About Louisville Slugger / TPX
Louisville Slugger, the famed maker of baseball bats, offers 5 series of baseball gloves for baseball players of any age. Their least expensive gloves sell in the $40 price range, while some of their high end TPX baseball gloves sell for over $150. Louisville’s newest “technology” is what they call “bionic technology” for their catchers and first base mitts. The company claims the bionic technology allows the mitts to open and close easier, as well as providing more effective padding.
