2026 Wilson A1000 11.75" 1975 Baseball Glove

Secure the "Hot Corner" or patrol the hole at shortstop with the 2026 Wilson A1000 1975 11.75” Infield Baseball Glove, a model designed for players who need a deeper pocket and extra reach without the stiffness of a heavy pro-stock mitt. Modeled after the popular A2000 1975 pattern, this glove is constructed from Wilson’s Full Grain Optima Leather, which delivers a premium, professional feel that is game-ready almost immediately. This "Ready to Play" nature makes the A1000 series the perfect choice for high school athletes and competitive travel ball players who want to upgrade their gear mid-season or simply prefer a softer glove that doesn't require weeks of conditioning. The 1975 pattern is distinct because it offers a deeper pocket than the standard 11.5-inch gloves, allowing infielders to securely snag hard-hit line drives and pick balls out of the dirt with greater confidence, all while maintaining the agility needed for quick transfers.

The engineering of the A1000 1975 is focused on versatility and structural longevity on the left side of the infield. Featuring a classic H-Web, this glove provides the visibility players need to track fly balls into the webbing while offering the flexibility required to scoop grounders. To ensure the glove holds its shape season after season, it utilizes Wilson’s Rolled Dual Welting, a process where thin strips of leather are rolled and stitched into the finger stalls; this supports the glove’s curvature and prevents the fingers from separating or becoming flimsy. Inside, the glove is equipped with a Dri-Lex wrist lining, a specialized moisture-wicking material that keeps your hand cool and dry, ensuring a secure, non-slip grip even during the hottest summer tournaments. The Double Palm Construction further enhances performance by placing a thin layer of leather between the palm liner and shell, stabilizing the pocket and reducing the sting of high-velocity throws.

Choosing the correct glove size is vital for maximizing range and control, and the 11.75-inch profile of the 1975 pattern is the ideal "sweet spot" for third basemen and shortstops. This size is typically recommended for players aged 12 through adult who need slightly more length than a second baseman’s glove to handle the reaction-based plays at third base or the deep-hole range required at shortstop. To determine if this is the right fit for your game, measure from the heel of the palm to the top of the index finger; the 11.75-inch length offers extended reach for diving stops and backhands while still being compact enough for efficient double-play turns. By choosing the 2026 Wilson A1000 1975, you are investing in a glove that offers the deep-pocket security of a larger mitt with the lightweight, quick-response feel necessary to dominate the infield.
