PROFESSIONAL OUTFIELDER'S GLOVES

 

 




"In all my years in baseball, I feel Akadema produces the best gloves I've ever seen. They have great quality and are made more position-specific than any other manufacturer."

At Akadema® Professional, we have not only designed a glove line with a professional and collegian player in mind, but also players of all ages and abilities. Each glove is tailor-made for selected positions with the sole purpose of raising a player's performance on the field. Tony Fiore

1. Akadema uses only the top USA Steerhide for its Professional Series Gloves. The Professional Glove series uses US Steerhide on the glove shell, palm lining, finger lining, and binding. Akadema uses the leather from the back and shoulder area for a strong thick glove.

2. The Professional Series uses the top ¼" USA rawhide for its laces. Stronger sewing and welting techniques have strengthened the Akadema glove.

3. Infield and outfield gloves have "laced through fingers." This lacing procedure makes the glove easier for a player to tighten and maintain.

4. Using a method started by Major League equipment managers, all open web infield gloves have reinforced lacing to strengthen the shell and pocket for less tearing in the pocket and a stronger overall glove.

5. Akadema does not use pre oiled /conditioned leather in its Pro Series infield, pitching and outfield making the glove lighter and stronger for professional use.

Professional Series Reptilian Claw

 

Right or Left Throw

$149.95

 

Akadema® continues to revolutionize the glove industry with its unique position by position patented technology gloves. The Reptilian Claw ™ continues the evolution and is the most innovative outfield glove on the market today. The Reptilian Claw™ was designed specifically for an outfielder to raise his performance on the field. For years professional outfielders have been forcing their five fingers into three small fingerstalls as well as fabricating an artificial hinge into the thumb area for their gloves to create a deeper pocket and easier close. In response the patent pending Reptilian Claw™ offers three wider finger stalls which are much larger than a regular glove as well as a Doubleflexed Hinge™ for easier collapse points in the pocket. These unique features allow for more comfort, easier closing and increased pocket size. The Reptilian Claw™ is made of top US Steerhide with 1/4" rawhide lacing and has a modified Flytrap ™ web design.

"The Reptilian glove gives traditionalist reason to make a change."
Baseball Weekly.com
"The baseball glove has come a long way in the last century, and Akadema takes it one step further with its new Reptilian line of gloves.
Junior Baseball
"The Reptilian's near finger-less design sets it apart from the ordinary glove."

Baseball America
Not to be outdone (by 2001's Reptilian's infield glove) Akadema has come up with a outfielders glove in mind. With a double hinged pocket, it provides plenty of room for fly balls. Perhaps more importantly it provides an easier way for outfielders to position their hands with the glove.
Junior Baseball The Reptilian Claw is a unique 3 finger stall glove.
