Give young players the confidence to own the plate next season with the EvoShield SRZ-1™ Batter's Elbow Guard. Available in a selection of colors, this lightweight, incredibly durable design custom molds to match their arm thanks to innovative Gel-to-Shell technology that transforms from soft and flexible to a hard, protective shield in minutes, so players feel protected when they crowd the plate a little.

2. EVOSHIELD YOUTH PRO-SRZ™ BATTER'S LEG GUARD

Give the gift of batter protection this holiday season with the EvoShield Youth Pro-SRZ™ Batter's Leg Guard. Its innovative design gives young players an enhanced ergonomic guard shape with lightweight protection.

3. EVOSHIELD YOUTH SLIDING MITT

Don't let your youth travel ballplayer get sidelined swiping bags. The EvoShield Youth Sliding Mitt is designed to protect young player’s hands when they hit the dirt stealing bases. Protective plates on the top and underside of the hand safeguard against spikes and jammed fingers, while protective strips stabilize the wrist. Elastic compression straps keep the mitt in place as players round the bases, keeping the lead hand safe on game-changing slides. The youth sliding mitt is recommended for players under the age of 12.

4. EVOSHIELD STANDOUT ADULT BATTING GLOVES

There’s no need for pine tar with these bad boys. The all-new EvoShield Standout Batting Gloves enhance bat grip while minimizing movement between hand and glove. A breathable four-way mesh backhand and sheepskin palm seamlessly combine comfort and durability for a batting glove that changes everything. Great stocking stuffers for the ballplayers in your holiday homestead.

5. EVOSHIELD SRZ-1™ YOUTH BATTING GLOVES

Incredible feel for powerful, confident cuts. The EvoShield SRZ-1™ Batting Gloves take full advantage of a full synthetic palm and breathable four-way mesh backhand in one of our most comfortable batting gloves to-date. All that’s left to do now is dig in and dominate.

6. EVOSHIELD CINCH BAG

Travel ballplayers need a go-to bag that’s smaller and lighter than their main travel pack. Enter the EvoShield Cinch Bag, a lightweight tote with durable drawstrings that double as carry straps. Keep the necessities in a large main compartment, and secure valuables like a phone or wallet in a zippered accessory pocket for easy access after practice or a game.

7. EVOSHIELD YOUTH CT GAME PANT

When it comes to game-day comfort, the EvoShield CT Game Pants hit it out of the park. They fit slim and stretch fully, so players can run fast and chase the ball without restriction. Darts at the knees create an athletic fit, offering freedom of movement when crouching or fielding ground balls. Durably designed for the rigors of the game, they have double-layer knees for durability and an elastic gripper waistband to keep a jersey tucked in place.

8. EVOSHIELD YOUTH PRO TEAM SHORT SLEEVE HOODIE 2.0

Prepare for action with the EvoShield Pro Team Short Sleeve Hoodie, a hooded sweatshirt designed to help athletes stay warm during pregame routines and cool-weather workouts.
