Felix Hernandez has been using Nike for the last couple of years, and this year he got his own custom in black with some mariner green. Here’s a look:

As you can see, Hernandez got mesh on his glove. He got a half mesh design, meaning mesh on the back, but not on the thumb or wrist. Pitchers LOVE mesh because it makes their glove lighter for quicker response to a comebacker.

Felix Hernandez’ Glove is 12″ and has a basket web.The basket web is not common on Nike gloves, but is a common pitching web due to the fact that it covers the ball and also has a nice deep pocket.

I wish Nike made a glove like this for the public, but they do not. This is just really sick.
