<p>This page is dedicated to those catcher’s who play at competitive levels whether it be for a youth league, high school, collegiate or even professional.  Many catchers’ can get away with regular equipment but competitive catchers should look into investing in a higher quality set if they want to become the best player possible.  </p>
<p>Although great for a regular catcher, there are some limitations to the less expensive gear that is available.  For starters, most of the inexpensive equipment is mass produced meaning that not has much care has gone into the equipment during production.  The more expensive competitive gear also tends to be longer lasting and provide much more features that a competitive catcher would need.  When playing catcher at a high level the game is much faster and requires the catcher to be more mobile and also more protected.  This is the main advantage of competitive gear as it tends to be built to help instead of hinder game play for a catcher.  </p>
<p>Below is the gear that we recommend for competitive catchers:</p>
<h3>1 – Easton Stealth Catchers Gear</h3>
<p><a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/easton_stealth/"><img src = "/images/easton/stealthset.jpg" class= "alignleft" border = "0"></img></a>Just about anyone who has played baseball has heard of Easton.  You see the logo on gloves, bats, pants and everything else.  <a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/catchers-gear/easton-catchers-gear/">Easton</a> also makes remarkable catchers gear to fit both competitive and recreational players.  On the competitive side of things, Easton’s flagship model is the Easton Stealth which is available in Adult and Intermediate sizes.  For those with specific team colors, the Stealth speed gear comes in Black, Navy, Red, and Royal blue colors.  Catchers that have used this gear have told us the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Wow, this gear has lasted me for two years now catching 3 times a week for a full game</li>
<li>The quality is amazing</li>
<li>My high school son uses this game in game out and loves it</li>
</ul>

</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan = "3"><center><strong><a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/easton_stealth/">Check the latest prices on Easton Stealth gear</a></strong></center></td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>Like almost all other full sets, the Stealth Speed comes fully equipped with a chest protector, leg guards, and helmet.  The chest protector is one of the true beauties of this set as it has been carefully shaped to ensure the best fit possible exists.  The use of pre-curved shoulders and segmented padding in the base provides the catcher with enough mobility so they can’t be slowed down.  Most chest protectors feel bulky and heavy, but the Stealth speed will make it feel like you aren’t even wearing it!  Not only that but with numerous layers of foam, you’ll always be protected.</p>
<p>The Stealth Speed leg guards are some of the most technology advanced that we have ever seen.  The bent knee design is not only cool, but it also keeps your legs protected no matter what position your leg is in.  Similar to the chest protector, these leg guards will feel non-existent allowing you to run around as much as required.  When chasing down fly balls, you will no longer have to worry about bulky equipment holding you back.</p>
<p>The last piece of the Stealth set is the NOCSAE approved helmet.  One of the more common complaints we receive is how much neck pain some catchers are in after a game.  In most cases this is caused by the amount of pressure and weight exerted on the neck by wearing heavy helmet.  The Stealth speed helmet is one of the lightest available despite its strong steel constructed and full ABS shell.</p>
<h3>2 – Mizuno Pro G2</h3>
<p><a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/mizuno_g2gear"><img src = "/images/mizuno/g2set.jpg" class= "alignright" border = "0"></img></a>Another great set to consider for a competitive catcher is the <a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/catchers-gear/mizuno-catchers-gear/">Mizuno</a> Pro G2 series.  Although still a bit new, the Pro G2 has already received great reviews.  Catchers who have worn this gear can’t believe how great it feels and how protected they feel when squatting behind home plate.  Most catchers who end up purchasing equipment from Mizuno will opt for the Samurai series, but the Pro G2 provides many more features that you should consider.  The Pro G2 series is only available in Adult sizes but comes in Black/Grey, Navy/Grey, Red/Grey, and Royal/Grey color options.</p>
<p>As shown in the image below, the Pro G2 uses a unique 4-way stretch construction.  This innovative construction provides the catcher with a great about of mobility as the equipment feels like it is moving along with you.  The surface of the Pro G2 is another perfect example of why this gear is so popular in that it uses low rebound innovations to ensure blocked baseballs are kept as close to your body as possible.  We all know a passed ball can be the difference between winning and losing sometimes.  This gear ensures you are always at your best.</p>

<p>The newly designed Mizuno G2 leg guards will also make you happy.  If you’ve ever worn inexpensive gear, one of the first things you’ll notice is how cheaply made it can feel.  The G2 leg guards feature a metal buckle adjustment system and advanced lining making it one of the best sets available.  With its triple knee design, a catcher will have no issue running after fly balls and chasing down runners when required.</p>

<p>With the economy the way it is right now, we’ve all had to make changes to the way we spend money.  Things that are not necessities such as catchers gear have had to take a back seat to the more important things in life.   Despite what many believe, you can still pick up a quality set of gear at an affordable price.  This page has been created for those looking to save a little more money this baseball season but not be stuck with a useless set of protection!  Our top picks include the Easton Natural and Mizuno Samurai series of gear.</p>
<h3>1 – Easton Natural</h3>
<p>Year after year, one of the most purchased sets of gear is the Natural series made by <a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/catchers-gear/easton-catchers-gear/">Easton</a>.  Just about every baseball players has heard of Easton and knows the quality behind the brand.  Natural gear is no different and can be purchased for under $170 for Adult sized gear.

This light weight chest protector also contains its own ventilation system allowing the catcher to feel cool and dry at all times.<br />
Many of the newest shin guards available can’t compare to the tried and tested version of the Natural series shin guards.  With double toe cap protection, these leg guards protect even the smallest of areas and allow you to be as mobile as possible.  </p>
<p>Some of the comments we’ve received for Natural gear include:<br />
•	“Provides a great view of the entire field and is comfortable”<br />
•	“My 16 year old son could not be happier with this set”<br />
•	“I would rate this set 6 out of 5 if I could!”</p>
<h3>2 – Mizuno Samurai</h3>
<p>One of the longest running and most innovative baseball equipment companies has been <a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/catchers-gear/mizuno-catchers-gear/">Mizuno</a>.  In terms of catcher’s gear, the most popular model offered by Mizuno is also one of the most affordable overall – the Samurai G4 series.  The Samurai series is a high performance line that can be used be purchased for Adult, and youth leveled catchers.  Samurai equipment also comes in numerous colors including Black, Black/Grey, Green/Grey, Red/Grey, Royal Blue/Grey, Purple/Grey, and Navy/Grey.  </p>
<p>People who buy the Mizuno Samurai Chest Protector are normally blown away with how great it feels.  With its light weight yet durable construction, most catchers don’t even notice it surrounding their chest.  Another great aspect of the Samurai chest protector is the ability it provides catchers to personalize it.  The removable neck pad allows the catcher to personalize the gear with anything they want.  No more lost gear!</p>

For the price, these leg guards would be perfect for any catcher.</p>

<h3>System 7 Mask</h3>
<p>One of the more unique pieces of the System 7 set is the individual face mask.  Many catchers nowadays prefer the full hockey styled helmet worn by most catchers.  But those looking for a more unique and traditional look should consider the System 7 face mask.  One of the greatest advantages of this face mask is that it provides the catcher with one of the best views of the entire field.  As all catcher’s know, being able to see a full field is extremely important to success.  Not only will you be able to see the game easier, but this face mask also provides an exceptional amount of deflective abilities.  Because of the curved shape used in this face mask, more padding can be applied to the most important area – directly in front of the front skull.  This curved padding also provides the catcher with a secure fit keeping the head gear in place at all times.</p>
<p>On the other hand, you may also be interested in the more modern hockey styled mask.  The All Star System 7 MVP mask is a beautiful two-tone mask that is not only sleek in design but is also one of the strongest in the business.  Constructed using the impact reducing ABS shell, this mask is guaranteed to offer you the most protection available for your head area.</p>

<p><img src = "/images/mitts/softball/softball.jpg" alt = "softball catchers mitt" class = "alignleft"></img>With the increasing popularity of softball across the nation, the demand for quality equipment is on the rise. One of the most important pieces of equipment for the game is the <a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/softball_catchersmitts"><strong>softball catchers mitt</strong></a>. The mitt is a heavily padded glove used to catch balls on the field and are used exclusively by those in the catchers position. The mitt has a large pocket for catching high speed balls securely and for providing a nice target to help pitchers make the best possible pitch.  One of the most important things to consider when looking for a proper softball catchers mitt is the size that will best fit your hand. The mitt should be sized appropriately so that it covers your hand entirely and allows you maximum mobility. It should also fit your hand well enough to prevent any discomfort during game play. Make sure that the finger stalls fit your fingers comfortably and that the wrist opening is just large enough to fit your hand through.</p>
<p>There are a number of different softball catchers mitts available all designed with different features. Many of these mitts have different amounts of padding around the palm and have different sized pockets for catching. Some also feature shock absorbent lining to protect the hand from injury when catching high speed balls.  Below we offer our recommended choices.</p>
<h3>Most Popular Softball Mitt &#8211; Easton Natural</h3>
<p><a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/go/easton_naturalmitt/"><img src = "/images/softballmitts/eastonnatural.jpg" class = "alignleft"></img></a>The <a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/go/easton_naturalmitt/"><strong>Easton Natural Series</strong></a> is one of the most popular mitts sold year after year among softball catchers.  This 33&#8243; mitt features some of the best female specific patterns available and has been designed to fit the larger sized softball of 11 or 12 inches.  One of the best features of the Natural series is its ability to be in game shape right away.  One of the worst things for catcher&#8217;s is having to break in a glove as it can take quite a bit of time!  The Natural series uses leather that makes it game ready right off the shelf.  With smaller finger stalls, and a narrowing opening, this glove makes the perfect complemt for a softball player.</p>
<h3>Best Mitt under $60 &#8211; Rawlings Champion Series</h3>
<p><a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/go/rawlings_championmitt/"><img src = "/images/softballmitts/rawlingschampion.jpg" class = "alignright"></img></a>For mitts under $60, the choice becomes clear that the best available is the <a href = "http://homeruncatchersgear.com/go/easton_naturalmitt/"><strong>Rawlings Champion Series</strong></a>.  The Champion Series features a different pattern than regular mitts which Rawlings has named the &#8220;H&#8221; pattern.  This &#8220;H&#8221; pattern is used to provide the catcher with more stability and control while behind the plate.  The deep pocket used in this mitt provides the catcher with even greater control especially for the larger sized fastpitch balls.  The Champion Series is available in different sizes as well to fit different hand sizes.  To provide the catcher with even more comfort, the Champion series features extra foam padding in the finger area along with an adjustable for a nice secure fit around the wrist.</p>

<p>Knee savers for catchers are air filled pads that are designed to protect the knee during crouching, bending and any other extensive movement done during games. They are connected to shin guards and are made to cushion and support the knee ligaments. Knee savers are very important because they protect catchers from serious leg and joint injuries that can result from constant movement on the field.</p>
<p>Knee savers can be purchased through the links above where we offer brands like Easton, Louisville, Mizuno, and Under Armour.  Many are made from special memory foam to fit the contour of your knee perfectly. Some knee savers even feature a cooling technology that keeps your knees cool and dry during gameplay. Many brands offer knee savers in a variety of colors to match the color scheme of whatever team you play for. They also offer knee savers in both youth and adult sizes so catchers of all ages can have proper knee protection during games.</p>
<p>Knee savers for catchers are a very valuable piece of equipment and are essential to anyone looking to play the position. Always be sure to wear them on the field and make sure you replace them when their material begins to wear down.</p>

<p>If you are thinking of stepping behind the plate to play to position of catcher then you should always have a comfortable and well protected softball catchers mask.  The head area is the most important area to always have protected.  With fast ball speeds (especially in fastpitch softball) there is a great risk of substantial injury to the head area by both passed balls and with foul tips.  With concussions so prevalent in today&#8217;s world, it is crucial to select a helmet that will keep your head protected at all times. </p>

<p>When thinking about picking up a brand new Softball Catchers Helmet, one should consider and look for the following:
<ul>
<li>- Protection: Ensure that the helmet you choose provides a sufficient amount of protection.  Many standards exist which leagues follow so be sure to check the regulations offered by your league.</li>
<li>- Vision: A clear field vision is critical to the catcher position so that they can see everything around them.  Having a helmet that sits directly in the eye sight can cause issues playing the position.</li>
<li>- Comfort: Carrying extra weight on top of the neck can cause many strains.  Ensure that the chest protector is light and provides a sufficient amount of padding.</li>
</ul>

<p>You can&#8217;t underestimate the value of a proper fitting set of softball leg guards when playing the position of catcher.  The shin area is one of the most critical as 95% of the time, the catcher sits in a prone and uncomfortable position leaving the shin area exposed.  Leg guards protect the catcher from runners sliding into home, and from passed balls or foul tips.  </p>

<p>As mentioned above Softball Shin Guards are a crucial piece of equipment for the catcher.  When purchasing a set of leg guards, one should look for the following features:</p>
<ul>
<li>- Protection: Finding a set of leg guards that offer full leg protection is key.  Many often do not protect the entire knee area which is why some top companies use a triple knee protection design.</li>
<li>- Mobility: Let&#8217;s face it, every once and a while a catcher needs to move and run around.  The best set of shin guards leave the catcher not even noticing them while running.</li>
<li>- Comfort: Sitting in the catcher stance for long periods of time can cause lots of strain.  Leg guards that offer further padding to assist in the area of comfort are best.</li>
</ul>

<h3>Importance of Softball Catchers Gear</h3>
<p>There are two versions of softball that catchers gear can be bought for:  slowpitch and fastpitch. With slowpitch softball, the ball is pitched from a low height and at a slow speed meaning the need for a special catchers mitt is not as high. For fastpitch softball, the ball can be thrown at speeds up to 60 mph making a more durable mitt with a larger pocket for catching very necessary. Fastpitch softball may also require catchers to wear protective gear such as facemasks, helmets, chest protectors and leg and shin guards.</p>
<p>Softball catchers gear is available in a number of different color combinations and styles that can match up with any team’s color scheme. Catchers gear can also come in a variety of sizes that can fit softball players of all ages. When selecting the appropriate softball catchers gear, it is important to ensure that everything is the proper size. Any equipment that is too loose or too tight will be uncomfortable and will hinder you from playing well.</p>
<p>When looking for a softball gear, it is best for you to examine each individual piece within the set.  Ensure that each piece is sized properly, and that the colors are appropriate for your team.  Another item to consider is the type of softball you are playing.  If you are playing fastpitch softball you may want to invest in some of the higher end gear sets as they are designed to fit the rigors of your sport.  Softball sets come in a wide price range so it is important that you choose the right set for yourself. </p>
<p>One of the best ways to bring your game to the next level is with a brand new set of softball catcher’s gear.  Your confidence will be higher and you will feel much better sitting behind the plate. </p>
