Once again it is time to get a new glove, and for me, it is my catcher's glove. My Wilson A1000 has lasted a little over a year, but is far too flimsy for my liking. I am mostly deciding between the Wilson A2K 32.5 or the Wilson A2000 32.5, (Both for $199). I am open to other suggestions though. My price limit is around $200 but I have a slight amount of wiggle room. So, NS baseball players, help me out.

 
My brother had both of these gloves in his bag and always used the A2k over the A2000... Once broken in i doubt the A2000 is any different, but the A2k is a little higher quality

well because both mitts are pretty much the same(haven't use either though cause i play outfield) but i would personally get the a2k because with both being the same price, the a2k has better leather on it so it would last longer, better break in, more durable, etc. than the a2000. AND GO BASEBALL!
 
You would think that, but Wilson makes amazing catcher's mitts, I have owned a Pro Preferred thinking exactly that, but turned out to be just a little better then usual. I also love the Ecco leather in the Wilson's. I'm basically heading towards anything Wilson or possibly All-Star.

And I just realized the A2K is $250, and I don't want to pay that much.
 
I used to use an a2000. Since then Ive used a pro preferred and i just recently got a heart of the hide. the hoh is by far my favorite. it just feels nicer then my other mitts and hasn't broken yet, unlike my others
 
If your planning on using this mitt for more than one year you should get something more high quality. I have to say I used to use an a2000 and a Rawlings pro preferred but my Nokona American Pro absolutely killed both those mitts in quality... Im not sure how much their catchers mitts run but they are a great baseball company. Just a suggestion.
