The Wilson A1000 DW5 Liberty is a 12-inch infield glove built around a pattern with extra reach for third base. Its open H-Web supports the catching pocket, giving a corner infielder a larger option than the compact patterns commonly used up the middle.
Full-grain leather provides a soft starting feel that forms to the player’s hand through use. The A1000 is built for a quicker break-in than a stiffer professional-series glove, while DriLex wrist lining helps manage moisture during practices and games.
Seafoam leather contrasts with black sections and white details for a bright, distinctive look. The DW5’s size makes sense for an infielder who prefers more glove for hard-hit balls and plays down the line. This is an open-web infield model, not a closed-web pitcher’s glove.
