All-Star Japan ASJ-R20 Catcher's Mitt – Made in Japan

The All-Star Japan (ASJ) ASJ-R20 is a handcrafted catcher's mitt built in a specialized mitt workshop in Japan — and rarely seen stateside. If you know, you know.

This mitt features a mid-size 34-inch vertical/deep-pocket pattern built for catchers who want a true pro-grade tool with Japanese craftsmanship behind it. The leather is premium natural steer hide — the same dense grade used in Japanese pro/hardball specs — and the construction shows it.

This specific glove has been shaped and break-in has been started, giving it a head start on the process while still leaving plenty of room to mold it to your hand.
