also when looking for a new glove you should search through the store and find the brand name you like and then try and find a glove that is broken in already, beacuse usually many people try on the glove and squezz it tobreak it in, so once you find it,it is broken in already! lol. Also Easton gloves are cool too.

yea, jess is right. It totally depends on what position you play. If you're an infielder, it's best you play with a smaller glove like an 11 inch. If you're an outfielder, 12-13 is the best size. Anything bigger than that I don't recommend. good luck

choosing the right glove is all up to you as a person and what feels comfortable for you. also depending on the position obviously catchers ahve a catchers glove and first basemen can have a first basemen glove. as a frist basemen i personally don't like the first base glove so i use a normal glove, but you can't go bigger than 13 1/4 inches or else the pocket is too big and the ball really will fall out. but i suggest just going to a store and trying on different sizes and makes i personally like louisville and i have always had one but other good brands are wilson, rawlings, easton and worth. just remember to pick a size and make of the glove that feels comfortable on your hand...isn't too small exposing your wrist and isn't too big where it will fall off your hand. and with any new glove you need to break it in. put a ball in it and put a rubber band around the glove. there are oils you can use. and just practice a lot. hope this helps =]
