The 2027 A2K 1724 is an 11.75” glove for infielders who like to play with two fingers in the pinky stall. Handmade in Japan by expert craftsmen, each A2K is the product of decades of experience poured into hours of labor spent assembling, shaping and perfecting. Exclusive Double Palm Construction implements an additional layer of leather that maintains a smooth palm and ideal pocket shape during the break-in process and throughout the life of the glove by enhancing pocket stability.
A pattern that continues growing in popularity, the 1724 was designed to accommodate infielders who play with two fingers in the pinky stall. Altered finger stalls and a modified wrist opening give players more leverage at the ends of the hand, helping to funnel the ball firmly into the pocket and snap the glove shut. The 11.75” H-Web build gives players extra reach for shutting down the holes while staying nimble enough to react to hard hit balls and challenging hops. Our trademark Dual Welting helps maintain ideal shape throughout the life of the glove.
The A2K is made with Pro Stock Select leather, which represents just the top 5% of Wilson leather hides. We finely inspect every hide, with only the softest, most flawless pieces making the cut to be used for our most premium glove line. Blonde and Black Pro Stock Select leather pair with Red outlined logos to give this glove a lethal look on the infield dirt.
- Pro Stock Select Leather: Pro Stock Select leather hides are triple-sorted, a fine inspection process reviewing the leather at least three times to identify the top 5% for ideal qualities of softness, stretch and durability.
- Double Palm Construction: Expert craftsmen insert an extra layer of thin leather between the palm shell and liner, extending along the palm and fingers to enhance pocket stability, form the glove during the break-in process and maintain its shape through frequent use.
- Rolled Dual Welting: Dual Welting in Wilson gloves goes beyond a mere cosmetic effect, as it’s integrated into the liner of each infield, outfield and pitcher's model, offering better support and helping your glove hold its shape better over time.
- DriLex Wrist Lining: Keeps your hand dry and comfortable on the field and behind the dish
- Bold Logos: Bold logos strip away the distractions, allowing outlined, eye-catching Wilson logos to announce a new era in the iconic story of Wilson Ball Gloves.
- Expert Japanese Craftsmanship: Manufactured entirely in Japan by craftsmen who have been making ball gloves for decades, the A2K is formed to the perfect shape over 18 hours of labor.
