Solid Mitt for Serious Youth Players,

This review is from: Wilson A2403 PUDGE Pro Stock Pudge 32.5 Inch Baseball Catcher's Mitt (Sports)
Selecting a catcher's mitt is a big deal for a catcher. In addition to functioning as the catcher's glove, it's the catcher's primary method of defense against incoming 75-mile per hour projectiles. This is not the time to skimp or go cheap on materials.
If your kid is a catcher, spend the extra money to get him a glove, helmet, chest protector, leggings and knee savers that will hold up to repeated use and abuse. You are the primary advocate for that young person behind the plate. Give him what he needs to win.
This particular catcher's mitt is built to last, and it has a number of features that make it an excellent purchase for catchers at the youth and high school level. First, the leather is good. Beware of catcher's mitts that seem too "soft" or broken-in when you buy them. That's not necessarily a sign of good leather. The Wilson A2403 is very, very stiff out of the box. Know ahead of time that you will have to break this glove in properly in order...Read more

They are advertising the WRONG glove! The picture shows a different glove than what will actually arrive! The actual glove is the much cheaper ak2000 glove and is black and orange. BEWARE!!!

I was going to order this mitt, but there is a review on the site that says this photo is not the photo of the mitt that gets sent out. Are you looking into this? I feel we have a right to know if this is in fact the actual mitt we are ordering.
