Every young ballplayer dreams of that perfect glove that feels like an extension of their own hand. The Rawlings Heart of the Hide baseball glove isn't just equipment—it's a partner in every game, practice, and memorable catch. When you hand your child this premium glove, you're giving them more than just leather; you're giving them confidence, comfort, and the tools to excel.
What makes the Heart of the Hide special? It starts with the material. Rawlings uses only top-grade U.S. steerhide, the same material trusted by countless professional players across the majors. This isn't mass-produced leather—it's carefully selected for its grain structure, durability, and ability to break in naturally over time. The result is a glove that feels better with each use, molding to your child's hand for that perfect, custom fit.
Inside this premium glove, Rawlings has thought about every detail. The deer-tanned cowhide palm provides soft, flexible comfort that reduces sting during hard throws, while full-grain fingerback linings prevent irritation during long practices. The padded thumb sleeves add extra protection, and the pro-grade laces ensure the glove maintains its shape and support through season after season of aggressive plays.
Whether your child is chasing fly balls in the outfield or fielding grounders at shortstop, the Heart of the Hide delivers consistent performance. The advanced break-in process means this glove plays well from day one, so your young athlete won't waste valuable practice time trying to soften up stiff leather. Available in sizes 11.5" to 12.5", there's a perfect fit for every position and playing style.
When game day arrives, this glove will be ready. It's the kind of equipment that builds memories—game-winning catches, perfect double plays, and the pride that comes from knowing you're playing with the best. Give your young athlete the gift of premium performance with a glove that's built to win.
