Specifically engineered for the fast-paced nature of USA cricket, these gloves utilize ultra-lightweight, high-density (HD) foam to ensure maximum hand speed at the crease.

📌 Detailed Product Description
The MACE ProLite Premium Range (Model MA4010002) is built for the "touch" player who needs to feel every vibration of the bat while remaining fully shielded. While traditional gloves can feel like "pillows" that disconnect you from the handle, the ProLite uses an anatomical split-finger construction. This ensures that the glove moves with your hand, providing 360-degree flexibility for everything from power-hitting to delicate late cuts.
The Red-White-Navy edition offers a timeless professional aesthetic. However, the true value lies in the materials. For cricketers in Naperville and the Midwest, the choice of Pittards leather is a massive advantage. Unlike standard sheepskin that can become slippery when wet, Pittards leather is treated to maintain its grip and "soft-touch" profile even during the hottest Illinois summer days. Combined with pre-bent fiber shields on the lead fingers, the ProLite series offers peace of mind against the quickest bowlers in the league.

📌 Why MACE ProLite Batting Gloves
The ProLite Engineering Philosophy
- Gravity-Defying Weight: By utilizing a proprietary HD foam blend, MACE has created a glove that provides elite safety at a fraction of the weight of traditional gear. This reduces forearm fatigue, allowing you to stay focused on your technique during long 40-over matches.
- The Pittards Advantage: We use the world's most renowned gloving leather. It is uniquely treated to stay soft and maintain its grip even after repeated exposure to sweat, making it perfect for the erratic Midwest climate.
- Fiber-Shield Technology: Every finger roll in the ProLite Premium Range contains a hidden fiber-plate. This "hard-shell" layer disperses the force of a direct hit across a larger surface area, preventing localized fractures from high-pace deliveries.
- Naperville Local Expertise: Based in the heart of the Midwest, MACE understands the American cricketer. Our gear is designed to withstand the hard-ball impact of fast, bouncy American wickets, ensuring you play with total confidence.
