The R9 glove is designed for a smaller hand and features an adjustable wrist strap, making it more comfortable for youth players. Despite this, the glove's design gives it the appearance of a high-quality adult glove. It's also game-ready and features shock absorption. This glove is great for younger players looking to develop their skills due to its smaller hand size, but it also comes in an adult version. With proper conditioning, the glove should last a long time. However, the leather breaks in very fast, which could cause the glove to become floppy, making it challenging to keep the glove open.
