The APM 42 is designed with double-sided Slim Padding that increases the size of the pocket. This allows for easy access for a quick glove-to-hand ball transition on the field. The Akadema Precision has a stress wedge technology that makes it easier to open and close, as well as speeding up the break in process.

The pattern comes specifically built to meet the needs of the serious catcher. The Spiral Lock Web is included in the Akadema Precision APM42 to help assist young catchers with keeping the ball secure. Holding the ball secure in the pocket is the number one job of any webbing. The Spiral Lock Web works well in that it does not weigh the glove down. It also does not crease it poorly but instead helps create a secure and consistent close. Special Stress Wedge Technology creates an additional layer of padding between the top layer of leather and the player s hand. This special technology also widens the opening of the Akadema catchers mitt to create a wider target for the pitcher and the catcher s job a little bit easier as a result. Without adding too much weight or overloading it with features, Akadema has created a player friendly catchers mitt perfect for the serious backstop looking for an equipment upgrade. Make sure when breaking in this Akadema catchers mitt that you avoid adding abrasive oils or soaps to the leather. This not only dries out the leather but actually weighs the mitt down, limiting it s effectiveness and player s reaction time.\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32.5 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePraying Mantis Pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral lock Web\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStress Wedge Technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight throw only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Akadema","offers":[{"title":"Right Hand Throw","offer_id":19038424105018,"sku":"APM42-right-hand-throw","price":219.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0119\/0487\/6602\/products\/b1c2637e98d0edfeb7922365c28243d4.jpg?v=1571740742"},{"product_id":"akadema-precision-series-apm41-33-in-catchers-mitt","title":"Akadema Precision Series APM41 33 in Catchers Mitt","description":"\u003ch1\u003eAkadema Precision Series APM41 33 in Catchers Mitt Features:\u003c\/h1\u003e\nThe Akadema Precision Series APM41 33 in Catchers Mitt is created using Precision Kip leather that is 20% more lightweight and tightly-grained compared to steerhide, making it more durable, malleable, and simpler to break in.
