Batting gloves improve your grip on the bat, especially when your hands are sweaty or the weather is cold. They also reduce sting on mishits and protect against blisters during long batting practice sessions. Many players also wear them when running the bases to protect their hands when sliding.

Measure across your palm and match the brand's chart - batting gloves should fit snug with minimal loose material. Sizing for a younger player? See our youth batting gloves

Leather (like Bruce Bolt) gives the best grip and feel and breaks in to your hand; synthetic and hybrid gloves are lighter, more breathable and easier on the wallet.

Snug like a second skin, with little bunching in the palm - too loose and you lose feel on the bat, too tight and they wear out fast.

Short cuff gloves end at the wrist for maximum wrist mobility and a classic feel. Long cuff gloves, like the Bruce Bolt Premium Pro Long Cuff, extend past the wrist for extra support and a pro look. It’s mostly personal preference.

Some of our best sellers include the Bruce Bolt Premium Pro series, the Nike Alpha, the EvoShield SRZ-1, the Franklin CFX Pro and PowerStrap, the Under Armour Clean Up, and the Easton Walk-Off Ethos. Many are available in adult and youth sizes.

Hand wash them in cold water with a mild soap, then let them air dry away from heat. Never put leather batting gloves in the dryer, which can shrink and stiffen the leather. Keeping two pairs and rotating them helps them last longer.
