Mizuno Pro Order gloves made in Japan are so expensive! Is it very popular in Japan?
Mizuno Pro Order is used widely by Japanese players from high school athletes to professional players. Japanese baseball places great emphasis on fielding, so high quality, easy-to-handle gloves are preferred. Dedicated players purchase top-of-the-line gloves, break it in patiently to get the perfect feel, and take good care of it to use it for many, many years. It’s a little like those great American batters who spend a lot of money on expensive bats.
