HOT NEW PRODUCTS: A BOON FOR YOUR GAME AND FEAST FOR YOUR EYES

It's mid-season. What gear do you need to help you during the stretch run?

 

When customers walk into our stores for the first time, they all have the same look of wonderment on their faces. Children and adults alike!

Our concept is rather unique. We get visitors from all over the world coming in and telling us they don’t have anything quite like this where they are from. That’s elsewhere in Canada, the US, Europe, Australia, you name it.

It’s the smell of fresh leather emanating from our expansive glove walls. It’s all the colors you can’t find anywhere else, or the incomparable selection of batting gloves, including the most complete inventory of Bruce Bolts you’ll find anywhere. Simply said, it’s baseball paradise!

That’s because at Baseball Town, we truly breathe baseball. We constantly strive to upgrade our already unmatched inventory with the latest trends in gear, fashion, training gadgets, and all the state-of-the-art technology available.

That’s our company mission. That and the A-1 customer service our expert staff dish out daily, of course!

So, as we enter the heart of the summer, what’s new out there that might tickle your fancy and help you get through the rest of the season?

MARUCCI CATX2 LINE OF BATS

Marucci’s original CatX bats series was a raving success. Buoyed by very positive online reviews and widespread NCAA usage, Marucci’s conversion from one of the top names in wood bat manufacturing to the metal/composite market has been seamless.

Now comes the CatX, second generation.

First and foremost, with CatX2, you get the complete array of bats: one-piece alloy, two-piece composite, and two-piece hybrid (composite handle with alloy barrel). The line also covers all accreditations – USA Baseball, USSSA and BBCOR – as well as all drop weights.

Then, you get the very latest upgraded technology Marucci has to offer. For the BBCOR category, that means a refined barrel shape that increases barrel length and mass, which translates into Marucci’s biggest sweet spot to date. For the one-piece alloy, that means a whole half-inch more of barrel length, and one-quarter inch more for the 2-piece hybrid CatX2 Connect. An advanced inner wall design distributes the increased mass more evenly across the entire barrel.

As for the rest of the series, Marucci now uses its patented Liquid-Gel System integrated into the connection (for 2-piece models), the knob and the endcap to help reduce vibrations and create a smoother feel on contact than ever before.

If you’re an elite player looking for a new bat, your homework isn’t complete until you’ve checked out the CatX2.

 

BAUM BATS

Yes, they’re back!

For the past few years, Baum Bat had made the decision to strictly sell directly from their warehouse. That’s why you couldn’t find them anywhere on our website on in our stores, after being part of our expansive inventory for years.

Baum Bat’s reputation for making “unbreakable” wood bats has never been challenged. If you’re going to charge as much for your wood bats as a mid-price range metal bat, they must be much more durable than the average wood bat out there.

As a matter of fact, Baum Bats come with a 120-day warranty for the end cap and handle, and a 210-day warranty for the barrel. Most other wood bats on the market come with a 30-day warranty.

Thirty years of research and engineering experience shows. Baum Bat has developed a wood composite mix that clearly works. At first, their bats were known for their durability, but lacked the pop that elite players prioritize in their bats.

Today’s Baum Bats are as powerful as any on the market. They are also BBCOR approved for leagues that require such a certification. We carry the top-selling model from Baum Bat’s collection, the Gold Stock, made of a AAA grade maple composite.

If you’re tired of your bats breaking just past the warranty, a Baum Bat is exactly what you’re looking for. Many elite players have realized that the extra investment is well worth it!

 

MÄRK LUMBER EXCLUSIVE SWAGGER BATS

Wood bats have become somewhat of a statement work of art over the years. Players are looking for a bat they can call their own, one that matches their personality, one that stands out from the crowd, or one that simply fits their eye and looks really good.

It’s no wonder so many players now want a Lizard Skins Grip that matches their bat. Our bat grip walls empty at a quicker and quicker pace every season.

If you’re one of those hitters that treats his or her bat like royalty, we have something new for you. We’ve partnered with renowned Quebec bat manufacturer Märk Lumber to offer you bats with unique, themed artist designs. We aptly call this new series Swagger Bats!

Watch for a new model each month. Three have already been launched: MADOSA’s Ninja Turtles, Thanks Mom, and Thanks Dad. The Mother’s Day edition has already sold out, unfortunately. They are all Limited Editions, so you must hurry if you see a model that catches your eye!

 

BLUE JAYS CITY CONNECT APPAREL

Ok, this hasn’t been the best season for the team representing The Six, but have you seen those City Connect uniforms though?

Nike has done a great job with all the MLB City Connect unis. Some may not be unanimously liked, but no one can argue that all of them have created a huge buzz among fans and collectors.

The Night Mode theme has really caught on in Jays Nation and the first City Connect jerseys and caps for Canada’s franchise have been flying off the shelves everywhere!

The subtle contrast of the famous Toronto skyline on the black jerseys, paired with some red accents truly captures the feel of hot summer nights spent in the Queen City.

And what about those caps?! Wow, they may be even more in demand than the jerseys. Offered in three different models – two 5950 styles (fitted) and one 3930 (flex fit) – these hats let you show off your loyalty to your favorite team everywhere you go.

Whether you want a jersey, a t-shirt, a cap, or even a tuque for when the weather turns nasty in a few months, the new Toronto City Connect collection has you all geared up.

 

NIKE TURF SHOES

Baseball Town has been trying to get Nike cleats in our stores for a few years now, but we seem to be in a blind spot of their automated retail client selection process at the present time. Nike’s a big manufacturing machine!

But Nike knows how to make shoes, and we were able to secure a booking of their latest turf shoes, the React Vapor Drive 2.

Turf shoes are perfect for any artificial turf surface, of course, but they also cater to coaches. They are so much more comfortable than cleats yet have better grip than regular running shoes on dirt or grass.

These turfs are equipped with Nike’s proprietary Zoom Air technology, which provides the midsole with all the cushioning necessary to efficiently transfer energy while running, jumping, or on sudden changes of direction.

They are also made with a reinforced synthetic toe to add protection and durability to the shoe.

Nike’s React foam in the thick outsole contributes to the comfort level these turfs provide.

For some, the most attractive feature of the Vapor Drive 2 turfs may be that we offer them in 6 different colors, from the most conservative to the flashiest.

Last but not least, the turf stubs under the outsole are some of the most grippy we’ve ever carried in our stores. Be sure to check them out.

 

COMING SOON: LOUISVILLE CUSTOM SUPER Z SOFTBALL GLOVES

Louisville Super Z gloves are the most underrated we have on our softball walls. The premium Soft Cliff Smooth leather used is high-end, but the $219.99 price tag sure isn’t.

These gloves start off a little stiffer than most, but that is also a sign of their durability. It just may be the last glove you ever buy.

The main particularity of the Super Z is that they come with a pre-flared thumb. Almost every ball player these days plays with a flared thumb, whether they’re infielders or outfielders. It just opens up the glove’s mouth and gives it way more forgiveness on those tough plays, grounders and flyballs alike. So, hats off to Louisville for being the first to pre-shape their Super Z series for the modern player!

Another innovative exclusivity of the Super Z line is the Dual Finger Pad, which allows for two distinct index positionings on the back of the glove: standard or offset (ring finger and pinky together).

For 2024, we ordered a wide range of exclusive colors in our Super Z line that you’ll find very different from what’s available on the rest of the wall, or anywhere else for that matter.

Finally, do we have a scoop for you! Louisville will soon offer custom Super Z softball gloves. That’s right, you’ll be able to create your very own Super Z from A to Z (pun intended) using Louisville’s customizer.

For this, or any other custom glove, just visit our Custom Gloves page. Watch for the upcoming addition of the link to the Louisville customizer.

 

Keep visiting our stores or website to discover all the latest trends in the games of baseball and softball. You can always trust that Baseball Town’s got its eyes on the ball for you!
