improving control and making it easier to close and break in properly.

Standard Fit

Designed for adult players who prefer a traditional hand opening and finger stall.

  • Standard finger stalls
  • Standard wrist opening
  • Adaptive wrist tie
  • Easily adjust 7"-7.5"
  • Familiar, classic glove feel

This fit is ideal for players with larger hands or those who prefer a more traditional glove fit.

While SBX offers different fit profiles, the wrist on both Standard Fit and Signature Fit gloves is adjustable. The difference comes down to personal preference — some players like a more locked-in, snug feel, while others prefer a bit more room. Choosing the right fit is about what feels most comfortable and gives you the best control when you play.
