When it comes to premium baseball gloves, few names command as much respect as the Wilson A2000. For over 70 years, this iconic glove has been the choice of professional and elite amateur players who demand the very best in craftsmanship, durability, and performance.
The A2000 Legacy
First introduced in 1957, the Wilson A2000 was revolutionary for its time and remains a benchmark in glove manufacturing today. What sets the A2000 apart is Wilson's unwavering commitment to using only the finest materials and construction techniques. Each glove is crafted from premium Pro Stock leather that's carefully selected for its durability and ability to form a perfect pocket.
Built to Last, Designed to Perform
The A2000 line features several innovations that make these gloves stand out:
- Pro Stock Leather: The highest quality leather available, chosen for its strength and ability to maintain its shape season after season
- Dual Welting: Provides a durable pocket and helps the glove hold its shape longer
- DriLex Wrist Lining: Keeps your hand cool and dry during intense games
- SuperSkin Technology: Available on select models, this synthetic material is half the weight of leather but just as durable, creating a lighter, faster glove
Finding Your Perfect A2000
The A2000 line offers options for every position. Infielders appreciate the 11.5" and 11.75" models for their quick break-in and responsive feel. Catchers trust the 33.5" mitts for their deep pockets and superior protection. Outfielders rely on 12.5" models for their extended reach and secure ball retention.
At Kinni Sporting Goods, we stock a range of A2000 models including specialized editions like the Shriners Children's and Love The Moment collections, which combine elite performance with meaningful causes.
The Break-In Process
While A2000 gloves are known for their quality, they do require proper break-in. The premium leather needs time to form to your hand and playing style. Many players find that with regular use and proper conditioning, an A2000 develops the perfect pocket within a few weeks—and then performs flawlessly for years.
An Investment in Your Game
Yes, the A2000 commands a premium price, but serious players know it's an investment that pays dividends. These gloves are built to withstand thousands of catches, maintaining their shape and performance long after lesser gloves have worn out. Many players use the same A2000 for multiple seasons, making it a smart long-term choice.
