About Patriot Glove
Crafting premium batting gloves and baseball equipment with meticulous attention to detail since day one.
Meet the Founder
Matthew Alleva
I’m Matthew Alleva, founder and CEO of both Patriot Glove Company and Patriot ConX. I’ve been a baseball enthusiast and advocate for youth baseball for a lifetime. I come from a long line of baseball image and have passed it on to the next generation.
The sport of baseball is magical, and we’re committed to creating the best baseball bats and batting gloves that reflect that passion. We understand that a glove is not just a “glove”, but an extension of the player and must fit like one as well.
Using our extensive knowledge and the best leather smiths in the world, we have crafted superior products for the industry, from youth baseball bats to professional-grade catchers gear and batting gloves.
Our Craft
We are a small factory making one glove at a time. Each glove is meticulously hand-crafted by the finest leather smiths in the world, where attention to detail is paramount. Whether you’re looking for batting gloves, slowpitch softball bats, or catchers gear, every product receives the same dedication.
Our gloves are not “mass produced” by the tens of thousands, causing overlooked mistakes and shoddy stitchwork. We grew tired of paying $500-$600 for top-tiered baseball and softball gloves, and figured there were millions of people just like me seeking best baseball bats and quality equipment.
Our Materials
Our Leather is sourced from G2 Nishioka Leather Factory, which is one of the most renowned leather factories in all of Japan. There are many different leathers used to create baseball gloves and batting gloves, but KIP is the preferred choice of the Pros for slowpitch softball bats and professional equipment.
The most coveted and revered of Kip is “Japanese Kip”. Japanese Kip is harvested from young calves to create the most supple, and soft leather in the world. Although soft, Kip maintains stronger thread strength than its steerhide counterpart, while also being 20% lighter.

FAQ
Custom Gloves take 4-6 weeks from order to delivery although rarely, during a promotion, it may be extended by 1 week.
Unless the change is notified quick, once we start production, there are no changes to be made to an order. PLEASE, make certain you are satisfied with your design before placing order.
There are plenty of ways to break in your glove, but the only way we see fit for a long-lasting glove is to just play as much catch as possible!
