CARE & MAINTENANCE

Wipe away dirt with a soft, dry cloth after play. Let the glove air-dry naturally away from direct heat. Store it with a ball in the pocket and condition sparingly with a glove-safe leather conditioner. Never machine wash or fully submerge the glove.

SHIPPING & RETURNS

Ready-to-ship items usually leave Miami in 1–2 business days and arrive in 3–5 business days. Custom builds are estimated at 6–8 weeks after your specifications are approved. Standard items may be returned within 30 days; custom and personalized products are final sale except for defects or rights required by law. Read shipping and returns.

A Fastpitch Catcher's Mitt, Built for the Fastpitch Game

Fastpitch isn't slower softball. It's a different game entirely — tighter strike zones, faster pitch movement, rise-balls and drop-balls that move on planes baseball doesn't see. Your mitt needs to frame those pitches, not the ones from a 90 MPH right-hander on a Major League mound.

Kachi's custom fastpitch catcher's mitt is built with the pocket geometry, weight distribution, and pattern depth that fastpitch catchers actually need. Japanese Kip leather as the default, because fastpitch catchers warm up more pitchers per game than baseball catchers do — and the arm fatigue compounds across tournament weekends.

Fastpitch-Specific Design Decisions

  • Sizing: 32″ (youth/travel), 33″ (HS varsity / college), 34″ (power fastpitch programs)
  • Web Options: Closed · Modified Trap · Single Post
  • Pocket Profile: Tuned for the rise-ball and drop-ball framing angles specific to fastpitch
  • Palm Padding: Multi-layer, tuned for the impact profile of fastpitch rather than baseball
  • Japanese Kip Leather: Lighter weight for the high-pitch-count workload of fastpitch catching
  • Professional Break-In: Arrives game-ready, steam-shaped for the spec you ordered
  • Moisture-wicking lining for 3-hour tournament games in August heat

Customization

  • 14 leather colors + specialty fades
  • Lacing: traditional, contrast, neon
  • Personal embroidery on thumb and finger
  • Right- and left-hand throw

Built With

Japanese Kip

Lightweight, responsive feel with clean structure.

Designed by pitchers. Tested in Miami.

Kachi was started by two former MLB pitchers — Julio Teherán, two-time All-Star with six consecutive Opening Day starts for the Atlanta Braves (tied with Warren Spahn), and Carlos Castillo, who pitched for the White Sox and Red Sox across an 18-season career that took him through Japan’s NPB and Taiwan’s CPBL — where Carlos learned how Japanese Kip performs at the professional level.

Every Kachi pattern is field-tested at Kachi Baseball, Carlos’s training academy in Miami, before it goes into production. Built with Japanese Kip for a lightweight, responsive feel and clean structure. Heritage-flag embroidery is included on custom builds. Lifetime craftsmanship guarantee.
