The Rawlings R9 ContoUR 32-Inch Catcher's Mitt is a youth catcher's mitt built around a compact CMU pattern and a 1-piece solid web, so young catchers can receive, frame, and throw with precision behind the plate. Its ContoUR fit and adjustable pull-lace wrist let the mitt sit closer to the hand for better control.
The soft, durable all-leather shell and leather lace break in quickly while holding up through the season, and padded fingerback liners with a reinforced palm pad and padded thumb loop add protection on every pitch. The mitt is designed for a right-handed thrower and comes in a Black and Camel finish.
