- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.ย. 2024
- For nearly 40 years, Wilson Glove Master Craftsman Shigeaki Aso has applied his love for ball gloves by designing the glove of choice for the best players in the world, and then some. He works with players at every level, gathering feedback and information to help craft the most innovative and extensive line of ball gloves in the game. As his designs continue to advance, he's become the most respected figure in the industry.
Is it just me or does it seem like Aso would relace a Rawlings glove too just because he’s a genuine guy that loves baseball?
He has lol
@@asianpotato9298link? Id like to see that! That would be like Ronald McDonald goin in Wendys with the Burger King Crown on & makin a Nacho Belgrande!
Aso is a beast. Gotta appreciate someone who loves their career as much as him
just got my first 12.5 OF A2K glove. i've ran through many gloves before and this definitely feels and looks way better, definitely the best glove in the market!
Love it! #TeamWilson
I just got an A2000 today! Already love it. Definitely gaming it 🔥
I love baseball and I have only 2 bobbleheads. One is Vin Scully. The other is Aso. Both legends. I first bought an A2000 in 1983 and I will never be without one.
I got first real Wilson glove it is a2000 it is a super skin was easy to break in my friends have Rawlings they still have no broken thief glove in yet keep doing a good job Wilson
Yes!!! I love videos like this...Like behind the scenes or tech talk is awesome
i love baseball, i wish i had aso job, i love gloves, i have bien able to repair and relace gloves sence i was 7
And beat the Hell out of them, Till they are Broken in the right way, Thanks for sharing very interesting Life skills he has etc.
Still can't get over "...teached"
i mean i like Rawlings gloves, and always have, but you gotta respect the man for the commitment and he knows everything there is to know about gloves
Please release the first glove in the video it's so amazing
Tassos Foster I believe it’s a custom
It's a custom. You can go on their website and have them make it for you!
I have almost always had Wilson gloves and I just got an A1000 and I love it.
I can imagine aso saying that soccer by is his favorite sport
I love my JA27 A2000 glove.
Somebody give Aso the Nobel Peace Prize for Ball Gloves!!
I've owned a Wilson A2000 xl since 1972. The best ball glove their is.
I wish i could afford a a2000. Ive used a team mates once and i fell in love with it. I have a rawling GG elite and its a alright glove. I would love to try out a wilson glove for my last years of baseball.
You can always check the Outlet page of Wilson.com for discounts. Just Ball Gloves and Baseball Express also have discounts on older models.
Ill will for sure check it out.
Getting a custom A2000 in July and I can’t wait!
Inspiring!
How do you get a glove with such high quality leather that only takes a couple days to break in. Great job Wilson
I always been a Wilson guy, my favorite one is my a2000 1799 for outfield and my A2K DW5 for infield. My question is where I can get a Polo shirt like ASO black with the letters in yellow like my gloves.
Sorry -- we don't sell them. They're special for Aso and his team! But we have plenty of A2000 apparel on Wilson.com.
This is an awesome video
Love it!
When you guys gonna come out with the 2017 glove days?
They'll be out before Opening Day.
Wilson Baseball / Softball So nit too long right?
Come on drop the glove day videos
The GOAT. Also that first glove that's entirely blonde 😍😍
Which glove would you recommend for an outfielder?
Can I get an information about the A2K outfield glove with single post web, what Ryan smith holds it @ 1:07 ???
That's one of our new inline A2K gloves -- more details coming soon!
bring production to America!
Wilson I have a question do you ever use pleather or just normal leather and superskin
Hi Wilson, I use an A2000 1786, and its a great glove, but one thing. I put two fingers in the pinky sleeve, but every time I squeeze, it pinch's my ring finger. I've taken to taping my ring finger, but is this just a softness issue? I've had it since December 2016
Our gloves aren't necessarily made to have two fingers in the pinky, so if you do that and it feels tight, that would be why.
If u use it a couple times with three in the pink it loosens it up
When is the glove coming out at 2:28?
I love your gloves there just too expensive
And that’s why I chose Rawlings
@@paulucha1630 i know cause rawlings is Walmart pricing and wilson is Tiffany's
Why has Wilson discontinued the Wilson catcher's mitt wrist guard? Is there any way I could still get one? Please?
is brandon phillips gonna make a new glove with the braves color way this year?
Yep -- he'll have a new DATDUDE GM.
why don't you have blonde lace
Will Aso tour Australia? If so when? I want to meet him.
Is Copper the orange tan on customizing?
Are all the A2Ks still made in Japan only?
What color glove is that at 2:30
BaseBallReviews black and red dp15
That's one of the new A2Ks, with our new Copper leather color.
BaseBallReviews copper & black
Can't wait for the Vietnam factory 🏭👲👲👲👲👌 that one must be huge.
..Super Walmart size!
Please offer more colors for your gloves and more traditional colors.
i need a glove like a 2k were can you buy that
If Darth Vader spoke Japanese he would sound like Mr. Aso
what color is at 2:36
When will u guys get better lace??
We're always looking to improve our lace!
At 2:36 what color is that?
Wilson will have blonde lace now? That'd be awesome. And what is the color of the glove at 2:34?
We're working on blonde lace -- we know people want it!
That'd be so cool! is it hard to perfect the blonde color or something?
Yes -- we have quality standards we're always trying to meet, and we want to make sure our blonde lace is as good as it can be.

i love baseball, i wish i had aso job, i love gloves, i have bien able to repair and relace gloves sence i was 7
and yet you still cant spell
there was a rumor on some message board when aso steps down ryan personally mentioned your name and this post specifically, of course you have to prove your skills and know how in front of them. so at 7, 8 years old and especially now being the sort of past your prime age of 11 you're gonna have to wow the s... out of them
