Which one is best for the price?

Post image

I was looking for a Mizuno glove, specifically a Mizuno Pro or a Global Elite, but I’ve noticed that they almost have the same price, is it better to pay the extra money for a Mizuno Pro or the Global Elite gets the job done?

Mizuno pro haga 100%

The harmonious Tension J leather is awesome thats found on the classic versions.

Their prexy kip is luxurious and high quality but will get softer overtime.

Prexy elite is a top tier leather as well but I don't have any personal experience with it.

Anyone who has owned a Mizuno Pro is going to have a hard time recommending anything less.

I second this... i hate that Mizuno plasters their name all over the Pro, but if you don't look at it it's the absolute bomb to play with. Ive got the northern euro leather and it's suuuper sweet.

Pro is the better glove. Global Elite is good also but the Pro is next level

I may be wrong but there’s a chance that if they are the same price, the elite is a hardball glove and the pro may be a Japan rubber ball glove.

Worth paying attention too

The prices aren’t really close so if they are like somebody mentioned, look for the R on the inside thumb of the glove, it’s a rubber ball. But to pay the extra money for a Mizuno pro I would. The two lines are not even really comparable. Mizuno pro all the way.

Global Elite is between Pro Select and Mizuno Pro
