AKADEMA APM40 - PRAYING MANTIS - 33.5" MODEL CATCHER'S MITT
The Akadema APM40 is a 33 1/2'' spiral-lock web. APM40 has a double sided slim padding with triple hammock open back and deep pocket. Much
like in the insect world where the Praying Mantis
is known to devour it's competition, Akadema's new catcher's mitt will do the
same to conventional catcher's mitts. The
Akadema patent pending Praying
Mantis is the most innovative catcher's
mitt ever to hit the market, with many unique features setting it apart from the
competition. With new patent pending "Stress Wedge" technology, located
between the index finger and thumb, the Praying Mantis offers shock absorbing
protection for the hand against injury and sting when receiving the ball. The
Praying Mantis also offers two additional "Finger Hammocks" allowing
the fingers to be firmly positioned and more secure in the glove. Additional features
include the "Double-sided Slim Padding" allowing for increased pocket
size and easier ball retention. Uniquely designed shape allows the throwing hand
easier access into the pocket, resulting in a quicker glove to hand transfer and
faster times to second base. The Praying Mantis also features a "Double Flexhinge"
which makes the glove snap closed on contact. |
