2018 Marucci Baseball Gloves Line
Aug 30th 2017
Marucci now has a complete line of gloves to meet the needs of every position player at every age and skill level.
WHAT’S NEW?
FOUNDERS’ SERIES: NEW WEB, UPDATED COLOR PATTERNS
Marucci’s top of the line glove series underwent a few minor tweaks in preparation for 2018. After gathering years of market feedback and listening to what players want and need from their glove, we determined the material, construction, and overall feel of the Founders’ Series is still in high demand for the elite player, but a few subtle changes were in order moving forward.
First, we added an 11.5” H-Web to our Founders’ Series offering to give infielders another option to our I-Webs and Single post. The H-Web features the same premium Japanese Kip leather, soft cowhide lining, and professional USA tanned lace. It also has a medium-deep pocket and Big Leaguer-preferred stiffness and weight specification.
Next, we introduced a two-tone, camel/black colorway on most models. The I-Webs, 11.5” H-Web, and Single Post will all have a primary camel outer shell and a black web and inner palm with camel laces and Marucci logo embroidered in black on the outer index finger.
The 12.75” H-Web outfield glove and First Base Mitt features a black outer shell and camel web, inner palm, and laces with the Marucci logo embroidered in camel on the outer index finger.
The 2-piece closed pitcher’s web remains all black with white logo embroidery, while the catcher’s mitts are camel with black accents and embroidery.

HTG SERIES: NEW WEB, UPDATED COLOR PATTERNS
Like the Founders’ Series, the Honor The Game Series also has a new web and updated color patterns. The HTG Series still features premium Japanese tanned, USA A-Grade Steerhide shell leather and professional USA tanned laces, providing a durable, but more game-ready option than the Founders’ Series. The HTG glove is perfect for those players who want a Big League-level glove option that’s a little easier to break-in.
The 11.5” H-Web is a new addition to the HTG line as another popular infielder glove option.
All HTG webs, with the exception of the 12” BT-Web, will feature a new color pattern with a primary black outer shell and gumbo web, wrist back, and inner palm. The laces, fingerback and hand opening linings are camel with a camel patch and gumbo embroidered M logo.
The 12” BT-Web, recommended primarily for pitchers or utility players, will feature an all-camel shell, web, and inner palm with camel laces and patches. The Marucci logos on the outer index finger and patches are gumbo.
NEW GLOVE SERIES: BR450
Built with genuine steerhide leather and soft internal padding, the Marucci BR450 Series fielding gloves are handcrafted to meet Pro-Grade standards with an even faster break-in time than the HTG Series. The BR450 is perfect for that player transitioning from a youth to an adult-size glove, but still soft enough for easy break-in and a familiar feel.
The BR450 Series includes a 11.25” I-Web, 11.5” H-Web, 11.75” Single Post, 12” Pitcher T-Web, 12.5” Outfielder H-Web, 12.5” First Base Mitt, and 32.5” Catcher’s Mitt.
All webs feature a unique color pattern with a gumbo outer shell, camel web, inner palm/laces, and red fingerback linings and embroidered accents.
NEW GLOVE SERIES: RS225
Combining game-ready feel with Big League-tested web designs, the RS225 Series gives youth players a higher-end fielding glove for the confidence they need to excel in the field. The RS225 Series features soft tumble cowhide shell leather, a smaller wrist strap and tighter hand opening, and scaled down finger stalls and hand patterns.
The RS225 Series includes an 11” I-Web, 11.25” Single Post, 11.5” H-Web, 12.5” First Base Mitt, and 31.5” Catcher’s Mitt. All webs feature a black outer shell, camel web and inner palm with mesa laces. The Marucci logo is embroidered in camel on the outer index finger and wrist patches.
GEAUX SERIES MESH: UPDATED COLOR PATTERNS
The Geaux Series Mesh fielding gloves give youth players the most secure, lightweight, game-ready option available on the Marucci line. All webs feature a lightweight mesh back, soft tumble steerhide palm, adjustable hook and fastener closure on the wrist strap, and scaled down finger stalls and hand patterns.
The Geaux Series Mesh includes an 11” I-Web, 11.5” H-Web, 12” Outfield/Utility H-Web, 12.5” First Base Mitt, and 31.5” Catcher’s Mitt. All webs feature a gray mesh outer shell and lacing, and a black steerhide palm, with a black wrist strap, web, and accents on the outer finger stalls.
The new Geaux Series Mesh will be available at maruccisports.com in September.
