Firstbase Gloves
First base mitts sized for softball - long and flexible for scooping picks - for fastpitch and slowpitch, from our softball gloves range.
How to choose: go about 13" for reach and a forgiving pocket, and keep a fielding glove for the rest of the infield.
A softball first base mitt is a long glove with no individual fingers and a wide, deep pocket built for the bigger softball. It helps first basemen catch throws from infielders, scoop balls out of the dirt and stretch to make the out.
Most softball first base mitts range from 12.5" to 13". Slowpitch players sometimes go up to 13.5" for maximum reach. Younger fastpitch players usually do best with a 12.5" mitt that’s easier to close. See our glove size chart for more details.
Yes. Fastpitch first base mitts are often designed with a narrower hand opening and are built for the faster pace of fastpitch. Slowpitch first base mitts tend to be bigger, with a deeper pocket for catching throws in adult recreational and competitive leagues. Browse all fastpitch gloves and slowpitch gloves.
Play catch, field short hops and work the mitt along its natural break point to form a deep pocket. For a game-ready mitt faster, try our Mitt Master glove break-in service or our glove break-in products, and keep the leather soft with glove care products.
