Much like in the insect world where the is known to devour it's competition, Akadema's new
catcher's mitt will do the same to conventional catcher's mitts. The Akadema patent pending Praying
Mantis is the most innovative catcher's
mitt ever to hit the market, with many unique features setting it apart
from the competition. With new patent pending "Stress Wedge"
technology, located between the index finger and thumb, the Praying
Mantis offers shock absorbing protection for the hand against injury
and sting when receiving the ball.
The Praying Mantis also offers two
additional "Finger Hammocks" allowing the fingers to be firmly
positioned and more secure in the glove.
Additional features include
the "Double-sided Slim Padding" allowing for increased pocket
size and easier ball retention. Uniquely designed shape allows the throwing
hand easier access into the pocket, resulting in a quicker glove to
hand transfer and faster times to second base.
The Praying Mantis also
features a "Double Flexhinge" which makes the glove snap closed
on contact.
