The Mizuno Samurai is built for the young catcher who's done dabbling and ready to own the position. Designed for players ages 7–13, this mitt is engineered to fit snug on youth hands — keeping everything locked in and in control behind the plate.
The standout feature is Mizuno's specially designed thumb slot, reinforced with extra padding that wraps your thumb like a cast. Every pitch, every block, every pop — your thumb stays protected from the punishment that comes with catching serious baseball.
Constructed from full-grain leather, the Samurai is built to last. This isn't a one-season mitt. It's the kind of gear that holds up through travel ball grind, tournament weekends, and the reps it takes to become a real backstop.
If your young catcher is ready to commit to the position, put them in gear that matches that commitment.
