[Hatakeyama] Limited Edition Hardball Catcher's Mitt, M5 Model, Spring/Summer 2026

This is the Hatakeyama hardball catcher's mitt 2026 Spring/Summer model.

The model is the M5, newly added in 2025.
While it is designed for two fingers in the pinky stall, it can be used with a regular grip and glove angle.
This mitt fully embodies the advantage of the two-finger pinky stall: "catching is possible without exerting too much force."

The wrist opening features Hatakeyama's unique "Pinky Pattern."
By extending the edge leather and adding slits, the durability has been improved compared to conventional models.

The leather used is Special Japan Hide.
Japanese wagyu leather, known for its strength, is finished with a special oil. It has a distinctive moist feel, developing character with each use.

The imprint on the palm reads "心" (kokoro, meaning "heart" or "spirit").
This expresses the sentiment of "responding to every player's request with sincerity."
