The ZETT Neo Status Youth Softball Kenta Imamiya Glove (Size M) is engineered for younger second basemen and shortstops developing competitive skills. ZETT's Neo Status Youth line balances professional craftsmanship with proportions suited to growing hands.
Constructed from premium cowhide with Neo Status J leather playing surface and nubuck leather lining, this glove emphasises young players' needs—responsive pocket development and comfortable wrist fit during extended practice and game play. The Size M accommodates hands transitioning from youth to near-adult sizing.
Key specifications: natural cowhide construction with Neo Status J leather surface, nubuck leather lining for comfort and moisture management, champagne gold threading providing durability and visual appeal, Size M proportions for growing hands, weight 470g (±30g), manufactured in Vietnam to ZETT standards.
The nubuck lining offers superior comfort during extended wear—managing perspiration effectively while softening gradually through use. Neo Status J leather provides faster pocket development than premium adult hides while maintaining durability across multiple seasons of competitive use. The champagne gold threading isn't decorative—it provides superior strength in high-stress webbing areas.
Ideal for: youth softball players aged 12-16 playing infield positions, players transitioning from youth to adult sizing, competitive club team members, and those seeking Japanese-crafted quality in junior equipment. The M size suits intermediate hand development.
Kenta Imamiya's signature reflects professional player input into Youth glove design. The 470g weight provides excellent feel without excessive strain. Nubuck lining develops character through use, improving comfort as the glove breaks in.
A quality investment for serious young athletes whose playing will develop significantly through this glove's lifespan.
