In Japan, we have baseball for hardball and rubber-ball.


In Japan, we have baseball for hardball and rubber-ball.

The difference is a ball.

Because balls to use are different,
the tools such as a glove or the bat are divided into two kinds.


硬式 野球 (hardball baseball)


The ball of the hardball baseball uses the cork for material,
and it features it that the surface has the seam of a red thread.

Including professional baseball and National High School Baseball Championship
it is generally common to point to the hardball baseball speaking of baseball.






軟式 野球 (rubberball baesball)


A ball of the rubber-ball baseball is the ball which used the rubber for material.


※Rubber-ball baseball is totally different from the softball.







  ソフトボール(soft boll)


















Difference of the glove

Hardball glove Rubberーball glove
Leather good quality leather  inferior quality than hardball glove
Endurance strength  The core of the glove is durable firmly. inferior quality than hardball glove
Price high It is cheaper than a rigid glove

When it plays hardball baseball, it is possible to use a rubber-ball glove.but a rubber-ball glove has weaker durability and strength than a hardball glove. 

   While you use it for a long term,During use, a string cuts, and a glove cannot tolerate a     shockyou may be hurt.

   Therefore we strongly suggest to hardball baseball to use a hardball glove.



 To use better leather,
a hardball glove is expensive.(even if the cheapest more than 20,000 yen),
rubber-ball one is almost half price lower than a hardball one.


When you look for a product on our homepage,
please be careful about a hard expression and rubber-ball differences:)

    Is the rubber ball (軟式 野球) the same size than the hard baseball?
    Are the weights similar?
