1.5 stars - disappointment from Mizuno fan Sep 13, 2011
By M. Kauffman 2 stars is too many, but 1 seems a little harsh. I bought these because I have been a Mizuno baseball equipment convert for a few years. I even had a pair of the original (Techfire?) Rickey Henderson gloves back in high school (circa 1990 - the ones with the padded fingers!). I love Mizuno shoes (9-spike, lightweight) and socks and warmups.
I really liked the design of these batting gloves but once I started using them in the batting cage, I found out they pretty much suck. They were stiff and the palm has no grip at all. The bat feels like it will fly free on every swing (I use both wood w/athletic tape & pine tar on handle and aluminum with leather wrap). The stitching in the thumb, where it meets the palm, is a little bulky and uncomfortable also. I keep these in my bag for an emergency. They might be ok as base running gloves, but I don't really steal bases any more. I cannot comment on their longevity as they will never get enough use to wear them out!
For 2011, I went back to the tried and true Original Rawlings Workhorse (fantastic glove but they usually struggle to last an entire season of 40+ games + batting practice). I might try the Mizuno Global Elite gloves for next season (2012). I found some at a sporting goods store and really liked the palm and overall feel/flexibility, but they only had white. I am waiting to see if they come out with an all black pair.

Mizuno Big Let Down Mar 29, 2011
By Liz I bought these for my son who found them online and loved the color and design. He wore them for less than two weeks and they have torn and are unwearable. Someone had told me that they would tear and I didn't really belive them. I thought maybe they just didn't take of them. No, two weeks, and they are gone. Waste of money.

I was tossed as to the proper size to get so once I tried the gloves on I wanted to provide detailed measurements to help others:
Measurements of my hand with hand wide open: Widest position above thumb across the palm: 88.4mm or 3.5" Distance from end of middle finger to under ball of thumb (heal of hand): 188.5mm or 7.42" ~7 7/16" Length of middle finger from tip to top of web of skin between fingers on the shorter open side: 85mm or 3.35" ~3 3/8"
I purchased large and the fit is perfect. I had a Minzuno batting glove years ago extremely similar in design and that was why I bought Mizuno again. My only complaint was as it went through wet/dry sweat cycles the diameter of the full leather fingers shrunk. I finally cut the finger tip off the index finger because other than being too tight at the end I really liked the glove. I have not used this one yet so only time will tell but had I tried this in a store I would have certainly purchased exactly the size I did.
Five stars for now as the product is exactly as I expected and I had no trouble with the older version.

Broken Product Mar 09, 2012
By Billy It was torn when I received. It is irksome to return it that's why I just keep it. One more, it is too small. I ordered M. (178 cm tall, 70kg weight, smaller hand than average)
