WILSON Infield Training Glove 10" Trainer Right Hand Throw, Black/Red, Full-Grain Leather Drawstring Wrist

Wilson's compact 10" infield training glove helps players lock their hands down, track grounders into the pocket, and build consistent fielding habits.

Designed as a focused drill tool rather than a game-day mitt, the Wilson Infield Trainer is a small, purposely sized glove that forces players to keep their eyes on the ball and funnel throws into a tight pocket. The trainer uses full-grain leather for a soft, responsive feel with minimal bulk, and a drawstring wrist closure for quick adjustments during practice. It’s offered in a bold black-and-red finish with clear Wilson branding so players can train with a professional look while developing cleaner fundamentals.

What makes this trainer different from a regular infield glove?

This is a purpose-built training aid: at 10" it’s smaller than standard infield gloves to encourage players to stay low and secure ground balls directly into the pocket. The reduced surface area helps eliminate sloppy catches and promotes a direct hand-to-glove action that translates back to full-sized gloves.

• 10" compact profile forces better hand-eye coordination
• Full-grain leather offers a soft, low-bulk feel
• Drawstring wrist provides a snug, stable fit during drills
• Right-hand throw configuration suits typical infield practice routines

How does this glove improve fielding grounders?

Because the trainer’s pocket and overall size are intentionally small, players must track the ball visually into the glove and finish each play down into the pocket. Repeated use builds muscle memory for staying low on ground balls and funneling them toward the throwing hand.

• Smaller target area emphasizes proper hand placement
• Repetitive drills develop consistent low-fielding mechanics
• Helps with quick transfers back to the ball for throws
• Bold design reduces distractions so players focus on technique

How do I adjust and break the trainer in for practice?

The glove comes with a drawstring-style wrist closure so you can tighten or loosen the fit instantly between reps. Break-in is quicker than larger game gloves because of the reduced leather volume; light shaping, targeted hand exercises, and repetitive ground-ball drills will open the pocket without unnecessary effort.

• Use the drawstring wrist to secure the glove during drills
• Perform short, focused ground-ball repetitions to form the pocket
• Apply minimal leather conditioner if needed to preserve suppleness
• Avoid heavy pounding—small gloves break in faster naturally

What materials is it made from and how should I care for it?

The trainer uses black full-grain leather for durability and a soft, low-bulk feel. Rawhide laces supply the adjustable closure and long-lasting structure. Basic leather care keeps the glove performing session after session without altering its training purpose.

• Full-grain leather for responsive feel and resilience
• Rawhide drawstring for quick, reliable adjustment
• Wipe clean after use; condition sparingly to maintain stiffness
• Store in a cool, dry place to prevent drying or mildew

Who is this for: The Wilson 10" Infield Trainer is aimed at youth and high-school infielders, coaches, and trainers who want a simple, effective drill glove to improve ground-ball technique. It’s ideal for players refining fundamentals, teams running focused infield sessions, and instructors who prefer a compact tool that produces repeatable, measurable improvement in fielding mechanics.
